It is way too easy to blame the voters. Trump distanced himself clearly from Project 2025. Their fault, if trust is a fault, was to take that liar at his word.
So why would anyone who is taking their vote seriously even consider voting for someone who has written books that contain his strategy of lying with regularity and conviction in order to get what he wants? That he lies was well known, bragged about even, as the best way to do business. One of the MANY disqualifying characteristics that should have kept all from even considering him, regardless of the lack of stellar quality of the other candidate. It is pure ignorance to expect that a liar and a felon can be believed.
Our kids are 27 and 30, so clearly voters. They went to very good public schools, in a state known for good schools. The entire time they were in school I was astonished at the lack of critical thinking being taught, and took strong efforts to supplement that lack of education. The voters have been increasingly compromised by the decline of the quality of education. It doesn't pay our politicians to have critical thinkers as voters, and what I have been seeing will not reverse the decline. I hold both parties guilty for that. If a voter is dependent on you, they will be more likely to vote for you.
Frankly, I think it is too easy to blame Trump. Weasels will be weasels. It is 100% the fault of the people who put him into office.
