JFC is their moto seriously "The people voted for major reform"? First, they barely won and are acting like there was some monumental landslide victory.

Second, none of what they're doing is actually what they campaigned on. Trump actually tried to distance himself as much as possible from Project 2025 during the campaign.

2/3 voting age Americans did not vote for this. That's a fact.

They should have voted to prevent this, but only half of them did. They other half lived through the first Trump admin and decided that it was not worth a few minutes of their time to prevent it. They didn't have to cross an ocean or fight a war... they needed to visit a website to get registered and the mail a form (or stand in line for a while) to vote, and they didn't.

In other words, only 1/3 of Americans voted against this.
