"My initial reaction to this, because our president is a lot of talk, was like 'I'll believe it when I see it' … and today I saw it on my new passport," Schafer said."
The disconnect between what American's thought Trump would do and what he and his team repeatedly and unambiguously said he was going to do is genuinely dismaying.
I'm not sure this is quite at a face-eating leopard level of denial of the obvious, but its approaching it.
For me it was more a belief of what they'd be able to do, not try to do. I had faith in the system to stop certain things but the lack of pushback from anyone else in power despite everything going on right now is proving that believe to be very misguided and naive
I hope everyone feels safer now, and finds their eggs more affordable. Good old small government and freedom.
I know, right! All the illegal tranny immigrants sneaking into women's restrooms and stealing our American eggs and replacing them with fentanyl and liberal lies and then claiming it's part of their DEI job description, which, btw, was funded by a fraudulent USAid grant for a left-handed dyslexic lesbian Canadian Eskimo interpretive dance performance art piece featuring the stomping on of unborn babies ripped from their mother's womb immediately after birth!!! Why do they hate us for our freedom?!?!
Maybe freedom for billionaires.
