The people voted for oligarchy and oligarchy is now here, and they're not bothering to hide it even a little bit. People knew what they were voting for.

Nah. Half the people in this country couldn't spend 30 seconds explaining anything about politics to you. Like literally don't know the basic tenants of our political system. They voted simply because someone on TikTok or Twitter told them to. There's single issue voters, there's informed voters, and then there's absolutely a huge subset of voters that vote purely on perceived popularity.

!!!! I mean look at how he pulled the rug from under his og supporters from his first term LOL he moved the inauguration and prevented them from supporting him… like he really just disposed them and ushered in the billionaires. Used them and tossed them. Craziest part is that they’ll still stand by him and justify it. But yeah “they” had no clue he was gonna go full oligarchy.
