Yeah man, a presidential candidate with a real chance of winning is telling his base that he'll get rid of elections as president, and this is something that his biggest wealthiest supporters actually want him to do. Multibillion dollar right-wing think tanks that work directly with him are openly discussing how the "Democratic experiment" has failed, and that Washington should be "burned to save America".

He checks off just about every other box on the fascism checklist too, including genocide...

But I would hate to overreact, so I'll just pretend it didn't happen.
