Trump Is Running On The Most Authoritarian Platform In US History

Donald Trump's second-term plans go further than anything we've seen before in America. Anyone downplaying it is missing the stakes. Here’s my video breakdown of just how extreme his platform is.

Donald Trump is running on the most authoritarian policy platform in American history, and this past weekend, he made sure to remind Americans of exactly how extreme his agenda truly is.

Over the weekend, Trump took to Truth Social, repeated his 2020 election lies, and laid the groundwork to challenge the 2024 election before even a single vote has been cast. As I outlined in my newsletter last week, Trump’s election denial rhetoric is backed by action from both the Trump Campaign and the RNC.

Among the more disturbing things Trump said in this post, he also promised to jail Democratic donors, political operatives, and election officials. After seeing this, and in reaction to the disinformation I’m seeing on TikTok, I decided to do a video breakdown outlining exactly how authoritarian Donald Trump’s agenda truly is. I drew from articles I’ve written in this newsletter about Project 2025 over the past year, warning about this absurd extremism.

Anyone, especially those in the media, treating Trump like a normal candidate is vastly downplaying the stakes of this election.

So, I thought I’d do something a little different and share that video with you here as a bonus post this week. You can watch it in the embed above, on Twitter, or on my new TikTok account - follow me there because I’m going to be making more videos. We need to spread the truth on every platform we can.
