I'm from one of the former Eastern block countries. One of the lessons I learned is that the revolution, the uprising is unimaginable - until it happens. It will still be a lot of work and effort but never despair, the change is just one day away and you never know if that day is tomorrow or not.

I think there's a lot of truth to this, especially since his comments about how Portland burned down etc. But at the same time, this is a guy who "adjusted" the hurricane projections with a sharpie - so I wouldn't underestimate his will to bend reality in order to fit his own narrative.
