Jeb Bush adviser just comes out and says it: Donald Trump looks like a fascist

#TeamJeb won't let The Donald walk this one back

Jeb Bush is not joining his fellow Republican, Donald Trump, in arms in the age-old tradition of conservative combat against biased media reporting, and instead, Jeb and his campaign team are piling on The Donald’s latest absurd suggestion that there should be a database to track and monitor Muslims in the U.S.

A bit of a mini-media controversy erupted Thursday afternoon when headlines blasted news of Trump suggesting the mandatory registration of Muslim Americans: “Trump won’t rule out database, special ID for Muslims in US.”

But, Mother Jones’ Kevin Drum quickly pointed out the flaw in the rush to report the latest Trump absurdity during a week of ugly xenophobic one-upmanship:

It would be one thing if Trump floated the idea himself of warrantless searches and special IDs. It’s quite another if a reporter brings them up and Trump tap dances a little bit. Needless to say, in a better world Trump would have explicitly denounced all these ideas. Obviously we don’t live in that world. Still, the only thing Trump actually said here is that we’re going to have to look at a lot of things very closely. The rest was just a reporter fishing for a headline....

I think his sole task was to put Hillary in the executive mansion.

And we are not playing the game. Whoopsie.

How does the government vet Syrian “refugees” without a database?

They could just be kept in a big binder.

Fascism is a centrally planned economic system where the government and industry collude. Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany are textbook examples.

You are so right. Mr Trump denied these stories while loosely embracing the general concept. He knows that most people with any common sense think we darn well better keep a close eye on mooslims. It’s not the Lutheran crowd causing things to go boom.

If the refugees are 'vetted', they're in a database

If they are given social security cards, they are in a database

If they are given public assistance, they are in a database

If they are moved to public housing, they are in a database

If they are given ID, they are in a database

If they use a debit card at a store, they are in a database

If they have a cell phone, they are in a database

If they pay taxes, they are in a database

Yeb looks like Baby Huey. His wife looks like Gollum with mammary glands wearing a stolen dress. His son Pee looks like a crosseyed Ted Bundy. His son Jebby looks thoughtful, but that is his booking mugshot for public sodomy and resisting arrest. His daughter looks more shopworn than Amy Winehouse. His father looks like Dorian Grey’s portrait.

Yeb, you are a kamikaze pilot without a zero, a suicide bomber with just a whoopee cushion, name without a person and a box without a check.

Just go away.

The left does not seem to lnow the mood of the people. And “left” includes the GOPe and el jebbe in this case.

Build the wall, deport them all! Send them back!

Database for subversive America-hsting, God-hating (our one true Judeo-Christian God) aliens? Hell they have had us patriotic Americans in a database for years! Would tattoo numers on our arms if they could rip our guns out of our hands. Big government Marxist/fascists are totalitarians no matter what letter follows their name.

They pretend not to know what is written in the Koran and in Sharia law, but we know. Islamic justice for infidels (Jews and Christians) is not a pretty sight.

Trump was right!

Yep. pretty much like everyone in America.

And that’s not even counting any secret databases.

Does this fit the definition of projection? Anyone who is willing to make this type of outrageous comment is without a moral compass. Without such a compass, they will likely believe anything.

Considering this is from ‘Salon’ what else do you expect but lies and misinformation...paid for by a super pac...something we need to get rid of...

If people don't have the money to fund their own campaigns, they don't need to run for any office...

It's time for these ‘government controlled communists’ to go play ‘tiddly winks’ and act like the ‘little kiddies’ they really are...

You should also note that fascism sprung from socialism, and is socialistic in nature. (While it should not be necessary to call Nazis socialists, as it is in the very name of the party, it is increasing ignored)
