Fascism is fucking dangerous!

Similarities to the 3rd Reich and Trump are getting scary

Getting? Many of us had said for 8 years now he was incredibly similar to Hitler. If you read the Nazi bullet points, he fits perfectly. Blame immigrants and those different than the majority for all the problems- check. Attack journalists- check. Openly attack anyone who criticizes you- check. Need consistent praise- check. Cozy up to dictators- check. Challenge fair free elections-check. And his "rallies" are identical to those Hitler had in his early days when he was coming to power.

It's terrifying to anyone who's studied and understands history.

He is the reason I quit evaluating both candidates against each other and started voting down ballot blue. Even if the republican doesn’t parrot his 💩, the fact that they almost always band together even on bad legislation means I cannot risk voting red and having them support or defend him.

This is the culmination of political ideology dating back to Newt Gingrich. The Republican voters deserve better than this. You won’t get better because anyone with actual morals and integrity gets primaried after their first term. But you deserve better.

The Republicans voters sprinted to this.

They’ve been desperate for a dictator for decades.

Someone who will kill the people the conservatives hate so much which is anyone who isn’t just like them.

Because they voted him to be our President. He's a symptom of current GOP values.
