    More important than Trump, who are the shadowy figures orchestrating the dismantling? Miller for sure, the project 2025 folks, but who else?

      who else?

      The entirety of the Republican party plus the oligarchs that fund them. This has been coming for 30+ years. It’s only happening so fast because Trump sped things up, and Republicans didn’t want that because they were quietly fucking our democracy. Now more people are aware and trying to fight back, so in the long run it might slow their progress. If we survive Trump - because I’m not sure we will. Our democracy is all but dead.
