Isn’t everything they do a stunt of some kind? They don’t govern.

I would call it "political theater" or "culture war". There's no even pretending that any of this is remotely legitimate anymore. Its just persecution of political enemies to make others fear them.

I hope it comes back to bite them when they're no longer in office and in control of the DOJ.

He's just trying to create a personality so people don't wander away when orange Jesus dies.
