As Trump’s dementia and senility worsens, the various kooks, zealots, con-artists, and billionaires that make up his cabinet and inner circle of advisors are coming forward with ever crazier and more unconstitutional and illegal ways to defraud and intimidate the American people, ideas which Trump foolishly accepts as his own brilliant inventions.

When candidate Trump assured the nation that he didn’t know about Project 2025 and would not implement it, that was a bald-faced lie. The core agenda is to shred the Constitution, gerrymander and voter-suppress their way to permanent minority-rule government, and impose fascism under the guise of an entirely bogus and disingenuous white-nationalist Christianity. It’s an anti-minority, anti-women, anti-working families, and anti-youth agenda. Do the math: they have to fake it and have to intimidate the public into accepting the sabotage of our nation and economy, or they’ll be thrown out on their keisters.

Trump’s slim and shamefully gelded GOP majority in Congress is at grave risk of being thrown out by voters, and they know it. How else to explain going to war against the American people via armed military occupations of cities that did not and will not vote for this kind of treasonous mischief?

Lying is what Trump does best. Second-best is illegally maneuvering the election process. Will anybody be surprised if republican-leaning states are all gerrymandered and all democratic-leaning states have national guard in the streets by midterms (if he doesn't declare an emergency and cancel midterms?
