If Trump wins then that's it, for the world, really. The US will convert to a theocratic dictatorship, ruled by religious doomsday nuts with nukes. Trump is, as usual, the puppet of Putin, so do expect the US not only to withdraw from Europe, I fully expect him to actively help Russia to conquer more parts of Europe than the USSR ever had.

Am I overthinking and overstating things? Most of it is based off Trump's words and actions, the Republican 2025 documents, and well... Maybe a lot of pure cynicism as well, as I've seen humanities behaviorfall of a cliff

Which is exactly why it's so important that we ensure Democrats win a majority in both chambers of Congress (if we presume Trump will win, which I don't). It won't stop Trump from doing damage, but it will slow him down and prevent at least some of it.

There's lots at stake, and lots of downballot races deserve our attention.
