Those wo study fascist politics have remarked previously that America has been fortunate for most of its history not
to have had a fascist figure rise out of the ranks of American fascist movements. And in the case of Donald Trump,
that remains true - he has no background or history as a white supremacist or proto-fascist, nor does he actually express
their ideologies.


Rather, what he is doing is mustering the latent fascist tendencies in American politics - some of it overtly white supremacist,
while the majority of it is the structural racism and white privilege that springs from the nation's extensive racist and
genocidal white-supremacist historical foundations - on his own behalf. He is our Pied Piper leading us down the path towards a
fascist state even without being himself an overt fascist.

That being said we should use our psychological X ray eyes to peer into the motivations of Trump as we have W, Obama and the Clintons.

W had a chip on his shoulder for having his father called a wimp, Obama would make sure he would never be accused of the stereotype of
being an angry black man. The Clintons have always been assured they could easily bamboozle people after their experience with the good people of Arkansas.

Trump is motivated by a get even mentality. His idea of a deal is maximum exploitation. In a nuclear age how will that play with the cultures
that view America with paranoia and evil incarnate?

I challenge you to compare and contrast FDR and his "Freedom from" speech with anything Donald has ever said.
