Hope? They're working on it. And they're not being particularly secretive about it.

You mean apart from ridiculously obvious gerrymandering, voter suppression, crippling the Federal Election Commission, increasing state control of the media, the end of habeas corpus, state kidnapping of citizens, the entirety of the Project 2025 document, the destruction of constitutional norms, the clauses to neuter judicial oversight in the Big Beautiful Bill, and a president planning to run for (at least) a third term?

You know the Dems are just as bad about the gerrymandering, right? Also the media control: see the Twitter files.

Sure thing! If you go to Trump's official store (ridiculous statement on its own for a sitting president), you'll find a whole lot of "Trump 2028" merch.

I personally can't think of many ways to be more blatant than that.

It's a joke to upset progs and commies. Looks like it is working as intended.
