Too late now, the voters asked for this.

  Sure, by 3M votes. Fact is that no, most of the country did not ask for this. In fact, Trump explicitly lied about project 2025 during the campaign. So many may have been swayed to vote Trump, with the understanding that project 2025 was not on the table. Those people did not ask for this.

    Oh, but they did. Trump has been spewing out his plans for 10 years. His inability to understand complex situations, lack of world knowledge, ignorance of history. The voters knew exactly what they were voting for.

      Just like economics has been found to have far from rational actors, it's clear that there are millions of "low information voters". Many of them likely voted for him because he's that actor on tv who entertains them. But yes, plenty of his voters heard what he had to say and liked it. Tangent: in the United States, more people believe in angels than in evolution (69% vs 60%).

    Inaction by the other majority of non-voters is accepting that this route wasn't any less desirable than Harris's plan. So yes, most of the country at best didn't care.
