      only far far worse

      The aim in a 2nd term for Trump would be to immediately politicize thousands of government positions that are apolitical and require years of education and experience to be competent. The administration felt hampered by being told “no” and “that’s illegal” and “we can’t do that” by so many of these long-standing staffers that they want to sweep away more than just cabinet and executive positions, but also thousands of jobs that literally keep the government going. It’s a GOP wet dream… say that the government is useless and inefficient to get into office and implement changes that make those claims true. But beyond that, it immediately sets up even more executive power which has been their aim since Nixon.

        Or to put it into perspective, the US president, thanks to the Supreme Court, now has all the power Hitler needed a false flag operation and emergency powers for. Step 2 in establishing a fascist system is always putting loyalists in key positions and jailing (better: killing) any opposition.

        Project 2024 is really just Projekt 1933 with a fresh coat of paint.

        Thousands of government and military positions. Don’t believe for a second that he’d restrict himself to civilian agencies and bureaucracies.

    Because surrounding oneself with incompetent loyalists has never gone wrong for a dictator before…

    Fuck the media, fuck their delusional lying ways:

    “Project 2025 is just reinstating something we had before.”

    No it’s fucking not.

    He’s such a pathetic piece of shit. Watching people fighting for jobs with what seems to be affection for dearleader, is not affection, you sad clown.

      Because any “official act” by the president is now legal, presidents are now kings, and the only treasonous thing is to not support anything and everything the president says or does
