Dictator Don

What a load of crap.

Project 2025 is a manual for building a dictator.

What if..........

In the eyes of the Left (that you would call insane), their policies (to them) are the ones that make sense and YOURS really seem like the destructive, harmful, illegitimate ones?

There's some weird chit going on in the world and this is a valid question, if you can think larger than yourself.

What a load of crap. TRANSLATION:

• Dismantling Democracy - getting in democrat's corrupt way of stealing another election.

How about trying to convince state legislatures to change their electors to Trump in 2020? Not very democratic.

• Undermine Voting - interferring with democrat's plans to enlist thousands of illegals, out of state and dead people to vote.

There is no plan you paranoid lunatic.

• Dictator - telling any democrat to obey the law much like a parent disciplines an errant child.

The Trump DoJ tries hard to find ways to prosecute Dems for engaging in constitutionally protected behavior while ignoring the crimes and corruption of the elites who line Trump's pockets.

You know you are winning and on the right track when democrats jump up screaming FOUL!

If you weren't so delusional, you'd see how corrupt this administration is.

America is a REPUBLIC not a democracy. How many times have you recited the pledge and said "and to the democracy for which it stands?" Educate yourself noob.

Do you always miss the obvious?

"Donald Trump and the Republican Party are dismantling American democracy at a record-breaking pace, according to the latest edition of a long-running project tracking the health of democracies across the world.


“The scale and speed of autocratization under the Trump administration are unprecedented in modern times,” write the authors of the V-Dem Institute’s 2026 democracy report. “Under Trump’s presidency the level of democracy in the USA has fallen back to the same level as in 1965.” That was the year the Voting Rights Act was passed, and it was also the year most scholars view as the U.S. finally having become a true democracy.

Congressional Republicans have also ceded much of their lawmaking authority to the White House, allowing Donald Trump to attempt sweeping policy changes through executive orders (and leaving the courts to figure out whether any of it is legal). Trump has also directly undermined the workings of the judicial system, most notably by pardoning 1,500 people charged or convicted in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Trump has called for impeachment and filed misconduct complaints against judges who rule against him, refused to follow court orders, and channeled French dictator Napoleon Bonaparte in declaring, “He who saves his Country does not violate any Law.”

It won’t be easy. Lindberg notes that autocratic parties, like the Trumpist incarnation of the GOP, rarely reform themselves. But the 10 countries moving back toward democracy in 2025 have one major thing in common: “mass mobilization,” Lindberg says. “Lots of people out protesting in the streets is one of the most effective ways to stop autocratization. But those protests must be sustained, frequent, and long-standing.”

Trump is trying to undermine voting in several ways, he has a good chance of becoming our dictator.

V-Dem Institute?

What libtard fuckery is that?

There is no project 2025, doofus cult victim, that was an invention by your brain-trust in order to enlist you into their cause. You can't be stupid enough to really think Trump is a dictator, especially after Biden weaponized the DOJ against all his political enemies trying to destroy them.

This is probably the most incoherent, paranoid POS of post I've every read.

America is a Constitutional Republic ... not a Democracy. I might agree that Trump is screwing up the system created by the Founding Fathers and they would highly disagree with his actions but America is not a Democracy.

Weird, worked fine for me.

Obama did great damage and created division, GWB passed the Patriot Act and Bidens DOJ literally went after the man he would debate for the presidency just a couple of years later. What they did to Trump under Bidens term was horrific. If anyone has ever experienced the oppressive abuses of the state they would appreciate just how damaging it is. Trump had the popularity and wealth to withstand it (even though they tried to take his money too), very few do have those resources.

Biden not only avoided scrutiny while he hid from questions and was walking around aimlessly in public, but, he pardoned his own son for unnamed crimes going back a decade. That is going to be difficult to top though it is not impossible only improbable.

I do not know if Trumps decisions are hurting the U.S Republic, I would pray he would not do so but instead build guardrails to protect the U.S Republic. THAT is the best way to be remembered.

The SAVE Act was a big deal and an attempt to protect your elections. Avoiding the mail-in ballot etc. So I wonder just who it is who is blocking the protection of the democratic, of which voting is the central tenet.

Trump has worked hard for our Republic. It never has been a democracy.

"American democracy has evolved from a limited, 18th-century constitutional republic into a more inclusive system through centuries of political, social, and often violent struggles
. Originally designed to restrict direct voter power, the system gradually expanded voting rights, removing property requirements and race/gender exclusions, with many arguing full democracy only appeared post-1965."

"How old were you when the United States became a democracy?

Until fairly recently, that would have seemed like a peculiar question. The big story of the United States is that it’s always been a democracy — that democracy was the whole point of overthrowing British rule.

That’s the story that gets celebrated on July 4, with fireworks and parades and picnics and (my personal favorite) those sheet cakes tiled with berries in the shape of stars and stripes.

And that’s the story that I learned in school as a child. I’m guessing most other people who grew up in the United States probably learned it too. But these days, if you speak to many experts on American history or political science, you’ll often hear something very different.

“As a person who studies autocracy, there’s no way I would code the U.S. as a democracy prior to 1965, before the passing of the Voting Rights Act,” Anne Meng, a University of Virginia political scientist, told me in January.

“From our measures, the United States is not the oldest and best democracy in the world. It’s one of the relatively young democracies, like Portugal,” said Staffan Lindberg, the director of the V-Dem Institute, a global democracy tracker. “In our measures, if you look at the liberal democracy or even the electoral Democracy index for us, the United States doesn’t become a good democracy until after 1970.”

It is as childish and absurd to say we are solely a republic as it is to say we are fully democratic.

We are a hybrid.

So if its printed in Wikipedia, it must be fact? ITMT Ace, if you actually read your own article, you would realize that everything listed in it is merely just the government applying the law to get back to a sensible, constitutional republic as envisioned by our Founders to undo the damage done by radical extremist progressives in recent years of subversive activity designed to attack the USA from within--- China's stated objective based on ancient strtategies of Sun Tzu.

We don't need a "project" for that, we just need to apply the law and common sense values again.
