Three years ago, I wrote an article here describing Trump as a fascist and explaining specifically why that was literally the case by the book definition of reality. And over the next three years pointed out that the enabling and complicit Republican Party had joined him in their enthusiastic acquiescence. So, it was good to see MSNBC host Mehdi Hassan go on a self-described 60-second rant outlining in detail why he "right all along about Trump and fascism" in his description last July and feels comfortable saying, "I told you so."
Granted, he's talking about "last July," as opposed to three years ago, but in fairness he was on national TV and not a personal website, so the standards are a wee bit different. And yes, while he describes Trump's fascist actions, he doesn't explain why those action are, in fact, the book definition of fascism (which they are), but then he only had 60 seconds, as opposed to a wide open website to rant and explain at one's heart's content. So, all in all, it's definitely good. Particularly good, too, because it means I can take a brief respite and turn the floor over to him. All the better since the Tour de France is on, and this gives me more time to watch.
