During World War II, fascists and Nazis were trying to take over the world and Americans marshaled all our efforts to push them back. Today, Americans are deciding whether or not to give them a second term.

That’s what they often say about women when we express ourselves passionately. We’re “unhinged.”

We didn't really though, FDR went against public sentiment by fighting the Nazis, the majority of Americans in polls were in favor of not interfering with the Nazis

That wasn’t true after Pearl Harbor. At that point Americans supported us getting into the war.

Sigh! At those Dem late night parties, they really serve some potent drink of hysteria and alarmism.

I wish it was that. It’s actually a clear eyed, sober appraisal of an existential threat to our democracy.

You tap into something very important here. Any system that can lead to fascism is broken by design. However incredibly important democracy is, we need a democracy that doesn't require saving from destruction every four years, lest we remain stuck treading water.
