It's feeling very, "worst so far" these days. You might need to prepare for reality calling your bluff.
I'm sure it'll be worse after Trump. He's an idiot. Imagine someone with the same agenda, but actually smart and subtle.
Yeah I mean project 2025 is not his thing, it's the heritage foundation's thing they've been scheming for years.
He might be an idiot, but he's a useful idiot. I get the feeling there are smart people at play, just using trump as a puppet more or less.
Edit: I guess my point being, yeah it can always get worse, but i feel like we're already pretty far along in terms of how bad politicians can be. The way it gets worse after this i think is them gaining more and more control over the government.
