Alter: Trump Polling Well Because ‘Some People Don’t Understand What Fascism Is’

Political analyst Jonathan Alter commented Friday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” on President Donald Trump‘s rise in the polls, which he attributed to voters not grasping “fascism.”

Host Wolf Blitzer said, “Trump’s latest praise for dictators as a new ABC poll finds that nearly half the country thinks Trump is a fascist, will put those numbers up on the screen there you see 49% believe Trump is a fascist and yet our new CNN national poll today shows the race is tied you can see it over there, 47% to 47%. How do you square that?”

Look in the mirror. Neither do you? 🙄

Alinsky 101: Accuse your enemy of what you are doing.

Maybe they do actually understanding what Stalinism looks like.

We know exactly what fascism is:

—Trying to cram a vaccine down people’s throats with massive coercion in blatant violation of the Nuremberg Treaty
—Working with Big Tech companies to silence opponents and crush free speech
—Using crazy leftist rioters to turn major cities into massive dumpster fires.
—Letting criminals and illegal aliens go free to terrorize the public

Fascism is Democrats.

We know it when see it.

Mr Alter, can you define fascism?

[cgbg]

More fascism:

—Anti-white hate and sexual perversion pushed by every government institution
—Lawfare against political enemies in politics and communications

Or because people have seen fascism and want no more of it

My husband was a history major. I almost took enough history in college to minor in it. We completely understand what fascism is. We voted Trump.

[grateful]

At least the way they use it, anyway....

[TigersEye]

I know exactly what fascism is. That’s why I voted for Trump.

Moreover, it’s why I’ve never voted for a Democrat in my life.

[No name given]

I doubt he can.

[californian by choice]

There is no doubt, Jonathan Alter does not know what fascism is, I get the impression that for him a fascist is someone who thinks differently than him.

[Bullish]

You obviously don't even know the meaning of the word Jonathon. You just use it as a pejorative.

RIGHT!!!???

None of the ANTIFA or BLM asses know how BAD communism is but they all want it!

As do a tonn of college folks, teachers AND students.

Idiots

[Jane Long]

And, communism and tyranny!

[fella]

Biden/Harris is a good example.

[SaxxonWoods]

Leave out the “don’t” and you’ve got it.

Falter is a fat lazy schnorrer, his wife is a longtime fluffer for Colbert. F him and everything that looks like him.

[txeagle]

Some of us just prefer conservative fascism over woke fascism.

When I look up the word "fascism" in politically neutral sources like The Oxford Dictionary of the English Language, I use element identification against Trump's first term, and Biden's first term.

It's clear to me that the Biden administration hits more of the notes of fascism than Trump's administration. Furthermore, some of the notes that hits in the Trump administration can be traced back to Congress.

Looking at the broad picture, I see that the Democratic party is a racketeer influenced criminal organization. It believes in the Rule of Law about as much as the KKK believes in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,

When I went into the voting booth during the week, I excluded any candidate with the mark of the D. That way, I know that I'm doing my part to avoid fascism, or worse communism.

It's the first time that I paid more attention to party affiliation than to the candidate. And will continue to do so as long as the Democrats continue on their current course.
