How Now, the "Political Revolution"?
#3
Just a reminder. Read it and weep:

Dr. Lawrence Britt has examined the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes. Britt found 14 defining characteristics common to each:

Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - "Make America Great Again!"

Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Donald's open sanctioning of torture

Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - Muslims or Mexicans take your pick.

Supremacy of the Military - N/A

Rampant Sexism - Donald's sexism is a matter of public record

Controlled Mass Media - Donald is advocating being able to sue any media outlet that writes something bad about him.

Obsession with National Security - Donald has played the terrorism card over and over again.

Religion and Government are Intertwined - Donald frequently questions the faith of his opponents and has even had a fight with the Pope over faith.

Corporate Power is Protected - One look at Donald's economic plans will show you that.

Labor Power is Suppressed - Donald favors taking down the unions.

Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - In fairness Donald shows a lot of disdain these are just among them

Obsession with Crime and Punishment - A major part of his campaign

Rampant Cronyism and Corruption - N/A

Fraudulent Elections - Donald hasn't directly been involved but his party is frequently responsible for fraudulent elections and stealing voter's rights.
