    Many never read a book again after high school. Another round never read a book again after college. For those that read or even consume history documentaries will understand Fascism came to power in various countries through their democracies and then they were dismantled after the fact. Many imagine it was pew pew pew early on that occurs. In some cases yes.

    Of the many cases last century, there was this one “stupid little corporal” the ruling elite thought they could use and opened the door for him early on. However he legally came to power as far as the system was concerned. The ruling Elite thought they would dispose of him once he served their needs.

    Eventually he disposed of this elite that didn’t take him seriously, then it was on to the rest of the world to think he was a farcical nut with a God complex they could ignore.

    Then it became there isn’t any use in calling him a nut, because he is a power and we have to recognize that as the Europe then the world descended further into another round of darkness.

    This is not the only example of where those that know no bounds push and topple these systems that were constructed by “gentlemen” of a older time expecting honor and proper decorum to still be a part of the checks and balances. The little German above along with the Italian and Japanese ones did not push their systems legally early on as much as we see in the US today.

    Today honor and decorum left the scene long ago so it will be interesting if sleepy and hair sniffing Joe loses to the business fraud, tax evading, alleged rapist, and coup inspiring white supremacist con man where things will go next time around. At the very least environmental safe guards and agencies will be the first to go. The rest will be much more interesting…
