I want to make sure now that we know who the real players are, the people who will actually deliver on the president’s message, the people who don’t think that they know better than the duly elected president of the United States.

Yeah. We’re fucked, no matter who he picks. But there is at least a glimmer of hope that this means that we’ll just get ordinary yes men and not “Project 2025” yes men. There is a glaring flaw in Project 2025, as far as Donald Trump is concerned: it wasn’t his idea to begin with. And if he goes too fast with it too quickly, people might think that the Heritage Foundation is pulling his strings. And he has to be the boss, he can’t abide even the appearance that he is taking orders from anyone else.
