Anti, what, now?

 Trump wants to prosecute anti-fascists as terrorists. This Texas trial will test his power. (MS NOW)

“If you pretend that a lie is in fact a truth and begin to live in the reality of those lies, choosing purposefully to rearrange the facts of the matter, so that in the end no fact will ever matter, you are a smarmy person. Eventually, your shelter, your charade, your snake oil will turn sour and eventually rot. It is pure physics, schmucks carry so much self- loathing weight, that eventually one too many easy targets will collapse in on themselves, because stupid is a heavy burden!” (Howard Buncher, my father)

ANTIFA, as in Anti-Fascist. Anti- "Anti" is a prefix meaning "against" or "opposed to" something. Fascist- A fascist is someone who supports a political ideology that emphasizes strong, centralized authority, often led by a dictatorial leader, and prioritizes the nation or race above individual rights. Hmm, or is the word duh, or maybe the phrase I am searching for is, WHAT THE FUCK!

The Republican Party, with the clear directive from its Reich Leader, Trump, has championed the charge to dismantle Democracy, use the US Constitution only when it seems to cover up their crimes, and to limit the freedoms to speak up, protest, and demand that justice prevail. The Republicans have always known that, in a fair and equal opportunity government, the hateful, discriminatory rhetoric and actions that they have based their beliefs on lie only in the hearts of the minority, and dwell deeply in the stupidity that keeps people like that alive.

Once again, without any hocus pocus, and in plain sight, we are being told by Trump and his Gestapo that to be against Fascism is not as American as Apple Pie. OMG, seriously, OMG!
