Trump openly stated he would do what he’s doing now. His campaign published project 2025. It wasn’t a conspiracy. They did it out in the open while crowing about doing it. There’s really no excuse for not listening when he told you his plans.

You either made a mistake because you were purposely uninformed or you agreed with what he wanted to do until it started affecting you. Either way you were wrong and need to accept and admit that before serious work can be done. Otherwise it’ll just happen again when the next demagogue rears their ugly head.
