25. Yes, that's all true.

But I think Eloon, Trump, and the others found out that it's going to be TONS harder than they thought. In fact, I think a LOT of the things Trump wanted to do when he took office again are turning out to be hella harder than he expected, which could turn out to be his downfall.

He's taken a lot of lumps lately, between the public reaction to his trying to dismantle the federal government, worldwide reaction to the tariffs, outrage over the immigration raids, etc., etc. His approval ratings are WAY underwater right now. I don't know what's going to happen, but I feel a lot more hopeful than I did a couple of months ago.

I know some people have already given up, but I'm nowhere near ready to do that. Not after this past Saturday. The American people aren't going to let our democracy go down if we can help it, and we have only just begun to fight!
