No, and hell no! Trump is not Maduro and this is not Venezuela. I think of one of the leaders of The Heritage Foundation saying "the transition will be bloodless if the left will allow it." Then there is the reason they have to do this. You cannot be pro life and pro abortion at the same time. This is "wokeism" and wokeism must be stopped. So, authoritarian rule will step in to stop 2 opinions. That's right, opinions. Yes, I can just see that working right now.

Another thing I have noted comes right out of the playbook for Project 2025. They claim they have a right to step in because you cannot be both pro life and pro abortion at the same time. This is "wokeism" they say and they have to step in to stop it. Wake up people! What is listed here is simply two statements of a different opinion. It's time to shut down Project 2025.

Once this is done the info or misinformation there would cause people to have a certain mindset. This is how the money is made. This is also exactly why the close similarity in names to the original non-profits.

Elon is an asshole and he still thinks things like this will pick him up more supporters. Accuses Harris of trying to sound black and doing Obama impressions. Since when? Other vids of this type claim Harris is not even black so she must have lied. BTW, Obama is half black. Facebook has similar things where I am cussed at profusely for saying We The People means all of us and not a select few. Distraction to extremes wants you to time travel backwards to prove a point.

I had to remind them that even a dictator makes his people vote for him. This is so he can claim his election was legitimate. We must also remember that We The People means all of us. Now they might vote. I think you are doing well and you should seek out others who believe as you do. I try but I'm beginning to think I hate people. OK, not everyone.

The coming takeover "will be bloodless if the left allows it to be." This tells you everything if you think on it. The big problem I find is that much of the left is falling in with this and saying things that help the Heritage Foundation and the far right. We cannot make remarks that seem to show we agree with them if we want to win. Time to wake up here. Otherwise you might be living in a modern version of the year 1900. When you take away the benefits that people have with no other ways of helping them it shows that you simply do not care about them. "We The People" has to mean all of us or it simply means "We Who Are in Power."
