So it looks like Trump has read the fascist playbook or something. I’m not surprised. I am concerned.

Edit: After thinking about it, I guess I am surprised that he can read.

    The problem is “for the moment to preserve American democracy and freedom” winds up being every election, unless a genuine leftward push is made at some point down the line.

    If that leftward push never happens, every election is a choice between temporarily halting fascism, and allowing fascism to metastasize.

      The “left” does not control enough of the government to make a serious leftward push. All they can currently manage is halting the advance.
