Just a quick note here in advance of Trump and Musk crashing the economy in 2025: Trump voters are going to blame Democrats for that too.
Read up on fascism and cults and stop assuming we have a rational electorate that’s actually looking at economic indicators. It simply isn’t.

If anyone is looking ahead to 2025 and thinking that when Donald Trump breaks things, kills people, ends alliances and treaties, and endangers all of us he’ll be blamed for it, think again. You can’t *imagine* the degree of pain he’ll need to cause people before they turn on him.
Trump is a proxy for issues in people and culture Democrats can’t resolve via politics. He is a fever that will either kill this country dead or bring it so close to death—and I mean spectacularly, painfully close to death—that the fever breaks. Democrats better learn that quick.
They won. They won everything. They should be blindingly happy. Out celebrating. Even dancing.
But what are they doing? They’re on social media—trolling. Can you understand how fully dissolved a spirit has to be for that to be your response to getting everything you ever wanted?

Democrats can’t fill holes in hearts.
Democrats can’t make American culture a culture of service rather than grievance—and to be *very* clear, the culture of grievance on the right is *infinitely* more whiny and snowflaked than anything on the left.
That’s *not* the solve here.

Pain is the solve.
And to be perfectly clear, *not* pain brought on by Democrats. I would never want that as a human being or a voter.
No—Donald Trump will have to cause *such unimaginable pain* to the people he claimed to care for that it’s *impossible* to blame the Democrats.

But he’ll try.
The fascist playbook is that when *you* cause pain to poor/working-class whites and the middle class, you first blame foreigners.
Then racial and ethnic minorities. And Jews. Then dissidents. Then women.
MAGA will run through *all* of us before it gets to *him*.
