that everyone thought he was simply "riffing," that has instead comprised his more than 150 Executive Orders. The MSM discounted or downplayed them on the campaign trail. Look where THAT got us. Downplaying his utterances as mere fantasy or "just TRUMP," got us Project 2025 being rapidly enacted, got us the Elon Musk chainsaw and got us a revenge-fearing Congress that capitulates. Our only hope is US and the courts, but mainly we, the people.
