In ‘16 Trump was my last choice on that stage and I too find him a deplorable human being on many levels but as a conservative if you could totally divorce your feelings for which idiot occupies 1600 Pennsylvania of the past two administrations which one served your conservative ideals better. Obviously, progressives will have a different response.
I'm a student of history, especially WW II since my father went in on D-Day and came back with mild PTSD and a lot of stories. He was 3rd generation German and was very angry at what he saw. I've read "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" several times. There are many similarities to where we are today. Trump's antics are similar to those of Hitler. In the 1930s the German people saw their choice in a similar way. Socialists and communists appeared to be coming on strong and Hitler's propagandists framed it as a choice between us and them. Many Germans chose the National Socialists. Look what they got. I see this in much the same light. I think Trump is dangerous. I'll live with the Democrats until the Republican party vomits up the Trump influence (if ever) and finds a decent candidate.
