    You can tell the GOP’s role model is Hitler with all the plans they have.

    You can’t have a good fascist country without minority groups to oppress and blame everything on. Especially when republicans are responsible for most of the crimes the administration complains about.

      It’s likely Hitler’s role models were the white supremacists of America. The Heritage Foundation has roots that trace back much further than Hitler and Nazi Germany, and Hitler himself had material regarding the effectiveness of Jim Crow laws.

      The Heritage Foundation also clearly has applied lessons learned from Nazi Germany - outright executions are going to get you lots of resistance, where as disease, policy driven famine, and political violence can kill a large number without ever becoming too unpopular. Interestingly, this may be the reason they push so hard for controlling all media and social media platforms.
