Nope, there's no agenda to coax people or whatever. I'm saying that Trump will end the modern western world because, if he regains the powers of the presidency, he will in fact end the modern western world. It's a correct assessment based on everything Trump has said and done, combined with an understanding of history, and the nature of malignantly-narcissistic psychopaths.

If you still doubt me, I'd invite you to study the following things:

- Project 2025 and Agenda 47

- The Enabling Act of 1933 and Hitler's rise to power in the years leading up to it. (Especially take note of how those raising the alarm about Hitler were largely ignored.)

- Trump's rhetoric on undocumented immigrants, including multiple instances of echoing literal Nazi propaganda.

- His plans for concentration camps for 15+ million immigrants (hint: the camps won't just be used for immigrants).

- Trump's praise for dictators, especially Putin and Orban. He even met with Orban to discuss plans for a 2nd presidency.

- Trump's disdain for NATO and his obvious desire to undermine and weaken it as much as possible.

- All the times he "accidently" dog whistled to white supremacists. ie: "stand back and stand by", "Unified Reich", etc.

- Denies climate change.

- Denies the existence of trans people.

- Spent the past decade constantly demonizing his political opponents, wrongfully labelling them as America-hating monsters who are determined to destroy the country.

- Was so angry about losing the 2020 election that he riled up his supporters with lies and angry rhetoric, culminating in an insurrection at the Capitol. He then filed dozens of lawsuits claiming the election was stolen, and when those failed, he tried a fake elector scheme to try and steal the election. He continues to this day to lie about the election being stolen, even though he knows full well it wasn't.

Now take into account that both the supreme court and Judge Cannon (Trump-appointed judge) have taken every possible legal twist and turn that they could possibly take to help Trump to the absolute maximum extent possible. No reasonable person could look at what they did with Trump's court cases and say that their agenda was anything other than to push the cases out until after the election and help Trump avoid being held accountable for his crimes.

I'm sorry but, there's no equivalency here between Trump's first term and what he will do if he gets another. He's become so power-hungry that he will do whatever it takes to hang on to it permanently. And with the supreme court in his pocket, there's really no restraint on what he can do in terms of wiping out his political opposition and media outlets that don't give him favorable coverage 100% of the time. Literally the only real check on his power will be which orders the military chooses not to follow. Chances are, they'll follow all or most of them.

Humanity really is on the brink here.
