56. Disagree!

They (MAGATs) actually ultimately succeeded in their original objective by eventually taking control of the federal government, dismantling agencies, and eliminating any independent oversight. January 6, 2021 proved that actual violence by their fanatical supporters, or even the future prospect of such, is an effective means to instill fear in the opposition and intimidate those contemplating any accountability for criminal behavior. With the Project 2025 blueprint, they had four years to refine and develop the necessary infrastructure to aggressively implement the destruction of our democratic republic once Drumpf resumed power. The moral, ethical, cultural, societal, and institutional damage that has already occurred is generational and will take a herculean effort to restore this nation.
