It means he doesn't have the popular mandate they keep claiming they do.
But yes. Half of adults are functionally illiterate. 5th-6th grade reading levels. They can physically read the words, but will only grasp the most basic surface level meaning. Republicans' started attacking education decades ago. This is what they wrought.

Surely there will be waves of protestors being kicked out on the streets with their families, left to starve in ditches with nothing they can do.

There are already millions caught in the crosshairs. Its not a choice between doing nothing and saving lives, and doing something and losing them. We are losing them both ways but by doing nothing people evade social responsibility.

I used to say "You know Monopoly is an old game, because it has rich people in prison". The moment we stopped to hold them accountable, everything went really bad.

The decades of inaction should be largely heaped at the feet of Baby Boomers, who have sucked up and hollowed out the vast majority of American prosperity.
Everyone else has been carried along in the wake of their outsized cohort's rampage.

That looks like a PieFed bug - the leading # should normally not be parsed into a headline in Markdown unless it is followed by a space. I'll give @[email protected] a heads up!
That said, there's every reason to scream at this point. I wish all Americans seeking to flee the country the best of luck.

The flag isn’t symmetrical, which is where the orginial flying the flag upside down comes from. It’s subtle enough pirates wont notice but an experienced British naval officer will and come rescue you.

a) "Not my fault" should be tattooed on the forehead of every American at birth. In this they're current president represents them perfectly.
b) Lazy, true. I didn't put in foot notes or provide links. However, a clearer example of laziness would be responding to an internet post to complain about how offended I feel instead of starting up a browser and find out what who locally is already doing something, and what still needs doing.
c) If my little post offended you then you are not going to believe what the leader of your country has been saying about my country! He is threatening our soverignty even! So you will excuse me if my response to your offense is this: ..|..Sorry.

Given that he campaigned claiming he wouldn't be enacting Project 2025 (even though it was obvious he would be), I don't think you can claim people not voting are automatically okay with him breaking that very explicit promise.
No. Americans do not want this. Americans especially didn't want it done by some nutjob private citizen who has zero authority to do what he's doing, and no oversight.
