Trump’s goal: remove democracy

Donald Trump is following Project 2025 to remove our democracy.

He removed 17 inspectors general; people who have oversight on the billions Trump will spend; canceled funding on all government programs until called on it, then reinstated it; is trying to remove all government employees; his illegal immigrant deportation is a fiasco.

Trump's goals are the same as his first term. Take total control; remove democracy. The difference now, no one to control him.

Types of people he wants in his cabinet:

Robert Kennedy, Jr., who says Americans don't like Medicaid; premiums and deductibles are too high, neither one even exist; states that Wi-Fi causes brain leakage; encourages people to avoid vaccines yet his children are vaccinated; he says HIV does not cause AIDS.

Tulsi Gabbard says Volodymyr Zelenskiy is a corrupt autocrat and has expressed sympathy for Putin.

Kash Patel said he was the lead the Benghazi inquiry, he was not; said he gave the order to kill the ISIS leader in 2019, wrong; and supports QAnon theorists.

These people are incompetent and scary. Would you let them run your family or business? I hoped what Democrats warned us about would not happen. But it is happening. Turn off Fox News or other ultraright outlets. Get the truth so your kids and grandkids can know the true America.
