Trump chaos

Last night, between 11:00 and 11:30 p.m., I downloaded an electronic copy of Gary Lachman's 2018 book Dark Star Rising: Magick and Power in the Age of Trump. I enjoyed the only other Gary Lachman book I've read so far, and I thought it would be interesting to see an occult-savvy political normie's take on 4chan meme magic and such. I read the introduction immediately and then, since I'm already reading several other books, set it aside to read later.

One of the things Lachman says in the introduction is this:

Trump seems to be something of a "natural" chaos magician too. . . . If one word captures for many the character of Trump's time in office so far, it would have to be "chaos."

This afternoon I checked my blogroll. I saw a new post by Andrew Anglin, which was said at 4:30 to have been posted "17 hours ago" -- meaning around 11:30 last night, the same time I downloaded Dark Star Rising and read the introduction associating Trump with the word chaos.

I haven't looked at the post yet, but the title is "Why is Trump Creating All of This Chaos? Is It a Conspiracy?"
