It is worth noting that I read on the BBC this past weekend that illegal immigration has finally hit 50% percentage of people in the UK as a major issue. The government got right on it because things that worry half the citizenry are considered a problem.

Contrast that with a steady 2/3 of Americans who have been concerned about illegal immigration for some time now with nothing but excuses from Washington.

What kind of government is it that ignores the will of the people on numerous issues? What kind of government encourages groupthink to poison civic interactions with paralyzing fear of being hounded, threatened, locked up, black-listed, or worse, for saying the “wrong” thing, which arbitrarily changes from day to day? See the problem is, that IS where we are.

Bingo! We have a winner! Folks who worry Trump “would be a fascist” don’t realize we are already living with fascism.
