Summary
Following Donald Trump’s election victory, Republicans are now openly embracing Project 2025, a policy agenda from The Heritage Foundation that outlines sweeping conservative reforms.
Despite Trump’s attempts to distance himself from the project during his campaign due to its extreme proposals—including expanded executive powers, a national abortion ban, stricter contraception limits, harsh immigration policies, and the elimination of agencies like the Department of Education—his allies quickly began celebrating its implementation.
Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and commentator Matt Walsh publicly affirmed the agenda, signaling the GOP’s commitment to enacting these controversial policies in Trump’s second term.
Either they run into the filibuster in the senate and it stops most of this, or we finally do away with the filibuster and when the democrats come in to clean up after 2/4 years of disaster, we don’t have the filibuster stopping all the good ideas the democrats are suppose to support.
Assuming the ditch the filibuster and implement 2025, there will be no more elections.
None of it will matter because there won’t ever be another free and fair election again.
There will be no “democrats come in”. I’ll be surprised if there is ever another election.
The only thing that could change this is the people making heads roll.
But we won’t.
There will still be elections – even Russia still holds elections. They just won’t be free or fair.
There will definitely be another election. But it will be like the elections in Hungary and Russia. Meaningless window dressing.
it’s funny, you think there’s enough time.
clocks done, boy. the bell has rung, the match called, and the crowd is gone.
pack your bags and find somewhere else to hang up your hat.
we lost, so much.
assuming they dont get rid of the filibuster, and then put it back on their way out if they manage to lose power again
That’s some 5d chess right there
Rules (filibuster) for thee but not for me is the guiding principle of the right wing.
Dictators don’t typically take too kindly to filibusters.
