It does feel like we had strategically won before "it" (the visible war via Trump) had started, but that was contingent on the public (anons and normies) acting in certain ways. So we were given the impression of being safe (a semi-truth) in order to make us act towards safety, but in a way that was sufficiently indirect and uncertain as to not cause complacency and dereliction. A fine line to tread: creation of a self-fulfilling prophesy without overdoing the "hand of God" versus "hand of man".
