What came to mind was the story in The Wave of the woman who tied herself in her bed to successfully prevent 4D STS abduction. So the would be abductors came to the woman and offered her a deal that they would not abduct her if she untied herself. She agreed to the deal, untied herself, and the abductions continued.
I think Trump's 2016 victory was a sort of tying to the bed. Now I imagine Trump accepted some sort of deal to untie himself, only to see them break the deal immediately and resume the abductions.
