So, I don't know how many people know this, but several Republican organizations, including the Heritage Foundation, Turning Point USA, the Family Policy Alliance, the American Conservative, and others are working with former Trump administration officials to develop a comprehensive plan to remake the entire federal government into Trump's image if he wins the election.
They published a playbook titled "Project 2025" this year in which they spell out how they're going to take on the "deep state" by stocking ever agency - FDA, State Department, DHS, USAID, EPA, NIH, etc. - with MAGA loyalists to cut every DEI program, end all support for LGBTQ+ people, eliminate food stamps, cut humanitarian aid to Palestinians, and so on.
All Republicans are at least as bad as Trump, if not worse.
They wanted this to get out, for it to scare people. We should be scared, really.
My dad was awful and rigid and then I found Nazi shit and gay letters when he died.
All of these people are f'd in the head in some way. They are very sure of their rightness. They CANNOT be reasoned with. You are a bug to be corrected if possible or simply squashed.
It would be foolish Pollyannaism to assume that the other Republicans in the pack would feel any scruples against taking this fascistic plan for remaking the government off the shelf if they found themselves in the Oval Office. Well, maybe Chris Christie, but that's why he stands even less of a chance.
I think that's likely, but I'm not entirely convinced. For example, I remember hearing that the Kochs were disappointed when Trump was nominated in 2016. Would you care to develop the point?
