Donald Trump lashed out on Wednesday against a New York Times reporter, calling her “ugly inside and out” in his latest personal insult against female members of the media after last week calling another “piggy”.

In a Truth Social post, Trump criticized the newspaper for an article suggesting he was running low on energy in his 80th year, insisting he had “never worked so hard in my life”.

When you're an orange, demented, chronically ill fat fuck, I bet even wiping your ass might feel like the hardest work you've done in your life.

The folks behind Project 2025 realized that in order to be done most effectively, lots of laws would need to be broken, and the President would need to appropriate powers that aren't really his. They created a perfect scenario to circumvent this:

a President who doesn't give a shit about laws
a Supreme Court who says the President can break all the laws he wants to, and impeachment is the only remedy
a Congress who will not impeach the President for breaking the law, as long as he is doing it for reasons they approve of.

So, the net effect is that he was put there, on purpose, to remake the Federal Government to be so small it can drown in the bathtub, in spite of laws to rhe contrary. He has the government by the pussy, abd Republicans let him do it.

Even if Gavin wins in 2028, he will inherit an executive branch that is eviscerated and has no ability yo do anything. Moderates will tag him as "ineffective" and run to the next Republican in 2032. Then all bets are off....
