[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 37 points 2 years ago (1 child) Just a reminder, Reagan was the face for these terrible decisions. All of the actual thinking came from conservative think tanks, like The Heritage Foundation. Trump uses the same think tank to give him policy. Project 2025 is Heritage's baby. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* Yep, the cartoon villains that think these things up use cartoon logic. How do we trick people into voting for us? We hire professional actors and front men. Hit them with branding and sell them on the idea of, "you can be rich like us if only you vote for us." When they don't deliver, well it was the oppositions fault, you just need to vote for us harder! I could, today, write a new American classic called, "Check the voting records." It would be an upbeat jaunt but end with the protagonist under a streetlight sobbing as he stomps his hat into the ground. permalink fedilink source parent
