Project 2025: GOP’s Plan to Make Trump a DICTATOR
Project 2025 is Republican’s Radical plan to make Trump a Dictator by increasing his authority over every part of the Federal Government so he can end Democracy, end Freedom of Speech and eliminate Freedom of the Press by shutting down media outlets which have been critical of him and order the Department of Justice to prosecute political enemies..
‘Project 2025’: Trump & Radical Right Wing Republicans Plan to turn the United States into a Fascist Dictatorship
Trump is so insane and unhinged that he told citizens to drink bleach to get rid of Covid, Tear Gassed Citizens, and when he lost the 2020Lost the Election, he SNAPPED. He lied about the 2020 election, claiming he “Won in a landslide” and the election was “Rigged” and “Stolen” with no proof… REFUSED to admit defeat and used legal tactics to challenge the election results in swing states and when those challenges didn’t work he resorted to inciting his deluded & brainwashed followers to engage in a violent COUP to overturn our government to make himself an UN-elected dictator to stay in power against the will of the people.
Now Trump wants to be a DICTATOR, to Terminate the Constitution, has Threaten a “Bloodbath” if he’s not elected, wants Revenge and will stop at nothing to get it.
Trump has always been a vengeful asshole as shown in the above video and has threaten revenge against political enemies if elected in 2024.
How Trump is Following Hitler’s Playbook
Representative Gerry Connolly explains Trump and his cronies have openly stated they intend to “terminate rules, regulations & articles, even those in the Constitution”, invoke the “Insurrection Act” & declare “Martial Law” to Quash Protests, use “Shock Troops” to take over the government, replace 50,000 Federal Employees with Trump loyalists, eliminate Freedom of Speech and shut down media outlets which have been critical of him.
Kevin Roberts, the president of the Heritage Foundation, which is the organization behind Project 2025, just gave a chilling interview on national television that gives a dark glimpse into what is in store for America if Donald Trump wins in November.
Trump’s TERRIFYING PLAN gets EXPOSED on Live TV
Authoritarian expert breaks down dangers of Project 2025
Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Professor of history and scholar of authoritarianism, speaks to Ali Velshi about Project 2025’s plans to consolidate power if Trump wins the presidency in 2025, including who’s on their hypothetical list of pre-screened loyalists to join the Trump administration, and why their plan to abolish federal agencies is so uniquely dangerous to democracy.
Trump believes a President should have absolute “Presidential Immunity” to the extent he could order SEAL Team Six to kill a political opponent and be immune to criminal prosecution.
Trump’s attorney argues to the Supreme Court that he should have the authority to have absolute immunity to do anything he wants, including having a political opponent murdered
Trump posted & stated on 11/11/2023; ”We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections”.
In response to outrage over Trump’s ‘vermin’ comment, his campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung stated about Trump opponents; “their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”
Trump’s insane statements prove he intends to violate his Oath of Office, the United States Constitution and Citizens Rights on DAY ONE. His claiming he’s only going to be a Dictator for ONE DAY is BS. Let’s not forget how Fact Checkers found Trump LIED over 30,000 times while President, so he has no credibility. He did everything possible to stay in office after he lost in 2020. If he gets back in the White House in 2024, he isn’t leaving… he’s made it clear; he wants to be a DICTATOR FOR LIFE. Under Trump’s rule, the United States could become like Russia where dissenters are arrested, locked up and executed.
Trump has proven to be a lawless pathological liar, narcissistic psychopath and a clear & present danger which the RNC is recklessly unleashing onto the American public by enabling, sponsoring and promoting on they’re ticket.
How Wannabe Dictators become REAL Dictators
Trump & The End of Democracy
Republicans admitting they want a dictatorship and want to eliminate Democracy.
In an interview with Andy Borowitz from The New Yorker on May 9, 2018, Trump Stated about the United States Constitution; “I’ve seen a lot of bad deals in my life, but this Constitution is a total mess. We need to tear it up and start over. The first thing we do when we pull out of the Constitution is get rid of two of those branches. He also called the First Amendment “something that really has to go. No one in his right mind would put something like that in a Constitution. Russia doesn’t have it. North Korea doesn’t have it. All the best countries don’t have it.”
