Friend, 

The House GOP has been hard at work for the past couple of weeks. In fact, this is the most legislation they’ve introduced in a while. If they were capable of thinking about anything but the orange convict, we might actually call this past week… productive? But come on, we all know that’s not possible. The very thought of passing something the American people could actually use probably makes members like MTG and Matt Gaetz break out in hives.

So, instead, they went with the usual pointless crap that is both ridiculous and could never pass the House anyways with their razor thin majority that seems to be shrinking by the day. We must say though, this set of bills is the most blatant form of orange-nosing we’ve seen yet. In addition to naming Dulles Airport after the convict, they want to name an area of water surrounding Florida the "Donald John Trump Exclusive Economic Zone of the United States." And the cherry on top? Not only does the House GOP want to bring back the $500 bill, but they want to put a portrait of Trump on the front of it. As far as we’re concerned, the only currency Trump should be using is cigarettes for prison yard poker games.

If you’re thinking all of this sounds ridiculous, that’s because it is. They’re doing this on purpose. The GOP knows that Project 2025 is so radical and so dangerous that introducing “cute” legislation is the only way to distract voters. This stuff will dominate cable TV for days because of how completely outlandish it is. But you know what won’t be mentioned? The Trump revenge tour. The one where he weaponizes institutions, bans abortion, and makes it so that he can stay in office forever. The one that the spineless GOP will support out of fear.

Don’t get us wrong, this level of lunacy can be unsettling. A convicted felon on a $500 bill moving through the United States Congress is gross and disrespectful. But just remember, it’s all part of a plan. Don’t take the bait. Don’t fall into their trap. Just keep your sights set on what really matters: winning in November. Because if we do that, Trump moves towards prison and the rest of America moves toward a better future. Help us keep voters in the right mindset >>
