GOP hypocrisy: “bring down the temperature” when it comes to Dems calling out Trump. Meanwhile, he’s cranking up the heat, falsely painting Democrats as violent radicals with zero evidence in order to justify sending troops into LA, Chicago, DC, and Portland. It’s all part of the Project 2025 plan.
