The leftist extremists are the true "threat," not the "marginal bozos" of universally condemned hate groups, and "idiot Republicans" are getting sucked into the "ludicrous and ridiculous... charade... to destroy the presidency of Donald Trump," best-selling author David Horowitz told Newsmax TV.
"If there's a serious fascist movement in America, it's the left," Horowitz told guest host Jonathan Gilliam on Thursday's "The Schnitt Show." "They're the ones who go around to cities picking fights, violence they want to shut up other people. Even these alt-right clowns were not about shutting up the opposition and suppressing it.
"One fascism in America, it's coming from the left with the support of the Democratic Party I should say. That's the reality."
Horowitz, who himself was once liberal/progressive before rejecting that path for conservatism in the 1970s, said the narrative of President Trump as supportive of neo-Nazis is "fiction... cooked up by the left to attack Trump."
"Donald Trump is, unlike our previous president Obama, is very pro-Israel, and he's the first American president that has Jewish family for crying out tears," Horowitz exasperatingly told Gilliam. "This is so ludicrous and ridiculous and that's what conservatives and Republicans should be saying.
"This is a charade but its one purpose is from the time he was elected the Democrats were going to out to destroy the presidency of Donald Trump, to undermine, to sabotage it, and that hurts all Americans."

“You have a vicious, lying media which will seize on any fragment of his. If he gives out a statement, they’ll look for the one point that they can twist and use to attack him.”
And “idiot Republicans” have fallen for it, hook, line, and sinker, feeding into the opportunistic, leftist media frenzy, according to Horowitz.
Love David Horowitz.
Half the Republicans hide out in a closet peeing their pants and half are snipers smearing Trump. None of them stand up to Democrats and tell them they’re deranged.
Some of them are idiots, and some of them are crooks. And maybe some are a little of both.
Ditto.
I do not think that they were very hard to suck in. I believe that they were willing victims.
The anti-Trump Republicans are not “idiots”, they are co-conspirators with the Democrat Party.
They are not idiot Republicans, they are Democrats in R jerseys.
“...Some of them are idiots, and some of them are crooks....”
You left out “selfish, political cowards”.
Far too many Repubs match the description of idiot.
Anyone heard anything from Louie Gohmert? I noticed he likes to talk, and claims he is fearless.
Bingo!!!!
Fallen for it? The R leadership is complicit imho. Lower levels are muscled into complying with their wishes.
I wish President Trump will somehow find a way to establish a PATRIOTS PARTY to help him MAGA and to ensure his policies endure well beyond his eight years in office.
I am thoroughly disgusted with most if not all RATS, way too many RINOS and the propagandist media all working night and day to destroy our wonderful POTUS!!!
I’m trying to remember the last time I disagreed with David Horowitz. Actually I don’t think it has ever happened
Horowitz: A true American patriot.
No, they know
They are just back stabbing weasels
My Congressman, Matt Gaetz who I have always supported and voted for, sent out an email which included an idiotic comment about how we have to oppose these hate filled right wing groups. He said nothing about the far more powerful and numerous, leftist thugs. In addition he failed to defend Robert E. Lee, one of the greatest men America ever produced.
My ancestors have been in Walton County, FL since at least the 1700s and I will not allow them to be slandered without opposition.
I sent him an email saying basically what Horowitz is saying. So far no response from his staff. If I do not hear from him I will actively oppose him next election.
And if anyone knows the agenda of the left, it's David Horowitz. (He was one)
Anyone who hasn't already done so, take the time to read Radical Son by Horowitz. It's a big part of my conservative foundation.
