Part 1 (refers to the Wikipedia excerpt in Part 2)
The following elaborates upon the previous post in discussing the intellectual relationship between Guénon and Evola that informs both Steve Bannon and the Russian Aleksander Dugin, and thus that informs and steers Agent Trump's curious actions. Trump is not merely trying to make Russia great again, but he and President Bannon are following a long intellectual agenda. Once distilled from all the seeming internal contradictions, the actual Hidden Hand agenda can easily be seen as 'traditionalist' monarchism. Evola claimed to be a Sicilian baron, but as well, at the center of his philosophy was a desire to return to a pure hierarchical caste system, as espoused by such as Plato. Thus a rejection of 'Modernism' and its accouterments such as Democracy. One can completely ignore the conflicting claims of esoteric Masonic associations or the dismissals of the same. It is the common and consistent core thread that matters.
Ironically, one might argue that Trump is playing Bannon, in that Trump might understand the real hidden agenda much better than Bannon, with the latter's blue-collar mindset. Contrary to Trump's long term rhetoric, his long term actions are that of an elitist. He is unhappy with being seen as a commoner and demands the unconditional respect and love that he believes he was born to. His populism is merely a cynical tool as it was for Julius Caesar. His latest twit rant against the highest echelons of the Justice Department, including his AG, Jeffery Beauregard Sessions, over the growing massive revelations of his and his family's corrupt financial connections to Russia demonstrate the danger the Republic is in. He and Bannon are not here to play by the rules of Hoyle. And now we see the intellectual affinities.
Similarly, and part of a piece are my discussions, on other threads, of the Trojan Horse nature of radical, Randian libertarianism, a golden shower gift from the monarchists of the Mont Pelerin Society and the Traditionalist Koch brothers.
The real goal is to re-impose an Absolute State that demolishes the Individualism that it pays lip service to. The sons of the last generation's Nazi fighters are made to happily support what their fathers fought against.
And also part of a piece is the decades long deployment of the weaponized evangelical movement to instill a love for Russia among the American brown shirts. Ignore the massive corruption, they have great Christian Family Values. Besides, the amount of personal wealth is a respective measure of how much God loves you. Ironic, though, is the global harmonization of the Mother Church with all its prior (fake) schisms, and the simultaneous promotion of secular Nationalism. Let's remember that Julius Caesar's populist dictatorship soon gave way to the 'global' (the world as they knew it) synthesis of the Imperium.
We also see the intellectual coherence in Ivana Trump's claim that Trump kept Mein Kampf next to his bed.
