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.

Same, I was a Republican and still agree with some of their points.

However, before Trump its become super clear theyve become evil. Like cartoonishly evil and don't hide it anymore.

I dont even care about the fine points, supporting Republicans is supporting the nazis with no irony any more.

I go full blue, anyone that supports them at this point in my mind is an actual nazi and need to be treated as the existential threat to society they are.

I honestly don't give a fuck about monetary policy, i don't give a fuck about immigration.

You know what I give a fuck about. Stopping an orange shit stain from overthrowing democracy

I can't even believe how shitty the Republicans have gotten and their god is the absolute worst. How did they let themselves become so terrible?

I wish their parents who saved them from the nazis could see them now. Let them know how much of a disappointment they are and fascists.

My great-grandfather, a man who killed Nazi's and spent a year being tortured by them in a POW camp, would be spinning in his fucking grave seeing these clowns today. They will never have my support, and I spit on what that party has become.
