Trump lies about accomplishments but is honest about what he says he wants. And what he has said are things like “wanting to be a dictator ‘for a day’” and wanting to use the National Guard or the military to go after political opponents. He has said that those on the other side are the scum of our country and need to be removed. He has said he wants to deport legal and illegals from the country. It is easy to verify these statements.
When Trump says he wants to do fascist things, I believe him.

Whether he supports it or not, Trump is ushering in Project 2025. The Republican party has control over the presidency, the senate, and the house. Additionally the Supreme Court has been compromised. Disagree if you want but Project 2025 is a christo-fascist plan to overtake the entire government. The implementation of Project 2025 is a literal life or death situation for a lot of the country. It will cause many women, people of color, queer people, and gender non-conforming people to die. This will also kill many services and programs that the working class people rely upon. This will only benefit the powerful and uber-wealthy. For everyone else it will be a horribly dystopic future. Anyone who thinks that they will benefit from this is misunderstanding how much will actually change. Otherwise they would have to lack empathy for their fellow humans.
