        When she is willingly taking money from fascist governments and boasting that she is receiving endorsements from war criminals and people that Democrats themselves labeled as fascist, they are fascist.

              Then I must conclude you’re not using a reasonable definition of fascism.

              Fascism is characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy and forcible suppression of opposition, all things which Trump has very explicitly stood for. He’s basically said he’s gonna kill off his political opponents, and that it’s gonna be legal and there’s not gonna be any repercussions for him.

              I’d like for you to make a case like that against literally each and every single president of the US. You genuinely believe Jimmy Carter was striving to be a dictator?

                Much of the conflict within the Middle East was started by Jimmy Carter.

                And DOD directive 5240.01 updated Sept 27, 2024 is already laying the groundwork, under Biden, to allow US military to assist in addressing descent in the US up to and including harm or death. The things that liberals say are going to happen under Trump are already laying the foundation to have it happen under Biden.

                  So your criteria for someone not being a fascist is not being involved in any military conflicts, at all?

                  Okay, so guess that means that pretty much all world leaders are fascists.

                  See what I meant with “not a reasonable definition of fascism”? The definition of any ideology might be a little fuzzy, but you’re definitely colouring over the lines.

                  The things that liberals say are going to happen under Trump are already laying the foundation to have it happen under Biden.

                  Such as having a dictator who can freely do whatever they want without consequences, while exploiting the country and it’s people and resources as much as they can (while actually being Putin’s bitch)?

                    It’s Biden’s team laying the groundwork for Trump to fulfill what he says he wants. But liberals will ignore that if it happens. Like they did when Trump was locking up kids while ignoring who built those cages for kids
