how past 25+ years of politics feels:
product: we're adding a new puppy grinder mode to our blender
greybeard: you're gonna chop up puppies?? fuck you
product: er, we don't actually have it enabled nor will ever enable it.
graybeard: you're lying bitch
consumers: he said its fine. quit whining. you're such a buzzkill dude
*later*
product: now that we have market supremacy, we're activating the puppy grinder, we're chopping up puppies.
consumers: oh my god, why didn't anyone tell us this?

Itβs going to be an interesting test case to see if an entire administration can govern for four years based entirely on vibes and (literal) shitposting. Honestly nothing else. Nothing to improve the economy, quality of life or national safety. Entirely focused on dicking around on twitter.
