   Trump's best demo in these averaged polls is white people with bad jobs; it's not even close: 68.3 to 32.4.

   So chalk one up for the lefties arguing fascism succeeds when broke crackers get desperate.

     (and to be honest, I have no real argument about that theory of politics/fascism, so long as we also acknowledge that fascism is a legalist doctrine installed from the top down; there ain't a fascist movement in history that isn't/wasn't run by rich people. Broke crackers getting ground up by capitalism simply don't have the power to CREATE a fascist movement. But you can certainly capitalize on the racism and fear of the other desperate people in a white supremacist society already have.)

     Reminder:
     The self-proclaimed "center" always was key. Their utter lack of resistance and willingness to stay "reasonable" always helped fascists tremendously.

     Looking at Biden, LOL-af Schloz and Macron right now.

     @AnarchoNinaWrites As a broke cracker, I can also say I'd literally vote for Joseph Stalin right now. What the liberals don't get is I am sympathetic to the plight of immigrants and minorities, but I also need low-income housing and good schools in my neighborhood too.
