Trump places billionaire in charge of cutting spending and signs orders to do so.
Congress points out he is not authorised to do that without their support.
Billionaire starts shutting employees out of PC and announces the departments are broken beyond repair as he forcibly shuts them down.
Err sooner the US relises they are in a civil war the sooner you can stop this. Trump etc seems to be, intentionally trying to shut down the ability for the 3 branches to function against him. He is also moving supporters into military roles.
