Man Behind Project 2025 Just Said the Quiet Part Out Loud

The slippery slope is like a gradual descent or gentle move to a lower place and it takes a while .... the further you go, the faster you go down .... eventually at one point, you're traveling so fast down the slope that there is no more turning back and you have no choice but to fall off the edge.

They need to go to prison. Violence will just incite more violence. I understand the frustration, but it won't end up as we want it if they think violence is the answer. It's not only a high road. They will retaliate 3 fold. And they want the reason.

Not entirely. I would much rather have a thief in my house than a fashist.

Because when he talks about "non-violence" he skips over the persecution of minorities and enemies of the state.

And enemies of the state can include anyone they want. For example pregnant women.

"First they came ..."

Don't forget IVF, sex education, (soon?) contraceptives, history education, any behavior not conforming to traditional European gender roles, medical care for the poor, social assistance for the poor, free meals for children, the arts....

I could probably go on a while.

This is why the punishment for treason is hanging.

Takes the wind out of your sails a bit to see the leader of your violent ideology's legs dangle and flail.

Fascism is alive and well in America, and it’s getting ready to seize power.

They have already seized power. They just need to officially install their dictator.

If Trump wins then that exactly what we will need to do. I hate it but as a father of LGBTQ teens motherfuckers going die trying to take my kids away to some camp.

I will fight when the time comes.

nothing else.

A rope and a short fall would be ok too, and well within Biden's power to protect the country.

The president of the Heritage Foundation on Tuesday declared that a new revolution is already underway in the U.S., appearing to warn Liberals that violence could erupt if they tried to stop it.

Kevin Roberts, whose uber-conservative think tank is behind the highly controversial “Project 2025” blueprint for a second Donald Trump presidency, made the comment during an appearance on Real America’s Voice. “We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,” Roberts said.

Heritage’s Project 2025 calls for a huge increase in presidential power as well as a transformation of the federal government, replacing existing staffers with an army of those loyal to Trump. Roberts has previously said he sees his organization’s role as “institutionalizing Trumpism.”

In his interview Tuesday, Roberts said that despite “all this nonsense from the left, we are going to win.” “We’re in the process of taking this country back,” he said. “No one in the audience should be despairing.”

He also opined that the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling granting presidents immunity for official acts is “vital,” mentioning Alexander Hamilton’s view of the importance of a “vigorous executive.” Roberts then turned his attention to “the radical left.”

“The reason that they are apoplectic right now, the reason that so many anchors on MSNBC, for example, are losing their minds daily is because our side is winning,” he said. “And so I come full circle on this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.”

Talk of bloodshed has been a disturbing seam running through conservative rhetoric during this election cycle. Trump sparked controversy in March predicting a “bloodbath” for the country if he didn’t win in November, later saying he was only referring to the auto industry. The Republican National Committee launched a “Biden Bloodbath” website the following month amid the unusually high interest in the word.

In April, Trump was also asked unambiguously if he thought there’d be political violence if he loses in November. “I think we’re going to win. And if we don’t win, you know, it depends,” Trump told Time. “It always depends on the fairness of an election.”
