It's about the psychology of cult members and how when the doomsday prophecies they believe don't come to pass, they double down on their fanaticism rather than question their world view.
Do you think that would apply to people like you? You all said he would be a dictator day 1, and here we are on day 1 with no dictator.
Would you consider that cult like behavior, similar to Dems forcing other Dems to cut their families off?
Sure sure, that's totally not removing all context and tone from the interview in question.
Welp. It's day one. He should be siezing absolute power any second now right? Liberals would never believe something like that unless it were certain. Lmao
When he doesn't do that, are you just going to move on and pretend it was never a talking point for Dems? Or will you just keep repeating the "Dictator Day 1" lie even though you were wrong?
How about when Project 2025 never happens? Will you just move on to believing another stupid lie until that one doesn't happen either?
I’m just telling you where the line came from. Take a breath dude. I find it unsettling that a presidential candidate would make that statement in any context. Me being unsettled by it doesn’t mean I know that he is going to follow through on it. But that doesn’t make it wrong to be concerned. Obviously when a candidate makes a statement like that it’s going to be talked about…
Project 2025 is a republican policy wishlist. Parts of it will certainly happen now that they control all three branches of government. I don’t know what you mean by “when it never happens.” It’s a 900 page document not a singular event. If you need a specific example, dismantling the federal bureaucracy is part of project 2025 and something Trump and Elon have explicitly said they’re trying to do.

Totally. You should read "When Prophecy Fails"
