    Trump's visit to Madison Square Garden brings to mind the rallies held by Father Coughlan in the 1930s. Twenty thousand attendees, every one a Nazi.

    According to Academics, and TDL, trump is not a Fascist, just an 'Aspirational' one.

    He is not officially a Fascist until he actually institutes the extreme authoritarian things he has been promising for years.

    Unrestricted by academic doctrine, I tend to agree with General Milley that trump, MAGA and the Heritage Foundation, are all "Fascist to the Core!"

    I suggest those using the F word go beyond the dictionary simple version and have a read on the Wikipedia page. There quite a lot to read but the only thing that comes close in our modern world is the climate change/green movement.
    At its core it’s anti communist/socialist but just like those it demands utter allegiance to the state and denies individualism.
    Any real authoritarian regime in western society is going to come from a green based govt, one that will dictate your means of travel, when you will travel and exclude you from society if you don’t cooperate with that. And that will come pretty soon if we keep playing the left vs right game and don’t see that both sides are in that game.
    Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket - Eric Hoffer

    I never realised how closely connected Trump was to pro wrestling, that explains a lot in my mind to how he approaches campaigning, and how devoted so many of his supporters are.

    Hopefully there's about as much substance behind what he's been saying as there is in your average pro wrestling match.

    How bad does politics as a profession have to get before it breaks down all together, I wonder?

    Heh - I remember the Battle of the Billionaires - and the Hair vs Hair stipulation.

    His knowledge of Boxing and of MMA as well was pretty impressive - the guy was on-point with a lot of his history.

    So the video is interesting - the opening line - He talks about removing the Fascists (this is assuming that these quotes are accurate, not attributed, in full and not omitting key context) - Bit of a Bold move for a Fascist to remove Fascists - almost like the video refutes its own premise...

    As for the first part - And by ensuring that his own Liberty and Freedom is protected, he ensures that others Liberty and Freedom is protected.

    You are making a very basic mistake in that you are assuming Trump means what he says.

    As for the first part - his own liberty and freedom will have no bearing on anybody else's. He says he wants to lock up half the country.

    Can you explain plese Demon Lord. What are the rules and guidelines of being a cult follower as so you clearly are.

    Is there an inititation process to join your cult ? Do you have to get a 'Donald Trump' tattoo somewhere on your body or, do just have to pay some money and promise that you'll tell anything you hear that is anti common sense and you'll

    be as stupid as you already sound, just to confirm you're now a lifetime member of your cult. The Donald, 'Bone Spurs' Gang. You must be proud of the fat weakling.

    Keep going, I'm enjoying this. Putin loves you too.

    Now what an interesting comment - see, when I point out something that when listened to in context is clearly hyperbole and a joke - I get all manner of Flak, yet when I point out the obvious self-refutung statement - suddenly Trump does not mean what he says.

    How many times have you, yourself, Pritch critiqued me for this? Only to pull it out when convenient....

    Lock up half the country? I'd like the direct quote that states half the country.

    Methinks you quoted the wrong post.

    Ah Putin. Invaded the Donbas under Obama.
    Invaded the rest of Ukraine under Biden.

    Yet, somehow did nothing whilst Trump was in office and somehow Trump was his puppet...

    For one who is accusing others of Cult like thinking, I cannot imagine the mental gymnastics required to make that make sense.

    He continually calls Kamala a Socialist / Communist / Fascist.... he has no idea, they are just trigger words, to get reactions from the MAGAts.

    Fascist is definitely a trigger word for TDL.
