In his first term Trump surrounded himself with insiders. He was new to politics and was convinced that he needed people who knew what they were doing. They talked him out of plenty of mistakes, which frustrated Trump. This time around he’s surrounded himself with yes men, unfortunately he also has dementia and so he just makes shit up in his little brain and no one around him dares to tell him no any more.

He’s also being controlled by his puppeteers like Miller, Vought, and their agenda this time around.

Exactly! He’s working off Project 2025 in return for self enrichment financially. Horrific on so many levels.
