It feels like every pick of this administration is just someone who has a motivation for corruption.

I expected a repeat of his first term. Which honestly was quite uneventful. This is not.

They were quite candid with their intent. Aside from him casually/flippantly brushing off Project 2025 during his campaign (when it was clear that his campaign was deeply connected to it), it was tremendously obvious to anybody paying attention that things would be much different during round two, and in a more aggressive manner.

You had your head in the sand. If you voted for him, this is your fault. Damn you.

Downvotes be damned.

What's the point of phrasing this as though you're off to the gallows for your beliefs? It's an internet forum.

Just a simple acknowledgement that I am aware that my comment is unconstructive and goes against the desire/rules of this space. If I'm going to be an asshole, I usually try and acknowledge that I'm aware of it.

I understand. It's hard to be constructive when it was so blatantly clear a second term was going to be a disaster of epic proportions and here we are.
