Some of the many “mistakes” the Trump administration has made in its frenzied push to implement the MAGA agenda (aka Project 2025) are simple descriptors that they communicate to the public. For instance, DOGE is not the Department of Government Efficiency. It’s the Department of Government Evisceration. Finding “fraud, waste and abuse” is, in reality, “eliminating checks and balances and authoritarian overreach.” And “Make American Great Again” means “Make Americans Poorer, Dumber and Sicker.”

We need to recapture the lost wealth that previous presidents gave away and lost to these trading parties.
