Trump is doing exactly what the people who put him there want him to do. Imagine you wanted to rob a bank, and you managed to acheive the ability to unlease Godzilla on the city. He’ll knock the bank building down, opening the vault for you to plunder, and keep emergency services too busy to stop you. You could loot the entire city, and when it’s over, buy the decimated land for cheap and get the government to pay you to rebuild it. There’s literally no downside to you, because all the harm is done to other people.
There’s no normal, and there never was.
