Does the Trump administration want “racial violence”?

Seems to me the current administration is trying to cause a domestic crisis. If/when it becomes violent. Authoritarian strategies will seem justified.
Djt is literally a facist.
facism defined as “a far-right, authoritarian political ideology and mass movement that prioritizes the nation and race over the individual. Characterized by a dictatorial leader, aggressive nationalism, militarism, and the violent suppression of opposition, it emerged in Europe in the early 20th century. The term originated from the Italian political party led by Benito Mussolini.
Key characteristics of fascism include:
Dictatorial leadership: Power is concentrated in a single leader who is presented as infallible.
Militarism and nationalism: It glorifies the military and prioritizes extreme, often exclusionary, nationalism.
Suppression of opposition: Any form of dissent is violently suppressed, and basic human rights are disregarded.
Belief in hierarchy: Fascism promotes a rigid social structure and the rule of elites, in opposition to democracy and liberalism.
Scapegoating and victimization: It identifies internal and external "enemies" to unify the populace and focuses on a narrative of national decline or humiliation.
Control of media: The government seeks to control mass media and promote myths and lies to control the narrative.
Intertwined religion and government: In fascist states, government and religion are often merged, and business interests are protected.
Glorification of violence: Violence is often glorified as a means of achieving national goals.”

I agree with you that Trump, as per his Modus Operandi, is creating or inflaming and enhancing a problem for him to solve and exploit and justify authoritarian strategies.

I'm not sure that calling it a racial crisis doesn't inflame things even more, though, as may calling him a fascist.

@jehova I didn't say he wasn't a fascist. But his followers just hear name calling.

They're the same folks who think they're conservatives.

@MistyCee and I didn’t say he was I asked a question and provided a definition of the word facism

What is your intellectual support for that theory? (Keeping in mind that Intellectual support for a theory often comes from empirical evidence, research findings, and critical analysis that validate its principles and concepts.)

@AmericanAvenger Read my post’s description. Given I’m not trying to get targeted, I can only allude to the evidence. the reader must assemble the clear evidence for themselves.

@jehova Man enough to stand up and make assertions always comes with man enough to back it up = credibility
In a word...yes.

He relies upon social division and disharmony to remain relevant. Unfortunately America has a long history of racial division, so disharmony will most naturally manifest itself in racism.

What do you call violently attacking law enforcement carrying out the enforcement of the law?
Legal crisis, yes. Maybe not focussing is all we'll ever do! Lolz.

He's definitely a racist. His indignation at not being able to say the n word for instance.

The democrat party proves over and over that they are the party of violence and hate.
@ron122 I see you are lying again.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Maga reminds me of the game We Happy Few, it's at that point of being that kind of deluded.
@ron122 except they’re not, are they?
