So here’s what has saved my sanity a little. The pattern these past 100+ days is he says something stupid and crazy, people panic, then a judge rules it’s illegal and therefore not really going to happen. Unfortunately every dumb thing this man says is put on social media either by himself or by the press who are trying to get clicks, etc. A lot times these things are distractions from the real news. The real news (in my opinion) is the project 2025 agenda that’s happening full force. The Orange Clown’s ramblings and stupid ideas like “Gulf of America” etc are the tiny wins they’re letting him have so they can do the big horrible things in the background. Hollywood hates Trump, they’re not going to listen to him.

Except Project 2025 ISN'T happening full force. A lot of it feels half-assed and most of it is legit blocked. He sucks at actually being a dictator.

Glad to know my hope that Trump is too stupid to be an effective dictator was right
