How naive to complain about this!

Those are the aims, the features of the new administration.

Some people are slow learners, it seems.

Give it a year or so, and Trump voters will realize they have been suckered, patsied, led astray, flimflammed and voted against their own best interests.

Stuck with it, all of us. 4 years or - hopefully - less.
President Vance might be more amenable to act like a normal human being, or at least be led in the right direction.
