[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would take a handful of republicans in the House and senate to end this before tomorrow morning.

Alas.[/quote]

I don’t think it’s as hopeless as you think.  The hits are adding up. People I know who live outside of DC and voted for Trump, did not vote for this. They’re losing jobs and worrying about how to find work. The hat trick the project 2025 people want to perform was not on the ballot, and most people would never vote for it.  The 18% that are falling for it, are untouchable koolaid drinkers, but the rest aren’t.[/quote]

what did they vote for then? racism and xenophobia?[/quote]

No, they thought he would be better for the red state economies.  That’s not working out at all.[/quote]

I don’t get this. He’s doing exactly what he said he’d do. [/quote]

No he’s not.  Project 2025 was not on the ballot.  He  disavowed it. Those of us inside the beltway knew he was FOS but his voters didn’t believe he was going to do this.  They figured he’d deport some people and lower their taxes, ease some regulation.  Not decimate the world economy, create global instability, and try to be a dictator.[/quote]

It was totally obvious what would happen if he was elected. Now we are all porked bc people are idiots. [/quote]

Obvious to you and me yeah.  I think calling his voters idiots, isn’t really hitting the mark.  Sometimes people in DC really forget how little regular people have to think about the things we do.[/quote]

+1 I have met a good amount of people that vote but are simultaneously apathetic and don’t care all that much. A lot of people heard low groceries and no tax on overtime didn’t hear much else. [/quote]

It wasn’t obvious to me that the GOP in Congress would give away their power so tamely. Sure I expected them to run away from the microphones and say they hadn’t read Trump’s most recent inanity. I expected them to be singularly focused on their tax cuts for billionaires. I did not expect them to sit by while the president ignored their appropriations or to shrug their shoulders as he destroys the U.S. economy. [/quote]

I am not sure why that wasn't obvious...the GOP has been circling the toilet bowl ever since Newt Gingrich came on the scene, and it got worse with the tea party and the "freedom" caucus. So here we are.[/quote]

But the tea party and freedom caucus were all about bringing down the deficit. That’s not what the “blueprint” they passed for the budget does. It’s all so inconsistent and nonsensical. [/quote]
No they weren’t. You’re still falling for it.[/quote]
