I think a mistake we, as a country, keep making is pretending Trump came out of nowhere. The Republican party has been trending toward fascism for the last 25 years and we failed to address it.

we didn't ignore it or fail to try to address it, you've just all been calling marginalized people paranoid and screaming IDENTITY POLITICS for the whole time. Also, your timeline is wrong, it's been about 80 years.

Many people say we want to go back to where we were before Donald Trump. That would be a terrible mistake. Where we were before Donald Trump [...] got us Donald Trump.
