Great article. I hope Trump reads it.
I think Trump is a high stakes gambler. He keeps letting the enemy push us to the brink of civil war, because it raises the stakes! He fully intends to win, but he intends to win bigly, so raking in a small win early isn't enough for him, he wants the enemy to unmask itself completely before he strikes. When the fascists are going for broke there's no longer any doubt who they are, and their fall will be that much greater.
