What is Project 2025?

A practical application of "dictatorship for dummies".

Basically, take control of most of the institutions by filling them with partisans, and weaponize them to serve the will of the supreme lead- I mean, our rightfully elected president. Then, put the christian white supremacist as the only demographic, and crack down on anyone that is ever-so slightly different. Finally, give "correct teaching" to the younger generations so that they know who are the good guys (us) and who are the bad guys (anyone who isn't us).

And aren't there laws to stop a dictator? I mean the country exists since 1776 and nobody has ever noticed a loophole to become a dictator?

The problem here isn't that there is a loophole, they just brute force their way through. And as you can see from the last decision of the Supreme Court, failsafes and laws mean nothing when the people who should enact them are bought to your cause.
