It does feel like people of power know something we don't. That he's really tied to Russian mafia or something worse. They look like they don't dare to face him while he's just a goofy dementia patient. It's odd.

More likely it's about the billionaires backing Trump. As well as the mindless cult that will always obey him, and do things like Jan 6th. His side has a lot strength on it, and a lot of people ambitious people who get things done.

Those rumors about Trump being a russian asset start to carry some weight yhough. I mean, we can't officially back this claim and there doesn't seem to be any proof but it's at least "interesting" to notice the patterns in his behaviour.
