Interesting. I am always suspicious of "great man" explanations of history and the same applies to current events - not that individual choices do not matter, but they are constrained and influenced by bigger social forces.

Something similar happened in the UK, as the major parties moved towards a consensus as they both went after critical centrist voters (because the left and right voters were not going anywhere else - at the time anyway).

It is result of long term conservative project. And somehow you managed to blame non-conservatives for it.

Trump is a cause of destruction. He is literally making those decisions. He is to blame. Trump and project 2025 are what republicans and conservatives were trying to achieve for years and years. Again, it hapened intentionally.

But noooooo, must blame Obama. Anyone except directly responsable organizations and people.

There are always insane people waiting with a plan, its the job of government, and politicians to keep them at bay. [1,2]

People pushing for project 2025 are conservative politicians and republicans. They were in government the whole time. And they were in government because conservatives and republicans want that plan.

They are not some kind of insane people outside of politics and government. They are literally the republican party.

I get that the Project 2025 is an evil plot, but that's missing the existing duopoly that allows the Donor class, and their alliances, both foreign and domestic, to override the will of the people.

Even if every single Republican got voted out, the rot is still there, just wearing the other hat.
