I think it is easiest to understand as part of Trump's attack on pockets of resistance to his authority. Anywhere there are smart people, there are people who are more likely than not to resist him. However, these people can still vote so Trump can't allow fair elections.

He is an angry man, the only emotion he is capable of and it is considered a secondary emotion. He has no ability for introspection and no insight into his mental illness. He is a very dangerous individual!

Keep saying "malignant narcissist" & "psychopath" on TV, @gtconway.bsky.social. The media refuses to even mention mental illness, which is at the heart of his behavior. Ppl need to learn. Instead, media throws up their hands, furrows their brow & wonders why oh why he does what he does!

I probably am counter to what your followers think, yet I fully agree with you. I don’t think Trump is capable of masterminding project 2025. He just wants to be loved so much that all of those leeches found a way to curry favor with him and are doing this in his name while he nods and smiles.

Oh I'm excited to see that Your Aunt Emma is back on SM! She was always one of my favorites on Twitter, but she was taking a break when I left. Someone please ask her to come to BlueSky! I learned so much from her posts.

Let’s not grieve what got us here. Let’s see our country’s faults and move forward toward our aspirations for the country and for our society.

We don’t want a dictator. We don’t want billionaires running our country. The country needs Trump‘s resignation.
