I think the piece is more nuanced than some read it as. As Seel wrote, ""They" is intentionally triggering and... increasingly plausible."

I wrote a song way back called. Who are “they ?” Mostly about paranoia and victimhood. As I recall English classes, they is supposed to be used once you’ve established the noun of who they are.

Yes, I do think the use was intentionally left and ambiguous so that you could fill in the blank depending on which possible group you think may want to off Trump. I think most of us know it is a range of people even some Republicans. (Not that they would do it but they join a chorus of demonizing Trump. Heck, his VP once did!

To me it’s not Democrats per se, but again a broad swath ranging from the administrative state to the techno – intelligence complex, academic eggheads and we might as well thrown in the big gov media. I think most Trump supporters know the faction as a whole and many know, though Trump is far from a Messiah, it is spiritual warfare. The “they” are the proponents of chaos and unbridled sin. In other words, the Godless.
