When fascism comes to the US, it will be fronting a TV show and calling everyone 'losers'

The PPP poll of South Carolinian Republicans: http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/2015/PPP_Release_SC_21616.pdf

Would you support or oppose banning Muslims from entering the United States?
Support: Trump supporters 80%, supporters of other Republican candidates 29-67%

Would you support or oppose banning homosexuals from entering the United States?
Support: Trump 31%, others 7-17%

Would you support or oppose shutting down mosques in the United States?
Support: Trump 40%, others 11-32%

Would you support or oppose creating a national database of Muslims in the United States?
Support: Trump 62%, others 21-47%

Do you think the religion of Islam should be legal or illegal in the United States?
Illegal: Trump 33%, others 11-27%

Looking back, do you support or oppose the policy of Japanese Internment during World War II?
Support: Trump 32%, others 11-23%

Do you support or oppose the Confederate flag hanging on the capital grounds?
Support: Trump 70%, others 32-62%

Are you glad that the North won the Civil War, or do you wish that the South had won?

In general do you think that whites are a superior race, or not?
Superior: Trump 16%, others 1-9%

That's comparing his supporters with Republicans. Extra bit of bad news: one group was more white supremacist than Trump voters: Republican primary voters under 45. 21% of them said whites are a superior race, compared to 5% for 46-65, and 9% for over 65. The Republicans are getting more racist (or more open about it).

1. Well said. But fascism will also pretend to be 'populist' by supporting Social Security,

building walls and imposing tariffs. Earlier generations of fascists did the same. It helps get into power - at which point all bets are off.
