Here's how history will describe our present day:
Lots of Americans categorizing themselves as 'conservative' decided to hate liberals and the Democratic party so much, that they were totally fine with ditching liberal democracy.

This society needs to stop rewarding confident incompetent assholery so much. Actually there needs to be a word for that.
Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*
The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.

Fact is, Epstein is the *only* issue impervious to Trump/GOP messaging tactics.
That's why Trump & MAGA keep freaking out—they literally don't know what to do when lying, misdirection, and demagoguery don't work. So they flail around, making it worse.
Dropping it would be political malpractice.
