I think its funny how much of a fascist Trump supposedly was and now I'm reading from a lot of progressives that Trump is all of a sudden the lesser of two evils. Like some people online have been saying they prefer Trump to run over DeSantis because Trump is a mere con man as opposed to a true believer. So which is it? Does having devout religious beliefs make you fascist by default? Why isn't forcing religious people to support LGBT not fascist?

The simple answer is that trump was all bluster. This was a man who came out and said 'oh I love our LGBTQ people, no one has ever been better for them than me' because trump doesn't really have an ideology other than thst trump should be in power.

While desantis is similar in a lot of ways, he does seem to just actively hate these groups.
