Fwiw folks, I'm the one who was telling you America has always been fascist, like back in 2014 even. So you don't need to keep telling me that in my replies.
The issue is the words "Republican Party." If we want to talk about the GOP specifically embracing fascism as a political platform, it's muddy because there has been not one, but TWO major political shifts in American history that DRAMATICALLY changed who was in which party.
