Two things to bear in mind here:

1) As much as JD Vance and his puppetmaster wishes they were the president, they are not. The tech fascism isn't happening, just regular kind. What you're seeing here with the "deregulation" is just a big fat scoop of plain corruption. Give Herr Führer a nice golden trinket and he deregulates your industry or tariffs your competitors.

2) While they are deregulating heavily, there's absolutely zero sense of "Small Government" going on. You need only look at the oppression of groups like LGBT people. There's no bigger government than controlling which toilets people use or inspecting the genitals of children if they want to participate in sports.

And outside of LGBT rights, just look at the whole situation around Israel. Literal secret police going around arresting people for non-violent protest and simple thoughtcrime.

It’s such a bummer. These oppressed people have been through enough already. Really felt like we were making progress and then these aholes just dumped it down the drain.

JD will win in 2028 even if trump survives that long, as long as their election interference goes unchecked.

This is my concern too. Even the midterms. But hopefully enough people will be fired up and watching this time.
