A Democratic Republic or Authoritarianism

Today it is clear we are living in a new normal. The current Senators, under the leadership of McConnell has demonstrated that one person can have a major impact on our form of government. There is no doubt that Authoritarianism is now, with no thanks to 51 Senators, a new form of governance, i.e. Trumpism.

IMO, Trumpism is akin to fascism, and a reader with an open mind and who has watched the behavior of Trump and McConnell will see much similarity to these 14 points:

We will have to see how big of a concern this is. There isn't a more authoritarian candidate running than Bloomberg. If the (D)'s quickly crush his campaign then I'll believe it.

Why don't you get an education, and learn how to write something more than your usual curmudgeonly act? We have never had a POTUS such as trump, who has more personality disorders than you have in your tool box.

My gosh but your hyperbole knows no bounds does it. I didn't hear you condemning obummer for his blatant disregard of the COTUS, and when Trump actually follows it you claim he's a dictator.

Grow up.

When Fascism is everywhere, it is nowhere. Again people like you connect people in power who do things you don't like with being fascist. You have no real idea what the word actually is, or what actual fascists would look like, but it lets you call Trump and his supporters Nazis without actually using that word.

Trump did nothing wrong other than win in 2016, and the fact that lying assholes like you can't admit that is why you are going to lose again in 2020.

I think that I can convince you that "Trumpism" is not fascism. You may not agree with my "facts" but here goes.
How many of the 14 signs of Fascism are not happening under a Trump presidency?

2. Trump has no control over human rights guaranteed in the Constitution, the courts protect them vigorously
3. There are no enemies or scapegoats, just democrats
4. A powerful military is a good thing, they are not used inside the US borders
5. There is no rampant sexism, women's rights are protected in the courts
6. Trump does not control the MSM, the MSM is 93% negative on Trump!!
7. National security is important, the democrats abused it with Operation Crossfire Hurricane
8. Religion and government are kept separate even using the courts if needed
9. Corporate power is challenged in court
10. Labor power is not suppressed, unions have the National Labor Relations Board
11. The "intellectuals" have the colleges to indoctrinate the kids unopposed
12. Trump signed the bipartisan criminal justice overhaul via 1st & 2nd step acts
13. Rampant cronyism and corruption are what Biden and Hunter did
14. The states handle elections, the elections are being made bullet-proof by having printed receipts

So even though democrats whine about Trump, it was under the Obama admin that the worst scandal in US history occurred when they used the intel agencies, the DOJ, and the FBI to illegally spy on Trump. Trump is protecting the US from politically abusive Federal agencies like Lois Lerner and the IRS, as well as NSA warrant-less surveillance and using contractors like Ed Snowden to spy on US citizens.

The Regressive Left is every bit as authoritarian as the Trumpian Right.

Why is bailing out the auto industry worse than bailing out corporate farms? Both parties try for large majorities. When did we nationalize the energy programs (whatever that means). How is Obama worse than Trump with the deficit?

Gee, denial on display. Maybe you might be able to go point by point on each of the 14 points and think as to how trump had used his rhetoric to win the nomination, and how his demagoguery - filled by lies, half-truths and character assassinations - fit nicely into many of the 14 points that you choose to mock.

This is not a thread about Bloomberg, it is about what has happened in the past three years.

You remember when 10,000 Mexican Citizens and 1 border agent was murdered by Mexican drug cartel, who was allowed by Eric(the racist) Holder to pass guns into their hands? When the congress put up a subpoena on Eric, the brown turd Oblummer used EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGES to block Eric from testifying? Eventually the murderer of 10s of thousands still hasn't face criminal charges of War crimes against Humanity.

Obama used executive privilege to shield Holder emails
