Of course it is a matter of degree, all this occurs along a spectrum of inhumanity, but the stage was set by the inhumanity of previous administration's including Obama/Clinton. This could not have happened without the policies and facilities they put in place. My point is that people like Thom Hartmann focus on the other party while holding the party he electioneers for virtually unaccountable. Without critical thinking there can be no pressure for change as that would come from us, and that is a far cry from the tenets of progressivism.
I've read Thom taking on the Democrats from time to time. It isn't the Democrats who are sliding us into fascism. One has to pick one's battles. I was deeply disappointed by both Clinton and Obama. That said, I was absolutely horrified and terrified of Trump and his cronies. The enemy of my enemy, in this case, is my friend - a flawed friend, but a friend.
