#DonaldTrump Comes Out In Favor Of #Prison #Rape.

Least surprising endorsement ever. One of the planks of Trump’s campaign was #bashing #trans #people. And he wasted no time delivering on his #vow to inflict #maximum #harm on #minorities.

On the blog where he explains these ideas, Haywood refers to himself as “#maximum #leader.”

In October 2022, Haywood appeared on a podcast with with former Trump official and “Flight 93” essay #Michael #Anton and others for a discussion about #caesarism
— the idea that a strongman is needed to solve America’s problems.

After referring to an unspecified “secret event” that brought the group together, Haywood said that he “wholeheartedly” endorsed “#national #divorce” as a solution to the country’s problems.

Since selling his shampoo manufacturing firm in September 2020, Haywood has mobilized. His nonprofit, the
"Howdy Doody Good Times Foundation", began to contribute to the Claremont Institute.

Howdy Doody has contributed money to SACR as well. Over the following year, a chapter in Dallas, Texas, and three in Idaho were founded.

Haywood has said that additional chapters exist; Williams put the total number at beneath one dozen.

Among the emails obtained by TPM are ones that show the organization’s reach.

In one January 2023 exchange, Haywood cc’ed a group of people while asking for a board meeting to discuss SACR finances.
The men on the exchange do not appear to be down on their luck.

#Fischer, a venture capitalist who leads the group’s Dallas chapter, graduated from Harvard Law. Fischer has described leading a private equity career investing in apartment complexes distressed after the 2008 financial crisis.

Also cc-ed was #Williams, the Claremont president. Williams confirmed his involvement in the group on Friday on Twitter, writing, “may 1,000 chapters bloom and flourish.”

Claremont came into national consciousness in 2021 because it was where Trump co-defendant and co-conspirator #John #Eastman, the attorney who played a key role in the 2020 election subversion effort, works as a senior fellow.

Coda: I should have clarified, Q is the #maximum possible #watchability.

Films are, of course, free to #undershoot this mark, and frequently do.
