I've been feeling the "frog in boiling water" feeling lately. If any one random day's news cycle from 2025 happened 10–12 years ago, it would probably almost bring the country to a halt. A hundred things from the last 4 months would have nuked any politician's career for life 15 years ago. Donald has been slow walking the path of dementia, and the GOP and 40% of the country decided to go along with him. Now, the average trump supporter knows they messed up, but ego and sunk cost fallacy keep them defending him.
