    I do love a good conspiracy, but this administration got rid of competent people on purpose. Everything is helmed by people with the foresight and capabilities barley rivaling toddlers. If they actually tried to plan a false flag attempt, it would have been so transparent and likely not even gotten off the ground. This most recent attempt is simply a symptom of the broad dysfunction, irresponsibility, incompetence, and arrogance of those remaining.

    Prime example of Hanlon’s Razor.

      The issue with applying Hanlon’s Razor to this regime, is that it makes the assumption that the people are working in good faith. We know that no one in Trump’s cabinet is working in good faith. They have shown time and again that they are malicious individually, and as a group. So it follows, that you can attribute most of what they do to malice, and only some to incompetence.