Trump & Republicans have stated their intentions in ‘Project 2025’ to turn the Presidency into a Presidential Dictatorship by increasing the president’s authority over every part of the federal government so he cannot be restrained or held accountable by congress or the courts. He intends to bring independent agencies under direct presidential control, such as the Federal Communications Commission, which makes and enforces rules for television and internet companies, the Federal Trade Commission, which enforces various antitrust and other consumer protection rules against businesses, the FBI, CIA and Attorney General’s office.
Trump & his cronies have made it clear they want violate the First Amendment & Freedom of Speech by shutting down news outlet which are critical of him. Using plans outlined in ‘Project 2025’ and Martial Law, he could order the FCC to shut down any TV Network which is critical of him or says something he doesn’t like. He could also order his Attorney General to Arrest and Prosecute anyone for no reason at all and that person would have no recourse.
He intends to strip employment protections from tens of thousands of career civil servants, making it easier to replace them if they are deemed obstacles to his agenda. And he plans to scour the intelligence agencies, the State Department and the defense bureaucracies to remove officials not loyal to him.

How Trump hopes to become an American dictator
Trump says members of Jan. 6 Select Committee should go to jail
Under Republicans “Project 2025” plans, Trump could order his Attorney General to arrest and prosecute anyone for no reason at all. Trump even mentioned this in the above video saying if he had a political rival who was doing well and “beating me very badly I’d say go down and Indict them”. “That means that if I win and somebody wants to run against me, I call my attorney general, I say listen, indict him.
Radical Right Winger Mike Davis, who Trump might make his Attorney General has stated he’d pardon all of the January 6 rioters, toss opponents in ‘the gulag’ and caging migrant kids would be glorious.
Below is the post Davis referenced in the above video about putting Professor of History, Ruth Ben-Ghiat in the “Gulag”. Her crime? Being critical of Trump and calling him out for his Autocrat, Authoritarian, Fascist behavior which she claims is similar to Hitler & Mussolini.
March 28, 2024 Steve Bannon stated: “After we’ve won the Accountability Project’s going to start and it’s going to be thorough this time. It’s going to be they’re going to be in prison”.
Steve Bannon using TERRORIST threats saying; ‘we mock your fear, we want your fear’. We want you to be afraid because we are going to be coming after those who oppose Donald Trump and he will be imbued with authority to punish you.
Trump Henchman Steve Bannon wants “SHOCK TROOPS” to take over the Government
Kash Patel, who may be a member of Trump’s lawless, fascist “administration of terror”, recently stated; “We will go out and find the conspirators, not just in government but in the media,” Patel said. “Yes, we’re going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections — we’re going to come after you.
These types of statements are INSANE and show a total disregard for the United States Constitution and Citizens Rights. TRUMP and REPUBLICANS are the ones who LIED and attempted to RIG & STEAL the 2020 election. Trump and those in his potential “administration” have made it clear; they plan on engaging in a reign of LAWLESSNESS and TERROR.
On “The View” (Dec 6, 2023) co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who served as White House Director of Strategic Communications for Trump, claimed he wanted to have a member of his own staff ‘executed’ for leaking a story about him going to the bunker during the George Floyd protests.

You can STOP TRUMP
Aids say Trump is running for President to have all Federal Charges dismissed by his Attorney General if he’s elected. This is also a Motivation to stay in office and become a dictator so he’s never held accountable for his crimes
Trump and allies plot revenge, DOJ control in second term
“Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute and his associates drafting plans to potentially invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day in office to allow him to deploy the military against civil demonstrations.
