Conservatives Plot To Dismantle US Government, Replace With TFG's Vision

The right-wing extermist Heritage coalition is gearing up for 2024 in what they hope will be right wing extremists regaining control and establishing unity executive power for TFG, a government with broad unitary authority for the president to act alone.

Democracy and majority rule just hasn't worked out for the Guns Over Party nut jobs. Their unpopular medieval era ideas can only survive through authoritarian minority rule. So they're going to country fairs to recruit other like-minded conservatives willing to carry out their vision of a unitary executive government.

With more than a year to go before the 2024 election, a constellation of conservative organizations is preparing for a possible second White House term for TFG, recruiting thousands of Americans to come to Washington on a mission to dismantle the federal government and replace it with a vision closer to his own.
...
With a nearly 1,000-page “Project 2025” handbook and an “army” of Americans, the idea is to have the civic infrastructure in place on Day One to commandeer, reshape and do away with what Republicans deride as ...bureaucracy, in part by firing as many as 50,000 federal workers.
...
TFG-era conservatives want to gut the “administrative state” from within, by ousting federal employees they believe are standing in the way of the president’s agenda and replacing them with like-minded officials more eager to fulfill a new executive’s approach to governing.
...
if TFG wins a second term, the work from the Heritage coalition ensures the president will have the personnel to carry forward his unfinished White House business. - HuffPost

Those millions of republicans want an authoritarian gov't but they mistakenly think they will be the few thousand elites actually in charge.

Those millions are useful tools for those who will actually be in charge.

One poster called it a 'new social feudalism age'.

they're brainwashed drones with extremist viewpoints. Pawns in someone else's game, because watching right-wing TV boosts their low self esteem.
