Lets face the facts now,

trump isn't a republican or a conservative , along with all the others who used to be republicans and conservatives. They are extremists fascists who now just manufacture what they want people to believe , then use propaganda to promote it as the truth. trump wants absolute power to choose who wins by false claims, and by using the courts , bypassing all the American people's votes making himself the decider in chief, or dictator. He'll soon be compromising and threatening judges, and justices, and electors to do as he says or he'll hurt you, or all of us.
He'll replace people to use the military and the FBI and CIA as his weapons against us, like he's done with DeJoy, Barr , and many others. His threats and actions to hurt this country are escalating now, while his followers in OUR Congress back him doing it. They are against OUR Democracy, with trump, and backing a government change where we no longer have control, they do. trump wants to bypass the American people and their votes, bypass Congress and the rule of law, and he wants to bypass the judicial branch so he can control the outcomes, or become the judge, jury, and executioner now. Graham is right, they'll never win another election as long as we have a Democracy, and that's what they're trying to steal from us now. trump is a treasonous traitor, and a serial liar and a criminal desperately trying to escape justice. We will see soon who wins this fight, and I'm betting we will win and save OUR Democracy.

They don't get to pretend otherwise now.

Trump IS who they are because he's the culmination of their policies and their agenda.

Conservatives and Republicans are extremists fascists who now (and for the last quarter century, at a minimum) just manufacture what they want people to believe , then use propaganda to promote it as the truth.

(fixed it for ya)

The ones who aren't have been rather feeble at denouncing, much less fighting, those who are. The fascists laid claim to those terms and won them nearly uncontested.

The others were the fascists' useful idiots. No need to let them off the hook.

Fox News, Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, voter suppression, fake scandals and conspiracies, appeals to white anger, xenophobia, etc. all were features of the Republican Party and Conservatives before Donald Trump. Without everything that came before him, he would have had no lane.

The reason why Trump has a cult following in the Republican Party and still had over 90% support after severe failures of leadership and character is because this is who they are, it simply was not as clear before.

That's why they love him. Not because he's saying anything new, but because he says what the cowardly Republicans only say behind closed doors.

Republicans are now fascists who have declared war on the USA. It's time for people to realize we are already at war to save this country.

Trump is the poster boy for the Republican party.

He is the result of the Republican party.