In private, Trump has told advisers and friends in recent months that he wants the Justice Department to investigate onetime officials and allies who have become critical of his time in office, including his former chief of staff, John F. Kelly, and former attorney general William P. Barr, as well as his ex-attorney Ty Cobb and former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark A. Milley, according to people who have talked to him, who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations. Trump has also talked of prosecuting officials at the FBI and Justice Department, a person familiar with the matter said.
In public, Trump has vowed to appoint a special prosecutor to “go after” President Biden and his family. The former president has frequently made corruption accusations against them that are not supported by available evidence.
To facilitate Trump’s ability to direct Justice Department actions, his associates have been drafting plans to dispense with 50 years of policy and practice intended to shield criminal prosecutions from political considerations. Critics have called such ideas dangerous and unconstitutional.
“It would resemble a banana republic if people came into office and started going after their opponents” said Saikrishna Prakash, a constitutional law professor at the University of Virginia who studies executive power”. [source: washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/11/05/trump-revenge-second-term]

thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie. Trump is the BIGGEST LIAR IN HISTORY
Trump follows the playbook of NAZI Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbles
by telling HUGE lies and repeating them often so his GULLIBLE follows believe his lies
Trump calling Democrats ‘Communists’ and ‘Marxists‘ is another LIE and tactic used by NAZI Propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels; ‘If you repeat a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it’.
Trump uses Communists’ and ‘Marxists’ as Boogeyman phrases to demonize Democrats who he wants to DESTROY, because they are standing in the way of him becoming a Dictator and are holding him accountable for his crimes. Democrats fight for Democracy, the Rule of Law, the United States Constitution, Human Rights, the Middle Class and the Poor.
Trump vowed to root out the radical left thugs.
TRUMP is the REAL THUG – After being indicted in New York on 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree, Trump posted the above photo with a baseball bat aimed at New York Prosecutor Alvin Bragg’s head and threaten “death and destruction”.
Trump further proved to be a THUG by posting “If you go after me, I’m coming after you!” after he was indicted by a Federal Grand Jury on four counts relating to efforts to overturn the 2020 election leading up to the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
This is how MOB BOSSES and CRIMINALS behave.
Trump vowed to target ideological groups that he described as “radical left lunatics”
TRUMP is the REAL ‘LUNATIC’. More than two dozen psychiatrists and psychologists offer their consensus view that Trump’s mental state presents a clear and present danger to our nation and individual well-being. Renowned Psychologist Dr. John Gartner, who specializes in borderline personality disorder, biopolar disorder, and depression stated; Trump has the most dangerous form of mental illness that you can find in a leader… Malignant Narcissism”.
Dr. John Gartner stated; “If we could construct a psychiatric Frankenstein monster, we could not create a leader more dangerously mentally ill than Donald Trump,” Gartner began. “He is a paranoid, psychopathic, narcissist who is divorced from reality and lashes out impulsively at his imagined enemies. And this is someone who is handling the nuclear codes.”
Former Professor at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Lance Dodes suggested; “He lies in the way anybody who scams people does. He’s tried to sell an idea or a product by telling you something that is untrue. There is also the kind of lie he has that in a way is more serious — that he has a loose grip on reality. We can say that because he lies about things that aren’t that important. I think what that indicates is that he can’t stand an aspect of reality that he doesn’t want, so he rejects it,” Dodes continued. “His grasp of reality, his attention to reality is loose. This is an extremely dangerous trait in a president. It actually makes him unqualified.”
Even ex-Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan referred to Trump as an ‘Authoritarian Narcissist’. No normal person would lie with impunity like Trump has (over 30,000 times while President), refuse to admit he lost the election, claim he won after he lost, then instigate a coup and insurrection to overturn the election after he lost.
Numerous Mental Health professionals have stated Trump is “Textbook Narcissist”
According to the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) have at least five of the symptoms listed below;
- Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment by others
- Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
- Self-perception of being unique, superior, and associated with high-status people and institutions
- Needing constant admiration from others
- Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
- Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
- Unwilling to empathize with others’ feelings, wishes, or needs
- Intensely jealous of others and the belief that others are equally jealous of them
- Pompous and arrogant demeanor.
