I am especially concerned about the role Elon musk will have. He’s the equivalent to darth Vader.
Yes! He’s like Goebbels at this point. It seems like Musk is quite unhinged.
That being said, I’m sure they will have a falling out some time in the future.
He is the next Bannon, even at the end Bannon turned on him. Rather find out sooner than later.

My mistake: RFK, Jr. is being considered for head of the FDA not Secretary of HHS as it is believed getting him confirmed would be too difficult but having him in that position isn't fantastic either.
Project 2025 is basically a blueprint for Trump's administation that he has disawoved but some principles have been a part of his Agenda47, including downsizing or eliminating the Department of Education.
While he wants to put education in control of the states, he wants to enact legislation to restrict content discussed or taught in school, bring prayer to public schools and dismantle diversity initiatives.

It's a bad time to be a woman, at least one of childbearing age, in America. And that's sad.
Other things that are concerning me about 4 years of a Trump Presidency:
-Project 2025 (and yes, he knows what that is.)
- Book banning and its effect on libraries and librarians
-Dismantling the Department of Education
-RFK, Jr. in the Department of Health (Come on, really)
-Mass deporatation and breaking up families.
-Withdrawing support for Ukraine
The only proposal I like is strengthing our borders. I'm not sure a wall is going to help as we've seen that it can be breached but something needs to make our nation more secure.
Are these all things he has mentioned he will do?
So basically nothing set in stone that he said he truly wants to do. Just things people have heard through the grapevine and pushed along.
This is the problem I think with both Trump and Kamala. People listen to things on social media, particularly TT and run with it.
Yes, these are all things he said he will do. https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-wins-second-term-policies-de3dcf0f173b42602b258042fd7aaafb
If you don’t like the AP all you have to do is google “what will trump do” and you’ll find a dozen articles, from all political persuasions saying the same thing. I don’t know how anyone, on either side, could have trouble finding this information. It’s literally everywhere.
And now, here we are. Project 2025 playbook being followed. RFK in HHS. Dismantling the Dep't of Education. Mass deportation and human rights violations while doing so. Withdrawing all support for Ukraine is coming. What we didn't foresee was Elon Musk running the country into the ground.

A lot of these "fears" are pushed by TT and other online sites and will never come true.
They are all coming true because they are all things he said.

And people still voted him back into the White House.
Now all the Trump voters and supporters are crying about losing their jobs, their benefits, their federal contracts....
How's the price of groceries again? Weren't they supposed to come down on day 1?

Especially when changing how workers access unemployment benefits is one of Project 2025's agendas.

No worse than the previous administration, at least they are doing something! I dont agree with everything that he is doing but I do understand the meaning behind it. And how biased the media is in one direction or another.

Kamala Harris did nothing and Biden's mental capacity was worse than they made us believe. You can't say that this administration is an embarrassment and that one wasn't! Like I said, I don't agree with everything that he is doing but, they are doing things. Typical democrat, in denial that things weren't bad before.

Re: Shocked by Presidential Outcome
They may not have been great before but they are 100% worse now and more pain is to come, according to Trump and Musk.
With the exception of border security, nothing they are doing is for the good of anyone but their billionaire buddies.
Unless you are an extremely wealthy white male or married to one, you are screwed.
Project 2025 baby!

Absolutely 100% worse, and I don't know anyone could think otherwise? 30k Federal employees fired, huge tariffs coming, slashing the health and human services budget (which largely funds Medicaid and it's programs, and this is DETRIMENTAL to the disabled population that needs these programs the most). The list goes on. All of these mass firings, tariff talks etc. have dropped consumer spending, which trickles down to businesses who then have to close. The economy is in the TANK even MORE now, and that's not really debatable, no matter which side you are on.
He ran on a promise of "cheaper groceries" and yet....here we are

Shocked by Presidential Outcome
I have no idea how people are not concerned. It’s currently like the Wild West. Ontatrio is instituting a 25% increase in energy prices to NY. That’s an average increase of $100 a month. Why is Trump literally destroying the economy?!?! It is literally imploding - look at the stock market. Thank god we’re not close to retirement.

Dumpster fire continues with severe cuts to the DOE. The Sec of Ed doesn’t even know what IDEA stands for - helps the ones with disabilities and needs”. Awesome.
