Trump will generate genuine terror.
President "I am your retribution" Trump has a familiar ring to it. Black shirt or brown? He envied Bolsonaro, Duterte, Xi, Putin style strongman authoritarianism.
That authoritarian approach appeals to the orange cult that is evangelically willing to 'eradicate' certain segments of the US population, aka scapegoating.
Being one generation removed from a Viennese anti-Nazi street fighting family, the similarity to the process of shunning and legislating against specific segments of society is concerning.
It wasn't just Jews from my families neighborhood that were first shunned, then legislated against, then killed. Everybody on this board knows well how the Hitler and his thugs were welcomed, with open arms, into Austria. A shameful blot on Austria and now, the US.
