The architects of Project 2025 want to turn the US into a nightmare reality and some of them want to do so at warp speed. But even for them - Trump’s actions are out of control. If you want to commit horrible acts - a simple way is to proceed slowly. You boil the frog. People get fucked before they realize it. Destroying stuff like healthcare programs as fast as possible makes no sense to me. And not only do people know they’re getting fucked - they can go insane with rage and hate at the people who fucked them.
Trump is like just like Dubya. He doesn’t want to plan or think but he sure as fuck wants to be the decider. I don’t think there’s any grand plan by Trump. I think Elon finagled his way into a room with Trump at just the right time. And Elon whispered in his ear something simple like “Freeze OMB money immediately and we - I mean you can avoid congress and control trillions.” Or maybe some Project 2025 absolute nutjob did the whispering. In any case - on total impulse with no thinking whatsoever Trump did what the last person in the room told him he could do to be strong and powerful.