Renowned Psychologist : Like Hitler, Trump suffers from Sadism, Malignant Narcissism & Paranoia
Per the above article: “Renowned Psychologist Dr. John Gartner, who specializes in borderline personality disorder, biopolar disorder, and depression stated; Trump has the most dangerous form of mental illness that you can find in a leader… Malignant Narcissism”.
“Gartner stated that Malignant narcissism is a combination of 4 traits, which includes narcissism, paranoia, antisocial personality disorder (the psychology of a criminal and someone who routinely lies) and sadism”.
“The sadist aspects of Trump’s apparent mental illness, according is Gartner, means that “he is driven and gets intense pleasure from harming, humiliating, and degrading other people.”
“He has actually gotten intense pleasure from [other people’s] pain. He is reveling in the chaos and the destruction he is causing,” Gartner explained. “The more he feels threatened by the Mueller investigation, the more he needs to experience the exaltation of feeling drunk with power, through his ability to harm and humiliate and degrade other people.”
Psychiatrist Warns That Trump Has Become More ‘Psychotic’ As Trials Get Closer
Per the article referenced in the above video at; salon.com/2024/02/02/either-malpractice-or-criminal-dr-justin-frank-on-power-and
“Donald Trump has repeatedly shown that he is a lawless person — but his malign influence extends far beyond himself.
We are a society more divided than united. Many of us are anti-intellectual and don’t want to think. That makes such people attracted to strongmen and bullies like Trump. Trump has made his followers reject the truth for alternate facts – and that makes most of us insecure and uncertain about what to believe.
Trump’s “dangerous charisma” attracts already corrupt and ethically compromised people into his orbit. He also exerts a malignant perfidious influence over people who are vulnerable to such energy and temptations, but for whatever reason have not yet fully surrendered to them. This is a defining feature of dangerous leaders.
Dr. Frank continues to warn about Trump’s extremely dangerous mind and overall pattern of behavior and why as seen with the second E. Jean Carroll court case for defamation, and escalating threats of violence and retribution against his “enemies”, that the corrupt ex-president will not be stopped by “the walls closing in.” Instead, Dr. Frank predicts that Trump is a malignant narcissist who will go down in a blaze of glory before he ever surrenders or is otherwise made to yield in his assaults on society, human decency, and the rule of law.
From the time Trump was five years old, he hated rules and couldn’t control himself. If Trump didn’t like something, he would convert feelings into immediate action. He threw rocks at a toddler who lived next door when he was five. He punched out his second-grade teacher because he got mad at him. As a father, Trump knocked out his son, Don Jr., when he was in high school because he wasn’t dressed appropriately. Trump has always been like this. As people age, they generally do not change; they instead become more of their true selves. His capacity for self-restraint is becoming a thinner veneer over fundamental destructiveness. He is increasingly no longer able to fake it. This is why Trump is in court acting out, mumbling, being angry and disruptive.
In my opinion, Donald Trump is a “segmental thinker”. He lives in the moment and is attracted by a shiny object and forgets everything else.
The main thing that I am worried about is the complacency of the public and specifically the country’s leaders and law enforcement and other people in positions of authority and power who are still letting Trump run wild. Trump is extremely dangerous. Trump does not believe in laws and rules. He wants to be a lawless dictator. This is why I continue to share my conclusion, based on the evidence, that Donald Trump appears to be psychotic. He is a person who is detached from reality. Even with the trials and other pressures, Trump is not capable of breaking down, of being cowed and/or broken. If anything, Trump will go down in flames if he goes down at all. Trump is an extreme narcissist who will destroy anyone who has ever done anything to hurt him, to oppose him, or defy him.

According to former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich, Trump has been acting like head of a dictatorship rather than the U.S. democracy.

If you need the government shutdown 2019 explained, Trump is treating the government of the United States as a bargaining chip to get border wall progress. Many are saying Mitch McConnell is aiding the president in this display of authoritarianism.
