If you hired Trump's idiots to handle a demolition, they would:

1. Bring the building down on their own heads, with bystanders inside.

2. Destabilize the neighboring buildings to the point where they also had to be demolished.

3. Flood the site and cause a giant gas leak.

4. Use the self-made catastrophe as evidence that more buildings are dangerous and need to be demolished
It's a mistake to dismiss them all as idiots. MAGA people have very different values from you, and you need to consider the possibility that they are comeptent and malicious.
Seconding this. Their reasoning is unsound to the point of comedy, their arguments are nonsense, they have a fundamental misunderstanding of science, technology, society, etc.

Because they don't fucking care. They have an agenda. Sometimes it's rooted in bigotry, religion, or just antisocial beliefs, but they have an agenda and they can (and will, and are) execute it.

4. Pat yourself on the back while people complaining about egg prices cheer as their kids die of measles.
