Mark A LemleyTrump claimed he would “root out” his enemies, referring specifically to “the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country” who “lie and cheat and steal on elections.” He says that undocumented immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country.” His opponents are "snowflakes . . . suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”
Let us be clear. Trump is a fascist who sounds more and more like Hitler with every passing day. He will destroy this country and everything we hold dear if we let him.
Steve Bellovin@marklemley I'm waiting for him to explain that Hitler was actually a very smart guy.
Matt Blaze@SteveBellovin @marklemley Next he will be denouncing "degenerate art".
Seriously, I don't know how much clearer these warnings can get.
@SteveBellovin @marklemley I'd imagine he was disappointed that Albert Speer wasn't available to design Trump Tower.
Norman Wilson@mattblaze @SteveBellovin @marklemley Not to mention elite formalism in music, not reflecting the proper ideology of American realism. A muddle instead of music.
Frank Bennett 🇯🇵@SteveBellovin @marklemley He hasn't done that already?
@fgbjr @marklemley I don't recall him praising Hitler, as opposed to other murderous thugs.
@SteveBellovin @marklemley "Hitler did a lot of good things" comes pretty close.

Jennifer@marklemley at least the media is finally starting to say this too. Not the NYT though.
@marklemley While electing him to another term as president would obviously be disastrous, his elevation of clearly fascist, xenophobic, racist rhetoric into mainstream political discourse does enormous damage by itself. It gives legitimacy and encouragement to fascists and racists, often with violent consequences.
Michael Gemar@mattblaze @marklemley Yep, *he’s* the one “poisoning the blood of the country”.
sxpert@mattblaze @marklemley problem, the other ones support an equally fascist government at the east end of the Mediterranean
