Malcolm Nance: Behind the Ideology of the Trump Insurgency

In the post-2020 world, Americans, having faced the controversies of the 2020 election and the January 6 insurrection, may be tempted to do their best to forget these events and move on - yet to bestselling author Malcolm Nance, this is the worst thing they can do. As the country is experiencing a sharp rise in radicalism and hostility toward democracy, Nance argues that it is more important than ever to be actively confronting the rise of a new threat to democracy from within.
Malcolm Nance is a leading expert in counter-terrorism studies, as well as an intelligence analyst, cryptologist, former senior chief petty officer in the United States Navy and founding executive director of the New York-based think tank Terror Asymmetrics Project on Strategy, Tactics and Radical Ideologies. Nance has written at length on the dangers posed by major terrorist groups, such as ISIS and al-Qaeda.
In his latest book, They Want to Kill Americans, Nance explains how conspiracy theories, white privilege and increasing hostility toward democracy have all contributed to the rise of what he calls a “Trump Insurgency in the U.S.,” or TITUS. Having forewarned of divisions in America turning into fractures in our country months before the January 6 insurrection, Nance warns that the rising generational threat may rival the Islamic State or al-Qaeda, and that immediate action is necessary to address this growing unrest before it is too late.
Join us as Nance explains how such a destructive force has sprung up in our own backyard, and what can be done to quell its growth.

I am proud to maintain my one year ago comment : "I noticed in the last couple years his comments, being so accurate and with such a clear vision of what is going on in today's international arena. Entertaining, funny, but very serious in substance and competence. He had the guts to face hot zones of conflict with a great desire to help, in fact all of us. Thank you Malcolm for your great service. People like you are really needed for the success of a better future world".

We L O V E Malcolm Nance💌 I still read Reader's Digest💖 In November 2016 the issue included: Trump and Clinton: 26 Points to Ponder. Unfortunately, the article should have been released prior to October/November. How anyone could have voted for tp is 🤯but the article nailed it. It was originally set to interview both candidates but tp said no and after a brief time HRC decided not to be interviewed. I remember (I can't find my copy) the article had points from people who cobbled together statements made over the years by both tp & HRC and gave a summary of what to expect from the presidency of each of them. I almost did not read it since it was past the election, SO glad I did! I never skip articles. One point I remember how tp was obsessed with nukes back when Pres. Reagan was in office. & you have to give HRC something to work on because she is a worker, she has to try and fix things

[@rebeccajohnson8579]

Truth is, if you are a Black American, we saw this after EACH presidential election! There was one decent one an in my eyes it was Jimmy Carter! What did they do to John F Kennedy and any other good, decent moral candidate who runs for President, if you have these BELIEFS, than the 1% who RUN & LITERALLY CONTROLL OUR GOVERNMENT will NOT ALLOW this to happen! Obama won and CAVED to the 1% after he won, despite the fact that we would finally feel HOPE & CHANGE but got a TINY TASTE of it! Bernie Sanders, we watched what they did to him! The leadership within the Dem Party is just as bad as the Republican Party, no if, ands about it! As far as I'm concerned, we will NEVER SEE, nor FEEL America living up to its Promise! Our Government, be it Federal, City or State is ROTTON & CORRUPT to its core!

@@rebeccajohnson8579 I agree with you, Carter was and I thanked him for giving me a part of my childhood without war, and ugliness. A man who gave us plenty to be proud of, a true man of service. I also hate what they did to Bernie, because I don't think he lies about anything, and they really hate him for that. He is also a good man in my eyes. We have let a handful of people become way too wealthy and way too powerful. I don't know how we fix it, but it should be dealt with, because they have shown they cannot be good stewards of their power, and they will use it to all of our demise if they feel so inclined, and that became crystal clear with 45.

To begin with,, our founders chose free expression of speech, meaning the government cannot arrest or harrass you for expressing yourself, even in a hateful way. Yet, if that speech harms you in some way, you can sue the speaker in civil court. That's in the first amendment,, making the principle almost impossible to change. The second amendment is now being interpreted by the NRA and several states as legal open carry of any deadly weapon. So, the combination of these two basic rights could be interpreted as.a legal right to shoot anyone who disagrees with my hate speech. Such hated people are often Liberals...for no reason other than we Liberals also support the Constitution, but in a far more humane empathetic way. That appears to be the attitude of too many Trump fans. I think of your question this way.

Knowing what you are capable of, I am inspired that my ideals and yours aline, my physical skills to actions aren't as sharpely honed as yours is true. Yet I will follow your lead in leading myself to better serve the greatest good of humanity with the love that we all share to be a better union of equal people. We have to open our own eyes to define the good the bad and the ugly of our own nation and stand to correct the record of those amongst ourselves who do not uphold with respect the ideal of being a decent human being, with the question of where do you want to go from here. We have to beat them at the ballot box, we have to defend our individual States to administer and certify that no actor of Malice whose previously and continually to give voice to poison the minds of the electorate with lies and deception, and the destruction of the institutions and the disruption of governmental duties from their lawful execution,the ballots must deny any application for elected office of a known traitor, or person who has engaged in levying war against the United States. That is the law. We have to respect to the State's their judgement to keep a disqualified candidate for office from ever holding public office by not allowing them on the ballots for their own state. If anyone is found ineligible for office and is denied in one State of our nation. Then they therefore will no longer be eligible for office on All 50 States ballots. Score 49 ok, 1 not. Okay now that they no longer can appear on all ballots on election Day throughout the nation. It would also be a disqualifying offense to let such a candidate continue to remain on their respective States own ballots. What now is our standard for having people who lack the integrity to uphold the Constitution to have the ability to break that oath while still in service to the Constitution and seek to take that same oath now once broken once again, that doesn't make constitutional sense.

[@ladybug5859]

Malcolm Nance is an amazing man and probably the most knowledgeable on this topic among many others. I like how he analyzed the nuclear threat but I will add one thing that I heard a retired general say which was the following: If Putin released a nuclear bomb on Ukraine, there would be literally blowback all the way to Moscow because that's how the wind travels. There would also be literal blow back into Poland and hence NATO would be invoked because that would be an attack on a NATO member. SO it is absolutely impossible for him to do it without these two very deleterious things occurring-- one being the destruction of his own people in their own country and the other resulting in an attack on Poland which finally brings in NATO which has been built up on the border over this last year. To me this was the most concise and clear analysis of the situation because it's simple fact. In America we are so isolated that we forget that European countries all border each other and anything that happens in one country will affect another country, especially something such as nuclear fallout which travels in the air and on the Wind and knows no borders. IN contrast, of course America could drop a bomb with NO physical effect on its own people.

Watched several recent videos on UFOs. Seems every time a Russian or US nuclear silo opens its doors, UFOs show up and disrupt the power.

Someone much smarter than this planet might interfere with Putin's plans.
