rewriting the history of WWII right now. Hitler becomes the hero and Eisenhower the enemy.

Trump's bigotry and racism brought these vermin out of the dark and into the light. Trump truly is Adolph Hitler reincarnate.

Republicans' silence on this matter serves as tacit approval of their place within the republican party. They accept these people, and what they stand for, as part of their party's path forward.

This is why republicans look so favorably on Russia. It's the white man's "paradise". Very few minorities, women are kept in the background, old white men run everything, and corruption is just part of doing "business". This is the republican utopia, in their mind's eye.

At the very least, it's time to send Trump and his "good people" back to the fringe of society where they belong. At best, it may be time to eradicate these Nazi scum so they never darken society's door again.

They have their first amendment rights, just like everyone else, but they don't have the right to promote hatred and genocide. It's time to remind them of that fact. Unfortunately law enforcement organizations have many members who are sympathizers with these vermin, if not outright members of these Nazi scum. Enforcing laws that keep this scum at bay is difficult when the enforcers are part of the problem.

I don't know what the answers are to combat this, but without some sort of action these lowlife scum will keep pushing and pushing until they and their new Fuhrer, Donald Trump, control the political destiny of the United States.

It is the defacto home of the new reicht. Brownshirts were the first wave of the nazi attack in Germany and it is obvious that history is about to repeat itself. Will se wise up and stop it before it does? Or will we sit at home and sip our mixed drinks while thinking it won't ever happen here.

(BTW, I find it hysterical that those pasty white, bloated idiots had to hold their rally in front of their favorite beverage store. After all, I doubt most of them could have waddled too far for their caffeine fixes after twenty minutes of actual physical activity. I bet every single one of them was sweating like a horse after a day in the fields just to put that garb on. Pathetic. Very, very dangerous... but pathetic.
