Many of Trump’s proposals for his second term are surprisingly extreme, draconian, and weird, even for him. Here’s a running list of his most unhinged plans.

Freedom to do what, murder LGBTQ+, lefties, people of color, and so forth? Because that’s what I have to assume he means by “Freedom.”
Given the libertarian influences, I’d assume they’re supposed to be hyper-privatized free trade zones or special economic zones. That means low or no taxes, hardly any regulations, unhinged capitalism for everything.
It’s the same bullshit libertarians have been praising for decades now and that’s been tried and failed again and again. Remember that crypto cruise ship?
Freedom to have every facet of your existence regulated to a homogenized set of conservative social values while also being totally free of any corporate oversight at all.
Not sure who wants to actually live there. Conservatives like two places: cities that exist because educated, largely liberal, people create jobs she money, or the country where they can leach off the cities to fund their infrastructure without any of the social costs that come with it.
Probably freedom to just sit there empty. He wants to build them from scratch.
This sounds oddly familiar to other stories we’ve heard before.
