Some thoughts about trump and Project 2025...

First off, let me start by saying that I actually believe that trump doesn't really know what is in Project 2025, beyond the more basic proposals. I say that because he is widely known to not be a reader. I doubt he has read anything more than a few pages long since he left school all those many decades ago. He is stupid and decidely uninterested in learning anything he doesn't already think he knows, which ain't a whole lot. No way he's read a 900+ page document, not on this earth.

However, hanging this document around his neck as an albatross he can't get rid of is a great strategy. It's not really trump himself that I fear on this one issue. What I fear is all of the assholes and hangers on that follow in his greasy wake like a pack of Jackals. Those guys, the Millers and the Flynns and the Bannons et al are the ones to be feared. They all know they could never win an election, their hope is to get their guy in office. Without trump, their power fades to nothing. No decent politician would let them so much visit them in their offices.

trump is not a strong man, not in the traditional sense. His strength lies in the coterie of supporters, all of whom seem to have evil intent with sick ideas they wish to foist off on the American people. trump will not be interested in controlling them, except that he demands "loyalty" and fealty to the trump name and persona. All of those toadies are perfectily fine with kissing trump's ass in public as long as they can do their evil in background.

Definitely continue to call it the "trump Project 2025" every chance you get. trump won't actually carry it out, but his handlers definitely will if we give them the chance. No way can we let trump and his evil minions take over our government.
