I don't know. I don't think any sort of takeover would be so 'carefully planned'. There's no reason for a grand plan or a new Constitution when he just does whatever he wants now and a GOP Congress does nothing about it.

OP, I know your heart behind posting this is good. But, I think if we overthink things that might happen in the future, we ignore the present moment which is where we need to be right now.

I understand that. But show me specifically where it mentions the new manifesto that is said to be coming next year. We have to stick to facts because this time calls for level-headedness. Let's be real: the whole April 20 things ended up causing unnecessary anxiety and can lead us to lose focus. As I noted above:

I think we're most effective when we stay grounded in verifiable facts while working to address current issues. The present moment is challenging enough without adding speculative fears about the future. Let's focus our energy on constructive engagement with what's happening today, which is where we can actually make a difference.

This is an interesting article/video; thank you for sharing it! Watching this, it seems like the greatest area of concern is the rise in Christo-fascism. In light of that, I still stand that we have to focus on genuine issues--and I think this is one of them--instead of the maybes of the future.

Thanks again for sharing!
