Well instead of dealing with their fascist problem after WWII, they decided to repress (and sometimes kill) the most reliable antifascists - the leftists.

That said some countries that objectively did purge their fasists seem to still have that problem today. Perhaps the theory that capitalism creates fascism as it declines predicts this.

Turns out conservatives were just waiting for one evil and horrible enough all along.

And the Democrats... Jesus Christ are they useless. They roll over at the very sound of a stiff breeze.

Why would they deal with racists? USA as a whole never stopped being racist.

I'd call America a nation of bitches, but bitches have a backbone.

The USA is distracted with treats. It's economy is the imperial core of the planet. That fact affords Trump some time before the masses realize what's going on.

Remember that the Nazis made the economy temporarily better for the in-group. They actually allowed socialist benefits for the German workforce before clamping down on that during WWII.

Trump isn't making the economy better for anyone though. He's screwing everyone over, and channeling that hate towards anything else but him and his base.

Just as we've seen with Charlie Kirk's murder and Candace Owen's conspiracy theory to blame it all on Israel, the Right can fracture very easily. I don't think this Admin will make it to the height of the Nazis. Their own incompetence and marriage to the rich will sew the seeds of their demise. Of course, anti-fascists throwing wrenches in things doesn't hurt either.
