Why Trump's first moves in office have been so scary. He is launching a full-scale war against modern liberalism.

“President Donald Trump and his aides are launching a full-scale war against modern liberalism. And I’m very worried that they will be successful. Though what exactly defines liberalism is contested, the term generally refers to the protection of individual rights, such as free speech and property ownership. But self-identified liberal politicians and liberal voters in the United States and around the world (particularly in Europe) have embraced a much broader set of values and practices that I’m referring to as modern liberalism.

Those include robust higher-education systems where students and professors have a significant amount of freedom in what they teach and research; attempts to ensure equality across lines of race, gender and sexual orientation; respect for independent authorities that act as a check on elected leaders, such as the news media; enthusiasm for ethnic, racial and religious diversity, as well as immigration, free-trade agreements, and other forms of multilateralism and multiculturalism.
[…]
Now, Trump is taking on modern liberalism even more aggressively, by firing inspectors general, freezing federal funding for scientific research, restricting immigration, trimming transgender rights and making a number of other moves in his first nine days in office that previous Democratic and Republican presidents had avoided. Many of his actions resemble and are borrowed from other anti-liberal politicians, including Hungary’s Viktor Orban and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.”


Trump is pursuing a reckless, irresponsible, and destructive agenda that is illiberal, fascist, and authoritarian – contrary to the norms recognized and respected by both Democratic and Republican presidents.
What? You don’t like a return to the social structures of the 1920s America?

A patronage system of government employment.

Monopolistic capitalism?

And no safety net for employment, health and opportunities?
 
“Modern” Liberalism = Socialism
Yes it's also Marxism. Marxism promotes the tearing down of the existing society by taking over education, media and politics. Pitting citizens against each other by promoting help for some and not others, confusing children as to the legacy of their country and even their own natal sex. They almost got away with it. We have to, as a country, reject 'non-gender.' We also need to dismantle the over aggressive environmental policies (which is most of them). That would be a good start to getting America back and making it great again.

You know nothing of Karl Marx or what he advocated for

We can abolish the EPA completely.

Well, I suspect he figures he needs to work quickly, let's democrats take congress at mid terms and stop his agenda...


He will try to pack as much of it as he can in the first 2 years...expecting an impeachment in 2026

Let's hope that liberals will lose the war and restore sanity to the US.

How desperate can you be? You told me recently you agree that Biden won the 2020 election yet you excitedly support a man who doesn't know that, refuses to admit that; you've got a problem there man, you don't realize it yet but sooner or later you will.
 
It's more of a war on progressivism, you people are no where near what classic liberalism is

Really? Quote it. With link. Otherwise, keep your lies off the Board, dickbreath.
yet you excitedly support a man who doesn't know that,
I am thrilled that Trump is President and that has nothing to do with the outcome of the 2020 race, dickbreath.
refuses to admit that;
Ordinarily, dickbreath, one doesn’t “admit” anything one doesn’t believe. He’s not obligated to believe that election’s alleged official outcome.
you've got a problem there man, you don't realize it yet but sooner or later you will.

I’m not the one with the problem. You are, dickbreath.

It’s not 2020 anymore. 😎👍

I might have been mistaken then, that's a shame because the 1% respect I did have for you has now dropped to 0%.
I am thrilled that Trump is President and that has nothing to do with the outcome of the 2020 race, dickbreath.
Yes I know, you mistake a trouble maker for a man of action.
Ordinarily, dickbreath, one doesn’t “admit” anything one doesn’t believe. He’s not obligated to believe that election’s alleged official outcome.
You're quite sick, the level you are prepared to stoop to to defend blatant lies is sickening.
I’m not the one with the problem. You are, dickbreath.
Well I'd call being a conspiracy fantasist neo-fascist was a problem.
It’s not 2020 anymore.
Well you got that right, there's hope for you yet.
