I heard that Scott didn't espcially like Patton and was playing him as a fascist. Another one of those things where you can't make an anti-war war movie because people never get the "Anti" part.

If I had to guess, he was forced out for not subverting the elections fast enough. That’s pure speculation. OR he stood up for the agents who were demoted for not indicting the people who allegedly threatened Katie Miller. But most likely the former.

And I raise that bc it LOOKS like someone tried to put electoral considerations above fascist ravenous for a few weeks and the fascists made clear they would not stand by it. We REALLY underestimate the extent to which Trump is terrified of his own fascists.

Donald Trump is so crude, stupid, and lowbrow, he has no appreciation for the majestic beauty of our national parks. If a place doesn't have gaudy gilding, flashing neon, and ringing cash registers, he doesn't see worth.
