This is what really frightens me & I only became aware of just how bad it is, a few weeks before the election when I had an exchange with a maga relative, who I've always been fond of, & realized how completely & totally misinformed & uninformed he is. It was stunning! I knew it was bad but this was off the charts bad! No clue about Project 2025, but the Biden economy was one of the worst ever, people are pouring in over the southern border, & women aren't safe anywhere because of transwomen. Family members I've always admired & respected, & are college educated, are maga. It's hard to reconcile.
