11. I agree, but the Republican Party began its embrace of fascism 50 years ago.

Trump is the culmination not the origin. The White House under the Republican was a series of increasing lawlessness. Nixon resigned in disgrace, his vice president was a convicted crook and his burglars went to jail. A long come Regan whose cabinet and some 24 in his administration were convicted and many served jail sentences. One of the man henchmen that disgraced the Marine Corp is no the daring leader of NRA. Bush along with his cabinet led us into a war on absolute lies that cost the nation over 5,000 service people lives and thousands maimed for life. Trump isn't an aberration just the another rung in the ladder to a fascist dictatorship.
