Performative Secrecy

All of the performance, none of the secrecy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Because (unbelievably to the rest of the world) Trump still has 43% support indicating enough of the public is either
a) in favour of his policies
b) ignorant of his policies

Either way, there's just not enough support (and too much fear) to power a general strike.

Nope, not scary at all.
I suppose the Gestapo had to advertise too back in the day.
