I remember all those times when the Jews protested Gestapo Agents out to eat with their families and when German comedians called Adolph an orangutan and made fun of Eva Braun. Yep, fascism!
And keep striking and keep hitting......and then it begins to feel good to them...and then they begin to love the high they get from it.
Ultimately, they begin to LIVE for the pummelings and tell you that it's for your own good.
"Trust me", they say, as you bleed. Then they move on to the next one......
Welcome to 21st century America!

During the Obama years, Democrat left posters on boards such as this one would periodically antagonize their conservative adversaries by saying, 'You just don't like being under our thumb, do you?' as if that was an expectation that we were wrong to resent, that it was appropriate for them to expect, and that it was time that we accepted that this was our destiny to submit to.
I will never forget that. That is who these people are. It is what they do.
The American Democrat left is clearly at its core socialist, blending some of the worst elements of Marxism and fascism, both of which are fundamentally just different flavors of socialism. We really saw that come into the open and out of the closet during the Obama years, especially during his second term, when the kimono was not just opened, but pretty much taken completely off. They were not in a position to completely cast off the accountability that comes from our elections or our constitution during this time, but they sure made it clear that they wanted to and that they expected "Progress" to move increasingly in this direction.
Then we had an election and it did not go their way.
In case anyone has any lingering questions about the Democrat left's commitment to democracy here in this country, the attempted coup by the media and the uncivil and anti-social tactics of the "resistance" by both elected and unelected members of the Democrat left clearly demonstrate that this commitment only exists when they get their own way.

Republicans were in charge during Obama. He was at there mercy in his last years.
Trump will show what he s made of when the Republicans are toppled during his term.

What did Obama do to make everyone so angry in your opinion? Was it because he lighted the White House rainbow on June 26, 2015 to celebrate the same-sex marriage decision? Was it the transgender bathroom directive? Conservatives throw around buzzwords like socialism, marxism, etc to describe Obama but are rarely able to legitimately describe why they dislike him so much without diving into conspiracies.
Also, is it possible, even if you don't agree with everything Obama did or stood for, that some of the progress that happened under his administration was for the better? There seems to be this mindset today that everything Obama did needs to be undone just because Obama did it, regardless of whether it was positive or negative.
Democrats new religious voting base is Muslims, so I think you've got Sharia Law covered. While I puke at the thought of either religion having a say in government, Dems have no room for accusations now. You've adopted a Muslim voting base and joined the club.
Fascism: Historically, it means group (usually ethnic or national) supremacy, contempt for democracy, and glorifying strong-man leadership styles. Politics of disposability, strong demogoguic approach. Elevates emotionalism over intellectualism. However this is too narrow.
1. Fascism starts with a language of brutality, one that legitimizes dehumanization and if taken far enough, hatred and violence. It also undermines the possibility of a free press.
2. Policies that play to and promote enormous inequities (wealth and/or power).
3. Policies that aim hatred of “the other” from a large segment of society.
4. Promotion of “law”, “order”, and “discipline” to the point of legitimizing police brutality. Punishment and violence becomes the only organizing principle of a “functioning society”.
5. Stigmatizing the distastefully different in some way (the poor, the “inferior”, “weak”, etc.) can lead to criminalizing those traits.
6. “Are we fascist now?” is not the actual question. The actual question is “How far down the road are we to rendering ineffectual the institutions that protect republics, democracy, etc. and basic civil liberties?”. Attacks on public education, the press, the rule of law (even culturally, if not legally) are a warning sign.
7. Point 6 itself, can’t be answered without first answering “What institutions and cultural attitudes that make democracy (or ‘republic’ if you prefer) possible?”
8. “Do we have concentration camps now (not even death camps)?” is also the wrong question. The right question is “What condition allow those camps to come about in the first place?”.
9. Demogogues accelerate fascism’s rise.
10. Dog-eat-dog, merciless competition rooted in self-interest (or the interest of one’s close group).

It is moving away from the socialist government with fascist overtones that Obama tried to champion thru lies, deceit, weaponizing federal agencies, bypassing the people's representatives, suspending the law to favor politically elite in collusion with the media. The abandonment of the people by the mainstream media is the absolute validation of the prelude to a fascist state.
If that does not convince you, the chilling words spoken by one democrat elitist should, especially the non response by the media and democrat party members. "we have to pass it to find out what is in it".
the Obama defends putin in a debate, pulls back on a promise to Poland to provided defensive missles just to please putin. the when putin invades crimea, Obama sends the defenders blankets and food. If Obama was not colluding with Putin to weaken and divide the country no one ever was. Apparently Obama admired Putin and his ideology enough to whisper sweet nothings in Medvedev's ear for Putin.

Reason: sp
I no longer call the GOP the Republican Party. I call them the Trump-Fascist Party.
If we apply the political science definition of Fascism, Trump meets nearly all of the criteria: excessive nationalism, populism, jingoism, scapegoating immigrants and minorities, constant lying, war on the media, love of the military and the police, and his preference for dictators and disdain for western European democracy.
By all objective standards Trump is a Fascist, although his powers are constrained (thankfully) by the Constitution. If the Trump-Fascists gain full control of Congress and the Supreme Court, we may see the Constitution twisted, strained and contorted in new ways to accommodate the Trump-Fascist agenda.

Its done as Trump promised the racist in his base to conduct a modern day lynching of Obama by undoing his legacy. To erase him from the books.
Obama also humiliated Trump for his ridiculous birther campaign during one of those press dinners....that Trump refuses to attend during his term.
He is so weak and fearful of exposure.
Of course he attacks late nite comedians.
