Is this the American version of Fascism? German Fascism was rigid, stoic and monolithic. American Fascism? Goofy!

They are looking for a leader to direct them. Trump is a coward but others aren't. Steve Bannon is smart and the season is ripe for directing these "almost fascist". Look for the new leaders they are on the horizon. Tucker Carlson is the kind of mouthpiece they need. He is on 9pm every night.

6. Ok....

History is a teacher. It's lessons are hard and often cruel. 47% of this country was just fine with a fascist after 8 years of progress and pragmatism. Do you think they vanish? No they wait. I'm not frightened by them. They are my neighbors, my coworkers, hell some are even family BUT I know they are there. We must now become more vigilant not laugh away the game show host.
