    It could be argued, I guess?

    But to impose arbitrary (and contrary to democracy itself) rules overnight and expect everyone to follow suit instead of negotiating a solution? No fucking way.

    Maybe I should have put it differently:

    “If you don’t run your business by our fascist rules right now you can’t do business with us!”

      Trump legitimately believes his purpose is to put forth the rules that make his voters happy… so in that way, negotiation is more of a sign of weakness and would tank his numbers.

        Nah, he doesn’t care about the voters this time.

        This is all him and the Project 2025 guys.
