This particular set of right-wing populists is very nationalistic with a heavy-handed sprinkling of authoritarianism. I despise comparisons made to Hitler and other dictators throughout history, but this recipe is what the Nazi party thrived on. The situations are different for a number of reasons, and Trump is not Hitler, but this combination of ideologies and rhetoric is what they used to win the hearts and minds of the people.

Trump's campaign would have ended 8 months ago if one of his primary opponents could have put these 4 sentences together. Literally every single person he's run against has played into his hand and got themselves embarrassed.
