All this political extremism, and taking-back-your-country, and "True Patriots&quot TM), and demonizing of minorities, and political gridlock, and hatred for the mainstream-media, and seeing conspiracies everywhere, and normalization of politically-motivated violence, and anti-establishment hysteria, and this desire for a strong-man restoring the nation to the good old days... They have nothing to do with the US.

Nope.

Nothing whatsoever.
