Generally, that is, preponderantly, but not in every specific, the history lessons they believe are not the same as ours:
- They see GHWB having gotten off without consequence (until opening the funeral notes) for three US presidential assassination attempts (one successful).
- They see HRC having gotten off without consquence for her sale of US assets, e.g, U1 with a heft "commission" to the CF, all kinds of pay-for-play millions, again to CF, State Secrets with proceeds again to CF. Plenty of residual brownie points (fungible US good will): to get Bill $500k to help him with expenses not covered as a former president., etc. etc., etc. - They see plans moving apace at the UN, where Agenda 21, Agenda 2030 and preparation for sustainable development will herd the world into Global totalitarianism.
- They see their 13-families minions by the several thousand having infiltrated the US government, and commensurately, every other government of significance around the world. Those governments' apparatuses in large part are controlled by DS'ers that have more loyalty to the NWO vision than anything they imagine happens in "fly-over" country, for example.
- They see historically that the international DS (Illuminati's) network of child trafficking and paedophilia has sustainingly delivered on young people's bodies for sex, ritual and the drug adrenochrome, though there are clear threats to that that PDJT has leveled. Complicit CEO's have been falling like cluster flies after the first big frost, largely out of threat and fear that their amassed fortunes can be confiscated by PDJT's initiatives to end human trafficking (EO 13818, 12/20/2017). To gain the appointments and success they've enjoyed through their major companies, they've been roped into participating in rituals that--if they became known to the general US population--would spell large prison sentences, fines, and public scorn. They know what any jury of their peers would have to say about their complicity in such things, and the evidence will have them dead-to-rights. Agreeing to what amount to plea bargains has been part of PDJT's Art of the Deal.
Between assets recouped and the Fed's being put under the control of the Treasury (with full nationalization soon to follow), PDJT will have a generous amount of breathing room to get the economy moving and growing again after the coronavirus chapter gets put to rest.
PDJT's Fed nationalization will *BOOM!* put an end to British bankers looting our financial system.
But they didn't expect to be here. PDJT was supposed to be cowed into resigning. Mueller, the MSM's and FBI/DOJ/Intel Community heads' charges of Trump-Russian collusion against PDJT were supposed to make a large majority of the citizenry demand PDJT's removal. A Dem House after the 2018 election was supposed to make an impeachment a piece of cake, with the only challenge turning enough votes in the Senate by "virtue" of the public hue and cry against him, with vulnerable Republicans agreeing to vote against to keep their seats. It just didn't work that way, but if the hadn't had such over-the-top players in Schiff, Nadler, Schumer and Pelosi, it could have been a lot closer.
But what keeps them going?
- They collectively own 80+% of the world's real estate, I understand.
- They command the world's most advanced war technologies, out of public view in places like Area 51, Section 4, national laboratories (even like that BSL4 in Wuhan) and the thousands of Deep Underground Military Bases, stocked for many years for many thousands of people. If things get really bad, they'd be fine with an Earth-scarring nuclear exchange that would cover them by 60' of dirt and rock.
Stupid? Have you seen the movie "A Boy and His Dog"?
How many on autopilot? Gosh, I don't know, but a preponderance have Hunter Biden-like traits and expect it all just to be dropped on their laps as if their mother was Gloria Vanderbilt.
Do expendable minions care? There's always been lots of money to rescue them from their profligacies. If it came down to survival, loyalty to the families has always been known as the way to stay in good graces or the fastest way out if they were to be so stupid to choose otherwise. See how it's worked for the Clintons, Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Rosenstein, Biden, W, Lynch, Barry, Rice, etc!
The families are running satan's breeding program here on earth. They all know they're all minions to their leader. Sex addiction is a huge incentive for many and getting such (adrenochrome) fixes outside the families' care would be next to impossible.
Now on to a possibly related topic (a theory sucked out of my own thumb...): Wuhan being a central location for adrenochrome production, I believe there is now an acute shortage of that which used to be in ample supply (read synopsis of Al Gore in this.), such that we have examples such as this:
and... 
And you remember the Medium article talking about the toxicity of disasociated oxidative iron ions?"
In the same webpage concerning Al Gore's abundant adrenochrome (above) occurs the following paragraph:
What is the likelihood a world-wide adrenochrome shortage triggered in part by a PDJT crackdown on human trafficking would be juxtaposed alongside the COVID-19 pandemic that coincidentally causes the same kind of effect as out-of-whack adrenochrome dosage fluctuations? Could a panicking Illuminati be implicitly demanding that the world's largest medical establishments focus on solving their adrenochrome problem, beginning at perhaps the world's largest adrenochrome producing location but brought to the doorstep of essentially all the world's countries?
You'll recall how urgent they found it to build a 1000-bed "hospital" with the iron bars on all the windows in just a few short days? And why they were dragging away researchers and squelching doctors? And why they reportedly were cremating people (presumably COVID-19 victims) while they were still alive?
Could they be trying to hold hostage and or blackmail the world's greatest economies to focus all their energies on "finding a solution" to their problem? A problem that reportedly killed 60 Catholic priests, several top Iranian politicians, Hollywood elite left and right, etc., etc., etc?
