“So, look to Germany. I’m fairly convinced it’s the model being pursued by insiders, both republican and democratic.”
The Germany of 1933 is all they are after.
About some of them, I think you are absolutely right. Not the GOP-E, though, or any remaining blue dogs.
I think the Obama faction really does believe in the dictatorship of the proletariat with themselves in the role of dictator.
The GOP-E, on the other hand, is more oligarchical and really does see themselves, people like Ann Coulter all the way to Paul Ryan, as smarter than the rest of us, and therefore, born to be in charge.
