I expected to be offended and/or astonished by a ridiculously transparent bit of sanewashing here, but you know... I think I actually might agree.
It does seem to be a valid point - Gaetz is a grotesquely destructive demagogue and Trump sycophant, but he's also a buffoon, and that's undoubtedly better than a grotesquely destructive demagogue and Trump sycophant who's also a smart and devious and highly skilled politician.
Huh...
It's a bit like the logic of why Trump may be better than De'Satan, he's a reckless destructive arse, but at least he's stupid too.
Problem is though now they have a pile of people behind that 2025 doc to make up for their own lack of knowledge...
Project 2025 from the Heritage Foundation and the America First Transition Project from the America First Policy Institute. Same shit, different toilet, even more organized freaks.
