The “GOP” bakes that into their actions. Especially this go around.

Hit hard out of the gate, and in a year or two, nobody will remember anything about what is going on now. And Trump will just tout a bunch of made up wins. Likely the complete opposite of reality. And many, many Americans will just eat it up like the slop they so richly deserved.

One would think the mishandling of covid(somehow that is just a small example) never happened. That Jan 6 was not really a violent attempt to overturn a free and fair election…..

The list is too long to detail here and it will just make me angrier.
They voted for him anyhow. With zeal.
