I expected to be offended and/or astonished by a ridiculously transparent bit of sanewashing here, but you know… I think I actually might agree.
It does seem to be a valid point - Gaetz is a grotesquely destructive demagogue and Trump sycophant, but he’s also a buffoon, and that’s undoubtedly better than a grotesquely destructive demagogue and Trump sycophant who’s also a smart and devious and highly skilled politician.
This logic is going to keep getting trotted out throughout the trump presidency. In some cases it’ll be true. In this case I think it could be. In many cases it won’t be , simply because destroying things is easier than building things and they’re mostly there to destroy .
I mean, it also forced him to resign from Congress and he’s also unlikely to survive the confirmation process, especially if the ethics report is released…
Project 2025 from the Heritage Foundation and the America First Transition Project from the America First Policy Institute. Same shit, different toilet, even more organized freaks.
Yeah, but honestly in a way I’m kind of tired of reading the name at this point. It’s big, it’s scary, it exists and isn’t going away and needs to fought.
Until put into practice it’s also just words.
A lot of religious texts that many people treat as dictates from a divine being are full of similarly exaggerated wish lists. In most sane parts of the world they’re not implemented with the force of law. We’ll soon find out how sane America is.

Either way, that’s a good outcome I suppose.
It’s a bit like the logic of why Trump may be better than De’Satan, he’s a reckless destructive arse, but at least he’s stupid too.
Problem is though now they have a pile of people behind that 2025 doc to make up for their own lack of knowledge…
