This time, Trump’s team not only has the experience of a four-year term behind them, they also have a blueprint for the future. It's called Project 2025 and his officials have already begun implementing it. An analysis by TIME found that nearly two-thirds of the executive actions Trump has issued so far mirror or partially mirror proposals from the 900- page document, ranging from sweeping deregulation measures to aggressive immigration reform. It's not helpful to say “we’ve been here before” because this time the Trump regime has a plan, and they’re not afraid to use it. The Most Important Difference The most importance difference between the last Trump administration and this political climate as well as the past overall, is that we are now facing the rollback of progress that previous generations never enjoyed. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Voting Rights Act of 1965 markedly expanded political participation and legal protection of historically marginalized groups including women, Black people, and people of various religions. In the current context, however, we've seen the rollback of those rights.

Very good points.
And, it's important to remember that while the houses that survived the fire did so because their architects & builders had taken care to prepare them, they also needed luck,. This important for us to remember. Take everything so seriously, and remind yourself history is contingent on what you do, and what I do. Nothing in the social and political world is self-executing. You may have grown up in a world that felt that way, so you slacked off. No more!
