Your first line is something we both agree on, though how it eats itself I think we differ. Yes it has to be aggressive, always needing a lightning rod. So either foreign nations, or internal undesirables. However these aggressive actions is why fascism doesn’t just blow over, usually some people step up due to their grievances and put the rabid animals down. And if they don’t, well Russia is a pretty big living example of America’s future if we don’t fight.
On top of which, none of this blows over when Trump dies. He’s a puppet, they’ll just get a new one. Fox news, and the other billionaire owned mainstream media will play them up just like they did with Trump. And MAGA will follow not long after, with possible new recruits since “Trump is no more”. The worst part being is even with our soft and hard power eroded we can still do a lot of damage with the weapons we do have, and it may escalate with the next puppet.
Then of course that’s only focusing myopically on America alone. If we look at the pattern of right winged politics being on the rise in multiple countries including Canada. In fact Alberta is trying to pull a brexit right now, and I have no doubt billionaires are flooding anything tangentially related to Alberta with propaganda to make that happen. Just like they did with the UK. And like they did with our elections.
With all that said, I can’t disagree with a run strategy. I thought your original strategy was to do nothing, which is a dumb way to survive, as you leave everything to chance. However running does two things that I find beneficial, one is survival, the 2nd being getting the fuck out of the way. So please run, and do it quickly. If our current pattern holds, this country will be a giant prison in a short amount of time.

The damage will remain. But Trump holds the charisma power of his movement. MAGA will continue to exist, sure, but without a unifier and their proclivity for being “anti-establishment” in their aesthetics, they will likely splinter and in-fight.
Neocons will likely regain their footholds along post-trump grifters in the republican party. But they’ll pale in comparison in their political power and influence.
RIghtwing politics in general however will thrive. The institutional capture is very thorough.
getting the fuck out of the way.
Of what? I think you’ll be disappointed at the numbers that join a violent cause in favor of leftism in the US. And those stupid or crazy enough to do so are not going to be the most valuable contingent of individuals.
