The MAGA people on 3/14/21 (& 1/6) in a small insignificant way remind me of Robert Heinrich Wagner.

Yes a Nazi.

This one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Heinrich_Wagner

"At the end of the war, Wagner hid out until 29 July 1945 when he was arrested in Stuttgart by American forces, who handed him over to the French. Wagner was brought to trial from 23 April to 3 May 1946, convicted and sentenced to death by the Permanent Military Tribunal in Strasbourg. The sentence was carried out by firing squad on 14 August 1946."

"Wagner remained an incorrigible Nazi to the end, as his last words before the execution show: "Long live Greater Germany, long live Adolf Hitler, long live National Socialism.""

No the MAGATs did not reach, in even the smallest of ways, the heights of depravity that the real Nazis did (I hope no group ever gets close again) but their weird love of Trump even now is troubling. Those people in photos at the weird scam dog charity at Maga Hades are still all up in trump worship, you can tell by their wide-eyed smiling jackass faces. The January 6th nutcases have in some cases felt betrayed by trump but you know, you know, you know, they are still MAGA.

I could see them mumbling "Make America Great, long live Donald J Trump, long live MAGA."...as their credit card is declined for bail or an Uber/Lyft/real taxi from jail.

We came whisker close to a real shitstorm of real life weaponized White Supremacy, bordering or just becoming Fascism, if November would have gone the other way.

I guess watching "Operation Finale" got me wondering how and why people can just keep on keeping on being a Nazi...or small weak (thank goodness) facsimiles.

Here is the real story (and good review of "Operation Finale" ) of that turd Eichmann: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/true-story-operation-finale-180970153/
