7. Fascist tactics. The Republicans are following the Nazi playbook line for line.

Their ultimate goal is the transformation of the presidency into a virtual dictatorship and the end of democracy. The major media is failing the people to clearly and loudly warn the citizens. Even if Trump is defeated they will not be deterred just as what has transpired following the presidencies of Nixon, Regan, the Bush boys and now Trump. Each presidency has moved them closer to there goal.

Even when they don't control the White House they have launched a campaigns to stifle the any legislation by a democratic president. This is just as effective in their under mining the confidence in the government as their antiregulation legislation. What they are unable to do accomplish that they threaten to suit down the government. There are major flaws in the constitution that allow a minority that has no interest in providing effective legislation regardless of its need and merit to totally hamstring government and thereby destroy the people's confidence. A favorite charge and tactic that Reagan initiated.
