America isn’t the way it is because he’s president. He’s president because America is the way it is.

Far too many people (particularly Democrats and progressives) insist on believing that it's all Trump. That as soon as he's gone, everything will go back to "normal". They don't understand that fascism IS the new normal, and it's only going to get worse.

Unless we stop it.

@Quasit I believe Vance is even worse. Vance went to Germany and tried to nudge our govt into working with our neo-Nazi party, and after that met with the leader of said neo-Nazi party. It's surreal witnessing one of the countries that liberated us from Nazis trying to impose Nazi rule upon us a century later. Makes me feel a bit like the Middle East must have felt when the US installed puppet regimes in the later half of the 20th century to secure the oil flow.
