Be brave. Stay informed. Share to inform.
We are in grave danger. This is not hyperbole. Trump’s speech last night was terrifying preview of what’s to come and it got almost no attention

Experts on authoritarianism have said for years that dynastic fascism is the endgame.
He just flat out said he and his family are never going to leave the White House. Ever. After four more years “we’ll negotiate.”
We need to stop acting like this is not happening. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304971015647301632

“Rigged election” that they are trying to steal. He is again making it clear he has no plan to accept the actual election results. None. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304980901668048896
I think I did a decent job explaining their game plan here if you don’t want to sleep tonight. It is not pretty but knowledge is power. https://twitter.com/losttacovendor/status/1304903504931110913
Same clip. Incumbents often boast of relationships with NATO and foreign allies, e.g. Reagan (Thatcher), Bush 41 (Gorbachev), Obama (Merkel).
Trump brags about Xi Jinping, Putin & Kim Jong Un - murderous tyrants with absolute power. These are his allies and who he aspires to be https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304980901668048896

POTUS* endorsing sectarian violence and murder. Again.
Goal of “antifa” fear mongering was always to have all protesters-political, BLM, unions, etc.-be designated “terrorists” subject to state sanctioned violence.
US Marshals “could fix the Portland problem in half an hour.” https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304978737696509952

Barr has telegraphed this since deploying US Marshals to “protect monuments” and creating phony “task force” investigating “antifa.”
If you think he sounds like W. discussing al Qaeda, that is the point and will be justification for increasing violence. http://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/william-barr-task-force-anti-government-extremists-antifa-boogaloo/2020/06/26/138f424e-b7bf-11ea-a510-55bf26485c93_story.html%3foutputType

Voter intimidation. He wants violence and chaos at the polls. QAnon and right wing militias in heavily Democratic areas armed with AR-15s looking for “antifa,” threatening poll workers, blocking off parking, stopping votes from being counted, etc. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304988587532922880
And remember why he wants you at the polls to begin with instead of voting by mail. https://twitter.com/losttacovendor/status/1304971165157306368
Trump demands prison for political opponents, including Mueller(?), Hillary and her lawyers. (Obama later mentioned).
“There must be repercussions.” Punishing political opposition is how Putin stays in power. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304977997271830529

Continuation of the above.
This will definitely happen in a 2nd term. Dissenters and political “enemies” jailed and falsely charged. Show trials.
It may happen before the election. Barr is now running bogus investigation of Obama/Biden, to be completed prior to the election https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304978452412616704

One of many “October Surprises” coming soon. Obama, Biden, Ukraine, whatever. Don’t fall for it. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/08/01/barr-durham-investigation-election/%3foutputType=amp
Minimizing deaths he personally caused and crediting himself with saving 3.5 million people. His followers believe this, too.
No social distancing or mask wearing even though released tapes show Trump knows how deadly the virus is. This is a death cult. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304986106308562944

Democrats and “super libs” will indoctrinate children, erase borders, destroy suburbs, end 2nd amendment, etc. All incendiary lies designed to incite fear and hatred.
As @atrupar points out this is fascist rhetoric. Also racist dog whistles. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304984741167468545

Insanity and projection.
This is actually what he has done in his first term and it will get even worse in a second term.
Please follow @BandyXLee1 for proper psychoanalysis but he is saying he is just going to keep killing us. Every year will be 2020. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304987822756106242

Trump does not care if anyone on the West Coast or in a blue state dies. He does not care. He did the same thing with the coronavirus. Intentionally. Now he is doing it with wildfires. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1304995088184094726
Not even half the speech but disgusting media complicity. He’s now being praised for a hate filled, unhinged, protofascist, anti-American speech. They have normalized a monster. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1305004143527026688
More on the above and how the fourth estate has failed us. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2020/08/30/media/trump-fascism-reliable/index.html
Finally, thank you to @atrupar who is a great reporter and one of few brave enough to say the “F word” - fascism. I hope read his comments as well as mine (if you even made it this far).
