According to Trump’s head of Homeland Security, we, the American people, have two choices: stay silent against ICE agents’ grossly illegal and sometimes lethal violence against innocent people, or face “more bloodshed.”

This is what fascism looks like.

Yet, too many Americans are children or grandchildren of our brave ancestors who risked (or gave) their lives to defeat Hitler. I’m betting against Trump and the despicable people he’s nominated to top positions in his administration.

Fascism Has Come to America–Or Has It?

The most significant mistake Trump’s making currently seems to be a blend of his indifference to the wellbeing of our people and his broadly discredited, though constantly repeated claim that the 2020 election was rigged against him.

Each day, more U.S. voters are waking up to the facts that they’re unhappy and that this country is failing, big.

There’s a limit to their patience.

Americans Aren’t Happy Right Now

It’s hard to disagree with most of this.

That said, how long the damage will last is an open question.  If Trump can be removed from office and then totally discredited with criminal prosecution, there is a reasonable chance that a) congressional Republicans will try to pretend none of this ever happened, b) a large percentage of his base will recant their loyalty, and c) virtually everyone around the globe will breathe a huge sigh of relief and let the world move on.
