“When there’s a crash, I hope it’s going to be during this next 12 months because I don’t want to be Herbert Hoover. The one president – I just don’t want to be Herbert Hoover” Trump said in an interview that aired 1/8/2024 on the right-wing platform: Lindell TV. That comment tells us that 1) Trump doesn’t know how to stop an economic crisis; 2) Trump doesn’t know how to address the crisis if it occurs and 3) Trump cares nothing for the well-being of the American people, only himself. Fascist economics is nothing but propaganda taking credit from the success of others and blaming others for fascist lies and failures. This is the same fascist duplicity observed by Peter Drucker in 1930s Germany: “We don’t want higher bread prices. We don’t want lower bread prices. We want National Socialist bread prices”
When we hear Republicans blame Biden for the border crisis but then refuse to pass the legislation that they say is necessary to secure the border because their fascist leader doesn’t want Biden to get credit, that’s fascist duplicity. Only Republicans, along with their right wing media, and the cartels say the border is open because only they profit from it. Who else says that and who else profits from it? Who else called for and organized caravans to come up here during past election years? The border isn’t open but it is overwhelmed in large part due to Republican lies. Also, when border security is tied to Ukrainian defense, Republican politics are more than fascist duplicity; they’re pro-Russian anti-American appeasement.
The so called Black Lives Matter riots ended when Trump left office. Republicans will lie and pretend the BLM riots were Democratic inspired but we know of at least 2 fascist instigators who came to aggravate the riots: 1) Alleged Boogaloo member, Steven Carrillo, who murdered two cops in Oakland after a BLM protest in an attempt to blame Democrats, and 2) Kyle Rittenhouse, who killed 2 people in Wisconsin. It seems some Republicans were instigating violence because they believe that they profit from the violence by blaming Democrats.
These are but 3 examples of how fascist duplicity uses obstructionism and violence in order to propagate the Big Lie that fascists have solutions for our problems. Fascism opposes actual problem resolution because fascism thrives and relies upon never-ending division, hatred, ignorance and fear. It’s how fascism works.
