    But the argument isn’t that the writers weren’t serious, the argument is that they won’t be able to do it because Trump isn’t on board with it.

    People thinking so are still wrong of course, but nobody is claiming it was a “joke” like the image implies.

      It’s 920 pages. Trump can barely read and gets bored after one page of security briefings. He will just rubberstamp everything as long as he gets told that people will love him for it / that he gets a lot of money out of it personally. He’s incredibly lazy and also clearly in mental decline. Vance will be the actual guy doing the work, and he in turn will get his orders from Thiel, Musk and Putin (and other billionaires that buy themselves into the inner circle).
