George Santayana said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”

A study of Italian Fascism can reveal much of what is going on today in relation to Obama’s Marxism and how Trump has tapped into the frustration with GOPe.

Italian Fascism was highly nationalistic, and if we were comparing it to modern times, it would come across much like Trump. Studying it would be helpful for those who can’t figure out Trump’s positions (pro Government healthcare, strong arm against illegals, etc.).

One big difference is Trump wavers between isolationism and “bomb the crap out them.” Italian Fascism was not isolationist.

Mussolini was rabidly anti-Marxist, and rode a wave of populism to power. Trump is not exactly like Mussolini, but philosophically and personality wise there are some frightening similarities.

pro Government healthcare....wrong.

Q: ObamaCare is one of the things you call a disaster.

TRUMP: A complete disaster, yes.

Q: Saying it needs to be repealed & replaced.

TRUMP: Correct.

Q: Now, 15 years ago, you called yourself a liberal on health care. You were for a single-payer system, a Canadian-style system. Why were you for that then and why aren’t you for it now?

TRUMP: As far as single payer, it works in Canada. It could have worked in a different age. What I’d like to see is a private system without the artificial lines around every state. I have a big company with thousands of employees. And if I’m negotiating in BY or NJ or CA, I have like one bidder. Nobody can bid. You know why? Because the insurance companies are making a fortune because they have control of the politicians. They’re making a fortune. Get rid of the artificial lines and you will have yourself great plans. And then we have to take care of the people that can’t take care of themselves. And I will do that through a different system.
