Even I was optimistic. It looked like actual honest to God, outsiders with principled opposition to the swamp were being put in high places. I’ve never seen anything like it. I can’t imagine a better attempt at swamp draining. But they were almost immediately compromised. Epstein apparently killed himself. Our greatest health epidemic is antisemitism. We need votes so we compromised on government efficiency.
I went from cautiously optimistic to black pilled on the idea of change via political means. luckily, we still have Bitcoin. Still hopeful there.
