Well I guess I watched Pearl last night so may as well do this horror novel today. Immediate takeaways were concern for the Defense section being front and center, second only to eliminating the bureaucracy. They tend to have very loose definitions of those two things, don't they?

The next conservative President will enter office on January 20, 2025

Rather presumptuous of them, innit?

TL/DR. At least not yet. I assume their take on a majority of the government agencies listed in the TOC is to abolish them.

It's a sales pitch aimed at idiots.

Trying to turn the U.S. into Orban's Hungary basically.

"Nice country ya got there. Be a shame if anything 'appened to it."

 

[Norman Alexander]

From the few chapters I skip-read, it seems to be mostly "Let's go back to the good old days of the Trump administration, and take things downhill from there by making the president a dictator and cancelling everything but the military."

So yeah - Orbanising America.

The scary thing about this is that there is absolutely nothing stopping conservatives from putting this on a shelf if/when Trump loses, and warming it up again for the next GOP President. It's an instruction manual for practical Fascism, the specific person holding the Presidential Pen does not matter.

Establishment Conservatives saw how unprepared Trump was at the beginning of his term in office, and this is their answer. A ready-made, end-of democracy plan that will be implemented at the first available opportunity.

And they will get that chance sooner or later, because a large segment of the American public is too stupid and/or apathetic to prevent it.

The one thing that surprised me during the Trump administration is how little he seemed to do to try to more explicitly co-opt the military, which is absolutely primed for such a partisan turn. I'm guessing this has more to do with Trump's personality and him not really vibing with military type people that well.

A more competent person in his position would have done way, way more to make are already very right-wing leaning military more explicitly wholly partisan organization.

I'm doing my part! I'm sending NO THOUGHTS and NO PRAYERS to the GOP candidates.

It's the Republicans trying to out-spook Agenda 21.

Perhaps a quarter of the electorate actually want it.

And the US political system is that most well tailored to a fascist dictatoship since the collapse of the Roman republic.

Really? Name a single dictator, much less 'fascist' dictator, we've had since we became a nation over 240 years ago.

I think you know we are dealing with somebody who just plain does not like the US.

Its a pity I don't believe in Hell, because I would be happy if they were all to burn in it.
