At this point it's kind of entertaining to see him keep raising the stupidity bar. Absolutely fucking terrifying too, but still also kinda entertaining.

I suspect that is their strategy (if you could call it that): boggle the populations minds and then do what you want.

That's exactly the strategy. He's basically a human (term used loosely) "Denial of Service" attack on our collective psyche.
Constant output of garbage information we're forced to evaluate, until we're overwhelmed, overloaded, and shut down from being mired in so much sheer volume of stupidity.

The only upside... the only one, is that maybe it'll get so bad that if Republicans lose control that maybe it will be a long time before we again give them control. Maybe.

And the news cycle can't keep up or spend appropriate amounts of time/outrage on the things that are criminal, abhorrent and hurting people.
Throw a bunch of stupid shit to the media, let them feast. Sneak around while they are busy and get the truely hurtful stuff into law (or just skip the law part, and do it). -

People have said that, but I disagree. I think that fascists really are that stupid. It looks like a strategy because a lot of mainstream media has been happy to embrace the chaos, all they want is that 24-hour news cycle. But if you look at reliable political writers, people who think long-term, none of Trump's bullshit baffles anyone.
If you think about the tariffs, he was trying to flex because he's a narcissist, and people around him, perhaps including himself, were getting richer through insider trading. It's a basic scam. Everyone understands it. No one is baffled.

Yeah 'strategy' usually implies intelligence.
This is more of a stratidiocy. I hate that it has been working - ao far.
