I listened to many interviews with people convinced that Trump wouldn’t do the things he said he would do. They definitely won’t acknowledge the things he said he won’t do.
To be fair, I’m hoping Trump won’t do a lot of the things that he said he’d do. I have some hope of that–not because his intentions are good, but on the chance he gets distracted with something less harmful that strokes his ego.
LOL. They yesterday posted an announcement from him on X where he states verbatim all the first steps of Project2025 (prosecution of political opponents, complete replacement of governmental employees, dismantling of gov agencies). It’s 1984 big brother stuff. Trump isn’t in charge.
Trump is not the one to worry about now. His entire cabinet and the cavities within every institution who wrote and sponsored and want project 2025 are the ones to worry about. They will be carrying out their edict that they’ve successfully worked on for at least a decade now if not more. They have everything they could ever want to do it. And Trump will do random crazy things because he can now and that’s who he is but he doesn’t care about 2025, he just cares about celebrity, money and power. And every crazy thing he makes headlines for will be when the power grabs really happen and when the damage is done.
That’s what I think as well. If he remains a useful idiot he’s fine. The moment he tries to use power for only his purposes instead of whatever Russian/American theocratic reasons, he’s surrounded by people ready to 25th amendment him out of office with little push back.
I’m going to hope that people learned from Putin how to manage Trump and more folks will be vying for influence in a competitive manner. There’s at least a chance that being aclnowledged at the big boy table will leave him somewhat less receptive to folks specifically like Bannon.

“He lies about so many things! How the hell was I supposed to know he actually meant it this time?”

And then they’ll say something one day that rubs him the wrong way and he’ll fire them.
All Trump wants is to get and maintain power. I believe he’d like to pass it on to Ivanka or Eric after that. And maybe eventually Baron.
No, he’ll be dead. His purpose is almost fulfilled, just one more thing to get people motivated to accept the new order and war.
How long before Peter Thiel is in complete control? Horrifying.

Putin managed (still manages) Trump with kompromat. So unless they can get more of that…
