While simultaneously causing one of the biggest mass casualty events in what was once the United states.

I like your optimism.

I honestly think their strategy at this point might be to incur so incredibly much in very-real damages on a variety of fronts that the courts are left with the choice of either letting them get away with most of it (so, most folks aren't compensated for the harm they suffered) or forcing the US into abrupt bankruptcy (same outcome for the harmed, but also the US enters a severe depression instantly).

WHEN they screw this up any litigation will be a "witch hunt" and they'll simply refuse to pay any settlement awarded, assuming they allow it to get that far.

I think it’s a centrist position to expect DOGE will need a bailout.
