MAGAland voters who are now unhappy with Donald Trump's appointees running roughshod over the government with billionaire Elon Musk and his DOGE workers doing the most damage, got no sympathy from MSNBC's Michael Steele on Saturday morning.
From his perch on "The Weekend," the former head of the Republican National Committee noted that the plans found within the controversial far-right Project 2025 document are being enacted and those who thought before the election that it would never happen are now getting a rude awakening.
With co-host Symone Sanders Townsend pointing out that many Americans are just now finding out how dependent they are on federal employees and government policies that impact their daily lives, Steele stepped in.

"It hurts, it hurts a lot of people, it hurts a lot of families," he offered." And you know, I know from some folks in MAGAland that I've talked to who are now sitting there going, 'Well, I didn't think, I didn't think that it would go here. I didn't think it would be like this.'"
"And I was like, 'I don't know what to tell you, boo!'" he continued while laughing and then adding, "The man told you this! What you want to do? What do you think being a dictator for one day meant?"
"Let's go back, I don't know, five years, six years," he later added. "Donald Trump has always told you what he wants to do, and he tells you because he doesn't think you can stop him. And so it was very important to understand what leveling up Project 2025 was all about."
"Keep in mind they backtracked on Project 2025 because they got called out on it," he continued. "If no one had focused on a 900-page policy paper, trust me, right now you'd be going, everybody would be going, 'Where? What Project? 2025?' But you knew. You knew, you had it."
