As far as I can tell, the goal of Donald Trump is to tear down enough of the federal government that our country can be controlled by the oligarchs. But the problem is that it also makes it possible for our country to be controlled or taken over by a foreign power. So far, he’s corrupted the courts and neutered Congress. He’s eliminated professionalism in the DOJ and all other parts of government that could possibly push back against corruption by him and his people.

The Democratic Party needs to think about this in terms of raw power, not how to govern. They should all be campaigning right now for House and Senate seats, because campaigning is the only thing that will force Republicans to put restraints on the fascists in the Executive.
