Sounds like you're hoping for an apocalypse. Trump distanced himself from Project 2025 because he knew it wouldn't be popular with his voters. We'll see how much of it is actually supported by the majority of Republicans.

I don't think the upper class and upper-middle class will suffer that much, besides the obvious loss of liberty. And they aren't taking away liberties that are popular among Republicans. Climate change isn't going to kill us all, but it will make this world even more dystopic.

There will be a midterm election in 2 years, and the Republicans will have far less power of they don't control the house and senate. We can still control the damage. Like I said, this is like cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.

I applaud your rosy outlook and sincerely hope you're right. But my cynicism has yet to lead me wrong.
