Why is Donald Trump still attractive to voters even as he's echoing Adolf Hitler? @esglaude says it reflects a "deep illiberal tradition in the United States...I never thought I would see a Trump in my lifetime...This is damn familiar to me if that makes sense."

Trump鈥檚 attractive to pollsters who depend on close contests. Sad. In 2016 Trump had 90% of Republican voters. Today 1/2 remain. Trump LOST 1/2 of his support. Loser Magats think his sweaty desperation is courage. 1/2 the GOP went Silent But Deadly to Trump. #TrumpsFraidy

It's not that weird.Some people are more attracted to that kind of person.ALL people can do genocide. Some are just EASIER to convince like MAGA people BUT look at our side.What are our Dem leaders do? They're SUPPORTING,AIDING & ABETTING war crimes,crimes against humanity...1/

And they are DEMOCRATS. It was pretty easy for them too. The ONLY difference is the perceived "enemy". MAGA people can attack their neighbors in a blink. Democrats apparently need more distance, another color, another religion, more "foreign"... to do it. 2/

MAGA is also more "honest" in a way. They just say " we don't care, we like Hitler, why not" Our leaders, LIE & PRETEND they aren't doing what they are doing. Probably because they know it's all wrong. Israel BTW is also putting some Nazi actions into practice. 3/

It's this idea that Hitler,the Germans, Nazis & the Holocaust are so unique that lead us too the same shit. It's NOT. It's ALL of us. We are that.We are capable of that. We see that right now. BUT a lot people also say " ENOUGH, SHAME, GET OUT". That's our base, activists,youth4/

Nobody wants to listen to them. But it's right now, thank god, a huge chunk, Not just youth, but also Ind, Democrats, Even men ,all over the country. It's sad that we have a 2-party system so the consequence will be Horrendous for this country. But that's not on them. 5/

BTW everybody thinks that it will be so much worse for the world when the US is gone but you know what. Who says that? The world existed long BEFORE the US came to be. When the Roman Empire fell I don't remember many tears. Every end IS a new beginning. 6/x

Because white supremacy still holds sway in significant segments of America, especially as the population browns.

He is especially attractive. Him, Natenyahu and this Noric guy are competing to be the reincarnation of Hitler.
