Fired CNN host Reza Aslan: “It’s time to treat Donald Trump as an enemy of the state”

If you call yourself and American it is your duty to #resist Donald Trump. He is clearly a threat to our republic. Remember: Hitler came to power legally. And don’t count on the Democrats. They’ve done nothing to defend us from the evils of this president:

Now here comes this racist, sexist, lecherous, pathologically lying fascist who very clearly outlines for them who they can scapegoat and blame. In many ways, what Trump has done is to tap into an existential crisis of a foreboding lack of self-identity that is eating away the heart of American culture. He galvanized that support in order to launch himself into this disastrous presidency. The real issue here, the real shame of it all, isn’t those who agree with Trump’s racism and sexism, xenophobia and fear-mongering. No, the real shame of it all is those who disagree with Trump but for whom his many horrible traits were not disqualifying and ultimately those voters also felt the same way.

The villain in this story as far as history is concerned is not Donald Trump. The real villains are Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell.
