The authors of the Project 2025 blueprint for destroying the federal government and creating a dictatorship are the ones who frighten me. They have a clear plan for eliminating democracy and centering all power in the executive. Trump craves money and praise, the more the better. So long as the Heritage Foundation extremists keep him happy on those two fronts, Trump will most likely allow them to do anything they want, especially as he descends further into dementia and no longer remembers what he has promised.

I'm sure he did, but the typo definitely works. 3catwoman3 Apr 27 #17

I'm good with "loser." One of the commenters mentioned how he leans forward when standing. brush Apr 27 #31
