In a sense, none of them know what they're doing.

Many of them just don't know at all. They've believed the lies and don't realize that they've just elected a psychopath who is going to at the very least do considerable harm.

Some of them think they do know. They're self-serving sacks of shit who look forward to tyranny and the destruction of democratic institutions because they think they're going to benefit and they dont give a shit about all of the people who are going to suffer. But they don't realize that in the end, they're going to suffer too.

Yep. This. They are not students of history, that's for sure. People cheering on destruction are just as likely to be underfoot as anyone. Unless you are some kind of broligarch and are able to take your billions and skip off to a safe place - and with a military like ours, I guess no place on the planet is truly "safe" for someone the maga-infected State wants to get, sooooo, maybe even the broligarchs should not be trying to bring this about...
