This is what #HannahArendt called "#theBanalityOfEvil"

To truly become an outright #fascist country, it doesn't happen like a cartoon light switch. It happens on a continuum we've been on since the #teaParty #GOP over a decade ago

And it seems like nonsense

So you laugh and you laugh

And your reaction makes sense

But nothing is stopping this. It doesn't matter how absurd it is. It's happening

So you need to stop laughing

To those wondering when the #Democrat pushback will come, it won't.

Their strategy is "we told you so."
The sad thing is it will likely work.

I predict Trump will lose his #House and #Senate majorities after the #midterms ... then they'll successfully impeach him.

Then we'll go back to "fascist lite" business as usual #WallStreet boot licking.

The way to prevent business as usual is to PRIMARY the incumbent democrats.

That is what made the #TeaParty so wildly effective in shifting this country to the so hard to the right.

Primary the business as usual democrats. Take. Them. Out.

IMHO, after the #TeaParty manifestations in September 2009, #Obama’s error was not taking advantage of his #cult of personality, nascent #mobile #video technology of iPhones, #socialmedia, and #townhalls.

The strategy shoulda/coulda/woulda been to just go on the road and let the Creepy Weirdos out themselves on camera in front of friends and neighbors.

There was a reason that hoses used on people at Selma radicalized the #American public through their TV sets.

#History could have rhymed.

Nothing quenches the thirst quite like a rooibos tea. Rich in electrolytes and antioxidants, this tasty little plant from South Africa is perfect post workout for a little rehydration. There has also been success using it in skincare routines to help reduce inflammation and promote clear skin.

We have a great selection of rooibos teas on midnighttease.com! If you want some extra anti-inflammatory qualities, may we suggest Waxing Moon? It's a rooibos blend of ginger (well known for relieving inflammation) and apple for a touch of sweetness.

#DonaldTrump has tapped a former congressman, and co-founder of the #House #TeaParty caucus, to become his next ambassador to #Canada.

Trump said in a news release Wednesday night that #PeteHoekstra is his nominee for the position, a #RightWing former lawmaker who has promoted baseless #ConspiracyTheories about #Democrats, #Muslims and even suggested this year that feared Democrats would "steal some votes" in the election.
