Hard to believe, but its true....
The German Fascist’s (aka Nazi’s) learned a lot about their dirty business from us here in the states.
It is well documented that Hitler’s cabal modeled their eugenics, propaganda and race segregation tactics after what they saw here. There are may well written pieces on the subject, just to cite a few:

So now we’re beginning to truly understand that there is really only a paper thin disguise occluding the torrent of racism that’s still alive in this country. And it’s all coalescing around Donald tRump and his regime.
All the warnings and cautions about the consequences of a tRump presidency went unheeded by the GOP nominators and millions of voters. Excuses were manufactured for his world-view, behavior and radical ideas in enough of the press and by his propaganda machine to make him seem more normal.
And of course the string-puppets in our Ship-of-Fools known as Congress, continued with their complete abandonment of the interests of we-the-people. Because God knows they had to be the guardians of corporate profits, manipulators of the economy and executors of their own re-elections. As the old saying goes, it’s easy to tell when a Congressman is lying to you… his lips are moving.
Trump’s brand of Fascism probably won’t manifest itself in such the way that Adolph’s did. No, the rats have evolved significantly since those days. Besides, tRump has a lot more to lose financially than dumb-shit Adolph ever did.
While we may suffer our own Kristallnacht in some fashion, we’re more likely to see hate and intolerance repackaged into a mockery of “helpful” programs, “friendly” judicial appointments and “Evangelical Christian Morals” being taught in our schools, just to name a few.
We must remain vigilant and not allow ourselves to sleep though a tRump takeover of America. But instead, keep pointing out at every opportunity and to a wide audience, the intolerance, hatefulness and lies that spew from this Golem of a pseudo-president; letting him and his cabal know that we are not taken in by their propaganda and phony promises.
