Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung pushed back on those condemning the former president’s choice of “vermin” to attack his opponents, telling the Washington Post that critics “who try to make that ridiculous assertion are clearly snowflakes grasping for anything because they are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.” (Cheung later clarified to the Post that he meant to say their “sad, miserable existence” instead of their “entire existence.”)

    This is the presumptive nominee for President for the Republican party, and almost all of the also-rans are exactly as bad. (Chris Christie is a piece of shit, just not for this specific reason.)

    Unfortunately, the power to solve this fascism crisis resides in people leaving the Republican American Fascist Party, and actually turning against it. Yeah, we’re fucked.

      Most conservatives support fascism. They don’t call it “fascism”, so they will deny being fascists. But conservatives always vote for whomever is the most harmful, oppressive, fascist candidate.

      Conservatives are fascists. They will never leave the fascist party.

      Hear me out, vote for Christie in the primary. He’s a piece of shit but infinitely better than Trump. If everyone does this, Trump is toast. Then vote for Biden in the general.
