4. Yes.
It is worth pointing out that the foundation of their approach is to maintain power. And although they define their form of government as "democracy," and to a very large extent believe it is, they are delusional. The causes of their delusions are a combination of greed and fear.

It is likewise important to recognize that this is not something that has just happened. It has been a long and complicated process. This administration does not stand alone in intent. I would strongly suggest DUers read James Carroll's "House of War," which provides a fascinating insight into how our country has journeyed from WW2 to here.

Perhaps most importantly, it is important to be aware of the fact that we can and will survive this phase in US and human history.
