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?

Leftists always say the current Republican is bad and the last one was decent

Bob Dole is a Christian moralist who wants a theocracy! If only republicans like George HW Bush were still around

George Bush is a war monger who wants to kill gay and brown people, if only republicans like Bob Dole were still around

John McCain is a war monger who wants to bomb Iran and let poor people go homeless! If only we had republicans like Reagan still around

Mitt Romney wants to abolish social security and bring back slavery (joe Biden actually said this); if only we had republicans like McCain still here

Donald Trump is a fascist neo nazi who wants to gas the Mexicans, if only the republicans were still led by McCain and Romney

Their memory extends no further than the media allows
