Retired circuit court judge and Baptist pastor on how to defeat Trump's Fascist movement

https://baptistnews.com/article/this-is-how-to-defeat-trumps-fascist-movement/

Finally, be alert for authoritarian-minded politicians, journalists and, yes, preachers as well, after the 2024 election is history. JD Vance, Ron DeSantis, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Robert Jeffress, Franklin Graham, James Dobson, John Hagee, the Heritage Foundation, Family Research Council and the monied interests behind Project 2025 are not going away, even if Trump is defeated in November.

Defeating Trump will not end the threat of fascism in the United States. Fascism operated openly in the United States — disguised as religious (Christian or other religion) nationalism — as a political ideology a long time before Donald Trump. Fascism will threaten our society — thanks to religious nationalism — even if Trump is defeated.

But if we defeat Trump, fascism will not be the ideology that directs the next presidential administration. That is the victory we must win in November.
