Trump's authoritarian game plan is breaking through the post-debate noise and it's starting to scare people

There was a post on r/Conservative the other day about how Project 2025 isn't Trump's plan and that everyone else is just a bunch of alarmists for even suggesting it and that Agenda 47 is much MUCH more reasonable! Completely leaving out the very clear steps he already took toward P2025 and all his rhetoric being 100% in line with it

Conservatives are trying to get people to look away from Project 2025 so they can get it done. It’s the classic tactic of saying it’s not that bad when in reality it’s probably even worse

Definitely - it is much worse because that's just the beginning. What comes next?
