Our big worldwide problem of the moment is simply that the most powerful person on our planet is simply stupid. Is all. “The ‘S’ word. Use it. He’s fascist because he’s stupid. Is all.
the usa has been a proto-fascist regime since day one. dems are just playing their role in the two party dictatorship of capital. we will absolutely get no help from them. we need to organize accordingly, and quick!
I am impressed with what Krasner has to say. It does not ring of mainly posturing like a lot of attorney/politician talk. A call for mass action is not going to come from his ilk though. It should of course, but it won't. Trump would have people like him in a position of relative prominence brought up on "sedition" or "inciting a riot" charges. On Jan. 6 all of that was cool, but not when the putative opposition does it. I always have a bit of a trust problem with ambitious people in the normative power system, as far as motivation - real resistance and reform, or personal power aspirations?
Is there already not enough of a grassroots base to take large scale and sustained action to create a crisis for Trump’s fascist regime? No Dem elected officials wanted or need.
Nailed it just hope others yes many, many, others hear and see ( love it ) that F word and do something; hand in hand as comrades fighting back ; so it is not just a nail in the coffin of Democracy but will not be the nail in our coffin- if we do not act NOW!
Krassner: "DONALD TRUMP IS THE EMERGENCY."

Maybe most Americans are just simply stupid.
That doesn’t surprise me.
What to do?
There's a hint of what I say is missing in Krassner's comments on CNN, perhaps.

Anyone in any way supportive of State is disqualified, on the grounds of support for violence.
How do we do that? Dems....more concerned with insider trading, their personal portfolios. Ultimate evil along with fascism...predatory capitalism ..
