    I mean he’s technically not wrong. This is what everybody wanted. Project 2025 was published for like almost a whole year before the election.

        Yeah!! 10 years of bombardment, exhaustion after years of squeezing the middle class, bullshit algorithms, and a centrist media, is no excuse for confusion over what’s real and what’s urgent!!!
