    Did we though? There was a whole lot of legally cheating (gerrymandering, voter suppression, etc.) and maybe some not so legal cheating as well by his election and judge minions.

      It doesn’t really matter imo, fascism is not something that necessarily gets voted in or out of power. Its a symptom of and reaction to systemic failures that attempts to preserve capitalism by whatever means necessary. It isn’t something brought about by individuals or imposed upon the public.

        This old canard. God forbid problems have any other causes. Loop it all back to capitalism, like evangelicals seeing Satan everywhere.

        Name one other person that could do the things trump is doing. No one is that ballsy, has that much fan base, or is in bed with Putin the way he is.

          If it was not Trump someone else would take the mantle because the system needs a person like him to preserve it. I could not name someone because Trump exists and took that position so that no one else had to.
