The president of the right-wing group spearheading Project 2025 raised the specter of violence Tuesday against those who refuse to capitulate to what he characterized as “the second American Revolution” ushered in by presumptive GOP nominee and would-be authoritarian Donald Trump.
Kevin Roberts, head of the Heritage Foundation, said in an appearance on “Real America’s Voice” that the coming “revolution” will “remain bloodless if the left allows it to be”—a thinly veiled threat against those who resist the far-right’s efforts to seize power.
Trump said in April that whether there is violence surrounding the 2024 presidential election “depends” on the “fairness” of the contest and the outcome.

“We are going to win. We’re in the process of taking this country back,” declared Roberts, who has said Project 2025 is “institutionalizing Trumpism” in preparation for a possible victory in November.
I couldn’t agree more, the parallel between Nazi Germany and current day America is undeniable
Wonder if the rest of the sane world will have to make a deal with the devil, just not with the Soviets but the Chinese.
Imagine the Reichstag flag picture with a Chinese flag on the White House. Except everyone is in NBC suits and knows we’ll go extinct in years.
The American empire is much larger than the territories Germany controlled.
If the US were to become fascist, it would likely influence South America, Western Europe, the Caribbean, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, and other regions to follow suit.
No empire is that powerful … as soon as you think you can control a group of people with violence and fear, you’ve taken the first step to losing control.
It might work at first and it may even go on for a while but it won’t last.
It’s not a Hollywood fantasy either … every empire in history started with great power and ended in destruction. It won’t be pretty and it won’t work out as some epic drama but it will end because people everywhere will never stand for it.
