not a perfect translation, but pretty good.

I would disagree with 1 and 3, but I could just be over thinking.
A strong leader can solve all the problems- by developing teamwork, collaboration and understanding, and inspiring others to address these issues.
“Real” citizens are those with citizenship. Doesn’t mean residents or illegal residents aren’t people or important, just not citizens.
Unfortunately for both we know what fascists actually do.
With #1, strong leader probably means the strong-handed over-enforcing leader who’s tough on crime to solve problems. In your example I agree, but I’d also argue the leader is guiding society in that case and it takes everyone to solve problems.
With #3, I think it’s referring to a subset of actual citizens who are treated like “real” citizens over other citizens. Whether it’s by race, class, religion, etc. Some minority of the population is made the boogeyman.

yeah they don’t line up exactly, but I think each one is still applicable to other points.
Is Foxworthy still a Trumper?
no idea, the redneck joke phrasing just came to mind as I was reading.
I could only read this in Jeff Foxworthy’s voice, which made it…. weird.
He was one of the best writers ever too 😥
Pretty factual.
