Yet Americans may soon bring him to power.

The champagne merchants in Moscow are ready.

Consider the fools that think Trump 2.0 would be the same as Trump 1.0.

Fascism, the corporate State. 
 

“Italian Fascism involved a corporatist political system in which the economy was collectively managed by employers, workers and state officials by formal mechanisms at the national level.”

Ex-Trump aides emerge to back Kelly’s harsh warnings

 

'More than a dozen former Trump administration officials on Friday came out in support of former chief of staff John Kelly, who went on the record this week to say the former president fits the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator and has no concept of the Constitution.

The letter was signed by Trump administration officials, including Kevin Carroll, former senior counselor to Kelly; former deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews; former assistant secretary of homeland security Elizabeth Neumann; former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci; former chief of staff at the Dept. of Homeland Security Miles Taylor; former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham; former press secretary to the vice president Alyssa Farah Griffin; and former national security adviser to vice president Pence, Olivia Troye.'

It's a ridiculous poll, IMO
Kelly left the WH in Jan 2019 and completely forgot all about this until 2 weeks before the election. Got it :giggle:

Maybe the "Trump-is-Hitler" thing could work if Trump were unknown. But.... He's been famous for 5 decades. Beloved by US elites. The star of a hit NBC prime-time show. Oprah suggested he should run for President. Hung out with rappers and billionaires. The Clintons went to his wedding.

And -- just 3 years ago! - he was President for 4 years and nobody except MSNBC viewers remembers death camps, wars of conquest or other Hitlerian behavior. And it's been all tried before, including this same John Kelly crap. Has the stench of desperation.

Image below shows former President Bill Clinton and former First Lady and NY Senator Hillary Clinton celebrate the wedding of German dictator Adolf Hitler to long-time girlfriend Eva Braun.

The BS that works among US media elites is regarded as too blatantly stupid by the general public.

I love that photo!  During happy times they were all friends.  Even Hillary.

 

Who would of thought?

 It's ironic that those who are the most likely to call someone else a "Fascist" are also more likely to embrace that exact totalitarianism that Fascism extols.  Coincidence?  Nope. The primary problem with people like this is they are dumber than a box of hammers, although they think they are smart.  Clever?  Maybe.  Intelligent?  No so much. Therefore their single most effective line of defense is ridicule and spewing the exact hatred they claim that those who are "haters" spew.  Why?  Well, when you run out of word-salad you just devolve to name calling.

:angry: "You're a Fascist!!!"

:biggrin: Try looking in a mirror.

 

"Fascism" in these discussions is being used as an adolescent smear word. You're right. The simians attempting a type of political discourse with it can't quite bring themselves to come out and hurl the "Nazi" epithet, because that would mean to be dismissed as an unserious person, a hyperbole filled hysteric. So they use Hitler and Fascism. Of course Europe and America were not only tightly allied to "Fascist" governments throughout the Cold War but, as you say, contain elements of Fascism within their very own core ideology.

Yep - and Putin's Ruskie satellites are beaming propaganda into the third-eye of Blue State voters and twisting their minds to vote from Trump.  And the DPRK's Kim is sending Trump instructions to help Putin win the war in Ukraine so that he can built Trump Towers in Kiev and Pyongyang.  Trump is Hitler!!!  Grrrrr!
