Ive always taken control to mean that Patriots have control of the direction events are leading. Ive never thought it meant they have full control of every detailed action of the enemy.
Look at it this way: After the breakout from hedgerow country in the late summer 1944, it was clearly obvious the direction the war in Europe was taking. Germany was defeated, the ending was written, it was just a matter of writing the story that led to the ending.
But Germany was not without resources to make that story painful and they did. The allies had an entire German army group surrounded and all they had to do was close the vice yet they let them escape at the Falaise Gap. This army group defeated Montgomerys Operation Market Garden (immortalized in the movie A Bridge Too Far) and participated in the Battle of the Bulge.
The Allies had almost total control of the battlefield yet the Germans still were able to force heavy losses.
Similarly, after the Battle of Midway, the Japanese were on the run for the remainder of the war yet the war in the Pacific continued for 4 more years.
You can make similar analogies in sporting events. One team is obviously superior but they dont win 10,000 to nothing. Their opponents do have some control over how the story is written just not the ultimate result.
Its always been my opinion that this is the type of control Patriots have when Q said Patriots in control.
Edit: In fact you can draw comparisons to whats happening in Ukraine right now too. Nobody thinks that Ukraine can defeat Russia yet Russian boys still go home in body bags.
We are at war and thats how wars work.
