If you haven't already, visit a Holocaust Museum (or do some real research) and see how the Nazis used fear, lies and propaganda to convince Germans that their lives were somehow less because of their Jewish neighbors. See how they sowed mistrust and hatred, and how Hitler and his followers perverted religion and righteousness. Take that new understanding of how an insecure but charismatic sociopath can sway fearful individuals and even whole citizenries. (We know how that worked out for Jews but how did it work out for Germans, Europeans, Americans, Japanese?) Trump admires authoritarians because he has a bottomless need for power and being perceived as great. Weak-minded and ignorant of American and World affairs despite his cancerous bluster, he has been swayed by the likes of Steve Bannon, Steven Miller, Putin and Erdoğan, and to some degree Kim Jong-Un. Will the world blow up tomorrow if Trump is not removed or is reelected? No, probably not tomorrow; however, Hitler became Chancellor of Germany in 1933 and in 1941 settled on the "Final Solution" that led to mass extermination (what a euphemism) of millions. The U.S. of course sat this out until Pearl Harbor. We as a nation turned our backs on the world (like Trump wants us to do) thinking it wasn't our fight. Our history is littered with gleeful injustice, war and pain, static among the variables of time. Why are we walking a path so much like the Nazis-influenced Germans? Is it to elect Republican judges, inflict pain on those with whom we don't agree, take up God's mantle (so we think) of protecting unborn life while we kill, maim and abuse women and pass judgement at all who differ? If you sincerely believe in a Higher Power I doubt that the HP wants YOU making these judgements. Hate unchecked grows and spreads.
It took Hitler 8/9 years to (begin) enact his final solution, the extermination of an entire people. What will the Untethered States of America be like in 8/9 years. My prediction: an unrecognizable experiment in failed self-rule. Wake Up!
