Trump's war on the USA has started to cause problems in construction and agriculture because the people who do a lot of labor for us are deported, in detention or in hiding.
Surely Trump supporters will volunteer for farm work and construction jobs. It's the patriotic thing to do, right?

Male voice on phone identified himself as an officer of Customs and Border Protection. Asking about a suspicious package allegedly sent by me to El Paso, TX. Seemed like a scammer. Hard to understand his voice. I tried to call CPB. More in comments. ...

Let me understand the chronology.
The US VP flies to Rome in hopes of a photo op with the pope, whose health is shaky at best. The Vatican sets up a meeting with a high-ranking cardinal, but that doesn't satisfy the US VP. He insists on a photo op with the pope.

First steps of Project 2027.
1) Recover control of Congress in 2026 by electing people who are committed to returning Democracy to USA.
2) Use impeachment and/or the 25th Amendment to recover control of the Executive Branch.
Step 2 should be apparent to voters leading up to Step 1.

It is 536 days until the 2026 Midterm Elections. That is the next chance we have to elect people to Congress who will help restore our democracy by impeaching Trump, Vance and a few other people. We must start that process now!

2/ A year or so later there was a new president, John Kennedy. I wrote to him also. I got a nice letter back with JFK's signature on it. I don't think he sent a booklet, though.
For a year or two, those letters were probably my most prized possessions.

1/ When I was about 8 years old, I wrote a letter to President Dwight Eisenhower. I think I asked a few questions that would have been easily answered at my local library. I got back a nice letter signed by the president('s autopen). I also got a booklet about the history of the Republican Party.
