   What makes more sense, I think, is looking at events that happened in the US after Reconstruction.

   In particular the reaction to the first Black elected officials.

   In that context this reactionary movement makes perfect sense. This is punishment for having to have a Black president.

   If you listen to Tucker's comments from Madison Square Garden he makes this clear in many ways.

   This isn't about economic hardship at all.

     For reasons of rhetoric and ideological similarity many people have been scrutinizing the rise of fascism in Germany. It's not the only example of fascism, but it's the most destructive, singular and horrifying. The type specimen.

     I can't help but notice that the hardships of the German people after WWI have little resemblance to the inequities and flaws in the US economy.

     There are no huge classes of people who have suddenly found their lives changed. 1/
