Where are these autocratic ideas coming from? Better yet, who is pushing these ideas?
President Trump leans toward being a “global dominator” with his administration’s policies. It’s interesting as to who is behind the scenes. I doubt that these ideas are coming from Trump. I don’t believe he understands the word sovereignty or the importance of allies.
I believe, based on reporting, Trump is not well read nor has the intellect to push these disastrous policies. So no, they can’t be the president’s ideas. To me, he is a megalomaniac and will approve whatever if it fits that model.
I think these ideas are coming from a small, hateful group. A group of puppeteers controlling Trump. It’s public sentiment and well documented that Trump is easily manipulated. This influential group holds neo-Nazi ideology that rivals the ideology of the 1930s.
Use side-by-side comparison of 1932 and 2025, e.g., promoting hate against certain groups, threats to human rights, expansion of country, eliminating media freedom, rule by intimidation, demonizing opponents and controlling voting. The similarities are shocking and should awaken Americans.
Sure, Trump is entertaining with his incoherent speeches and his off-topic interviews. Their isolationist views are destructive, and ignoring the rule of law at home may be America’s downfall. Every day we see lies, secrets and now deaths caused by the Trump administration. And they may just be getting started.
