It’s the last week of 2023 and 2024 already feels like too much to handle—what with Donald Trump’s promise to be a dictator for “one day” if reelected and his insistence that immigrants are “poisoning” American blood. 
In The New Abnormal’s latest episode, hosts Danielle Moodie and Andy Levy chat with the Center for American Progress’ president Patrick Gaspard about Trump’s “aspirational fascism” and the stakes in the coming election.

“He's promised to use his Department of Justice to go after political enemies and said he would instruct his Attorney General to indict and possibly jail anyone he opposes,” Gaspard notes. “He called his opponents vermin, the kind of language we haven't heard since the National Socialists in Germany in the 1930s. And he said that his political opponents in America pose a greater threat than our enemies in North Korea, and he would treat them accordingly. These are not things that we're projecting on him.”

Trump Touts Poll Showing His Main Goals are "Revenge" & "Dictatorship" -  MeidasTouch Network
The Daily Mail recently conducted an extensive poll asking likely voters to give a one-word answer to describe what they expect if there is either a second Trump or Biden term. 
  • The most common response to their expectations for a second Trump term was "Revenge." 
  • That was followed by "Power," "Dictatorship," "Economy," "Dictator," and "Border."
The belief by voters that the primary focus of a second Trump term will be revenge by a dictator is not one that a candidate would normally embrace
  • In fact, you would typically expect a presidential candidate to disavow such a poll result and try to assuage voters that will not be the case. 
  • But this is Donald Trump, who seems to relish and embrace this prospect. 
  • Hours after the poll results were released, Trump actually posted a screen shot of the results on Truth Social.

Trump has already said that he is going to continue invoking the Hitler rhetoric about immigrants "poisoning the blood of our country." 
  • He also seems to be fully embracing the belief that he will act like a dictator in a second term - he has called for the suspension of the Constitution in certain circumstances, and pledged one unconstitutional policy after another that he says he will implement by Executive Order. 
  • Trump's praise of authoritarian leaders around the globe is also no accident. 
  • At this point, it appears that he is actually seeking a mandate from the voters on a dictatorship.

When you consider this along with the messianic messaging by pastors at every one of his rallies, you can clearly see that his voting base is being prepped for an authoritarian form of government being necessary and preferable. 

  • The message from these right-wing political pastors to the cultists is that America is being controlled by dark, sinister, Satanist, deep-state forces, and a traditional president who believes in institutions and separations of powers cannot defeat the cabal. 
  • They are conditioning people that only a strong-man authoritarian can defeat the forces of darkness, and Trump has been chosen by God to be the person to do that.

Scary stuff.

In the history of the American Republic, we have never had a political leader openly advocate for an authoritarian form of government. Trump seems to be doing just that. The only question now is whether enough voters agree with him.
