Yes. They were. It's fairly scary.
And very Beerhall Putsch-ish. too bad his base doesn't bother to learn history correctly, and that's why we're all doomed.
You sure about that? Seems to me his base is learning its history just fine, since they're managing to speedrun Hitler's rise to power even faster than Hitler did.
We've really got to quit underestimating the enemy and get serious about defending ourselves.
those aren't the bulk of his base.
Most of his base are deluded into thinking he's not actually like hitler. That he's some how moral, and a really good guy who would never.
Most of his base are morons voting against their own interests.
The orange asshole, aka the second coming of Christ (according to many who've partaken of his koolaid).
The tactics are what they successfully learned, and they don't have to actually understand that he's like Hitler in order to execute those.
