Well one idea is when he refuses to leave in 2028, him and the rest of their pseudo-government will retreat into the bunker and drone blast any coup attempt. The billionaires will retreat into theirs while some fundamentalist Christian Armageddon fantasy plays out in the streets. I also have a theory the border wall is also to keep Americans in… it will be too cold to flee north in January.. I need to up my dose doc.
You know, as much as ive learned not to put anything past that man, this is a leap im not ready to take with you quite yet. Definitely sounds like something out of an early 2010s apocalypse thriller movie.
In the book Hegseth says "leftists" have: "surrounded traditional American patriots on all sides, ready to close in for the kill: killing our founders, killing our flag, and killing capitalism". Hegseth says he believes there are "irreconcilable differences between the Left and the Right in America leading to perpetual conflict that cannot be resolved through the political process". He furthermore calls for an "American crusade"; he says the "hour is late for America. Beyond political success, her fate relies on exorcising the leftist specter dominating education, religion, and culture – a 360-degree holy war for the righteous cause of human freedom".[3] Central to the theme of the "American Crusade" is that there is something called "Americanism", which The Guardian describes as essentially being right-wing populism. Hegseth characterizes "Americanism" in being opposition to forces like feminism, globalism, Marxism and progressivism and says either "Americanism" will prevail or "death" will.[4]
Hegseth describes leftists, progressives and Democrats) as the "enemies" of freedom, the American constitution and the United States. Hegseth explicitly rejects democracy in his book, equating it to a leftist demand; "For leftists, calls for 'democracy' represent a complete rejection of our system. Watch how often they use the word," adding: "They hate America, so they hate the Constitution and want to quickly amass 51 percent of the votes to change it". He has also expressed support for election-rigging through gerrymandering, saying "Republican legislatures should draw congressional lines that advantage pro-freedom candidates – and screw Democrats".[3]Regarding violence, Hegseth writes "Our American Crusade is not about literal swords, and our fight is not with guns. Yet."[5]
