He was on pace for concentration camps, within a few days. He's moving fast but it takes time to drag a nation to war. We have time to oppose him. We have time for him to choke on a hamberder. With each passing day things get worse, but at what point will we collectively go further than protest? Things have to get really bad before that reaches critical mass.
What a fucking mess we've created. You know who I always wonder about? Whatever happened to the Germans who voted for Hitler? At what point did they regret it? When he turned into a madman? Or not until the Soviet and western tanks rolled into town?
Because until Trump voters start realizing what they've unleashed and start trying to take it back, nothing will stop him. So what's the German blueprint for that? I don't know.

That's unbelievably disappointing.
Nazis always gonna nazi. It should be regarded as a mental illness.
People who are ill deserve compassion. Nazis deserve a mass grave.
Robert Evans had an episode of Behind the Bastards about the little Nazis. The middle class shopkeepers and middle managers that weren't top level but were in the party.
Most of them never admitted it was a mistake to support Hitler.
To know all of that and to think, "that's fine."
It's a kind of mundane evil I can't comprehend.
The idea that this country will burn to ash and so many people will tell themselves at least a black woman wasn't President. At least those filthy immigrants were sent to Salvadoran death camps. Too bad about my children, my business, my home, but we did the right thing. How can you look at all that and not at least think, maybe it wasn't worth it? Maybe we'd all have been better off another way?
Fuck.
