Yeah, honestly I used to view the likes of Putin as a rational chessmaster. Life is teaching me a great deal, especially that leaders are not powered by raw intellect. Rather, it is the willingness to be assertive that separates the ordinary person from a leader, be they good or foul.

Why not both? More often than not, evil favors bold stupidity over cautious thinking.
Agreed. Unfortunately, we live in a world where Project 2025 is being supported by the 1%.
Personally, I think Free America and the Allies would be teaming up with the Mexican Cartels. If anyone can terrorize the Trump Regime, it would be them. IMO, it wouldn't be surprising if Mexico and the Allies promise to give away Texas to the Cartels as a spoil of war.
Odds are, you will sound like a British loyalist a century from now, who thought things would never change in their British colony. We live in a "fantasy world", where a mad king is sending the innocent to die in El Salvador without reason nor justice.
The only question is at what point people discard the things that they lived by. Common sense, the rules, whom they believed in, and more.
That changes when militias are formed. Mutual aid is about people supporting each other - be it in the courtroom, battlefield, kitchen, or classroom. Neighborhoods filled with ICE Breakers, would mean that this lady and others wouldn't need more than two guards. An potential victim can call for help, while the guards delay ICE. Just set up checkpoints that inspect suspicious vehicles.
Seriously. This is a civil war brewing, and ordinary people can become a state unto themselves if they are willing to create their own laws. Trump doesn't believe in any law but that which emanates from his asshole, so why should anyone obey?
A negative world country?
People who want to form Rainbow Panthers, especially persecuted minorities. They just need food on the table, munitions, and some sort of goal. Breaking ICE who assault schoolchildren and other innocents would certainly be a goal.
Also, the lady is an attorney. She probably has some savings, connections, and a willingness to go pro bono for people who need an public defender against the Trump Regime. The real roadblock is for people to accept that the 'norms' are dead, and to act accordingly. Considering we have a rapist of a president who intends to butcher Americans, I don't think militias against ICE are a stretch.
She should hire (trustworthy) security guards willing to kill. Doge Boys will be coming for her, simply because Trump's deranged word is law.
I suspect an upsized version would be very popular range and skeet targets.
Musk can be put in a Starship and sent on a collision course with that Tesla he launched. Clarance gets drawn & quartered by his motor coaches. Trump is given a hamburger that is extra greasy and purposely designed to cause medical complications. DeSantis can be put into a Florida Disneyland teacup ride, but set to the highest setting for a dozen hours straight. RFK is left in a vat of leeches.

I have always assumed that I wouldn't be wanted. Helping build stuff looks neat, but I am getting old, raised in the boondocks, only have a high school degree, and am autistic. It is my guess that no one would want the likes of me, because there are many other people who are more capable and desperate.
