They are literally snatching people off the streets and sending them to foreign torture prisons. They are denying due process. They are paying for elections. They are daily destroying how the government works. It's only a distraction in the way that the shock and awe tactics are diversionary, that is, to overwhelm us with their evil plans. So far every fucking nutty thing he's proposed he's tried to implement with varying degrees of success. There is NOTHING to indicate this is him just diverting attention from his other evil shit. It's all the same evil shit.
