Yeah, that's fair, though it seems like they're more so dropping the facade under Trump. This isn't exactly a covert action or taking the time to manufacture consent in the power structure, instead is Trump blasting stuff out on social media after just doing it.

Definitely on the facade thing. There are two political factions in the US: "Mask On" and "Mask Off". Each of these political theatres have a huge fanbase.
