They literally said what they were going to do. Project 2025 documents a plan to systematically take apart the apparatus of the federal government, and that's exactly what they're doing. Now, a lot of Americans are like shockedpikachu.jpg "I never saw this coming!"
Like, power to those who were paying attention and tried to get the word out, but 77 million Americans voted for the Republicans, and another 90 million didn't bother voting. 75 million who voted for Democrats represent only about 30% of Americans, so they're in the small minority compared to Republican voters and everyone else who couldn't give a shit about the Republican's public plan to dismantle the country.
And even of the 75 million who voted for Dems, what proportion recognized the existential nature of the election? I don't know how to get numbers for that, but it clearly wasn't high enough.
But he said he didn't know anything about that! Surely the guy who's been famous for decades for lying all the time about everything wouldn't lie about that, would he?
You see the frustration of rational voters. We can't just vote harder when a candidate is telling existential threats to hold my beer, but have to watch the distant #1 choice be "couch" while the only option we're offered for "maybe don't destroy everything" comes in at #3.
