Trump wants all illegals (and that will translate to anyone who looks illegal) to be rounded up door to door and shipped off.
Cruz, Rand, Bush, and the rest of the Klown Kar want all government to be replaced with something less accountable like corporations and churches.
This is the exact way that Mussolini described fascism, a combination of corporate power and religion. By the time you get there, no redress is possible and the police will be used to enforce the laws of those groups.
Both GOP candidates and elected have called for the power of the state to force an Old Testament code on the entire population. Such statements as one has to be a Christian to an American citizen; stoning for gays; death penalty for women who have had legal abortions and the list goes on.
But in Trumph's case, he'd start with Mexicans and that will require a police state to root out the five million or more in the USA without documentation.
Why do you think people are being encouraged to be armed to the teeth and have kill lists made up? Do you understand what this will mean for the unpopular, which will eventually include anyone that does not enthusiastically support what the GOP wants?
