America is teetering on the edge of fascism

Posted

America is in danger of becoming a Fascist nation. If it can happen in Italy, Germany, and  Spain within my lifetime it can happen here. Donald Trump, supported by his army of the wealthy who desire power, support a style of governance where the leader cannot fail, but only be the victim of fools. A government that demands loyalty to power from everyone and finally, the promise to use their power to  eliminate the grievances of common people which when they get power eliminates the grievances of those in power only.  
I just heard of Project 2025, a right-wing Republican plan by the Heritage Foundation for  the President his first day in office. I did not read the 900 pages, but a summary was enough to prove to me that this group, supported by Donald Trump and his friends, desires Fascism in America. Project 2025 has been at work for a few years to build a plan for immediate action should Donald Trump be elected President. In his first term as president, Trump implemented two-thirds of his decisions based on the Heritage Foundation’s policy, personnel, and training  recommendations. Two of his former executive staff are authors of Project 2025. 
Here is what Trump will do the moment he has presidential power January 2025: The Conservative Promise calls for draconian rollbacks of sexual health and reproductive rights,  LGBTQ+ equality, racial equity, removal of the department of education, rollback of climate and  environmental protections, all the while preferencing an exclusionary interpretation of Christianity  and stripping rights from multiple communities. 
On Trump’s first day in office, we can count on these and a host of what is for democracy, draconian measures to be implemented. Am I ready to call this Fascism? Yes, I am. A vote for Donald Trump as President will be a vote for a Fascist and the army of Fascists behind him. The storm is gathering focusing on increasing the power of the president and disenfranchising the lower and middle classes. Check Project 2025 on the internet.
