A disintegrating Trump puts Vance a heartbeat away from the presidency, but there’s more than Vance to fear. Although Trump has publicly disavowed the architects of Project 2025, any distance between him and the scheme is a mirage. We know, for example, that at least 140 people who once worked for his administration have contributed to the plan, which was orchestrated primarily by the Heritage Foundation. Vance even wrote the forward to a book written by Kevin Roberts, the president of Heritage. Trump has to fill a second administration somehow – and for years, his allies in Washington, D.C., have been strategizing for just such an occasion. “Eighty percent of my time is working on the plans of what’s necessary to take control of these bureaucracies,” said Russell Vought to a pair of undercover British journalists this summer. Vought, a former Trump official, is widely considered to be a candidate for Trump’s prospective chief of staff. He added that “we are working doggedly on that, whether it’s destroying their agencies’ notion of independence … whether that is thinking through how the deportation would work.”

    This isn’t true

    You can’t deteriorate something that was already deteriorated to begin with. This the bottom of the barrel … you can’t lower than this.

          I’m mean, president Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho wanted to help the population, solve the crop issue and did listen to smarter people. He was a bit impatient but accepted the reality if he saw it and could change his opinion. I’d vote for him over trump every time.

      When has trump ever not been able to go lower? If he can’t do it in quality he’ll do it in quantity.
