Seriously though, I get what you're saying. Everything about Trump and his supporters (not the "eh, it's not Hillary" folks, but the actual supporters) is definitely akin to the right-wing populism going on in Europe right now. I can't decide whether our two-party system makes it worse, or better in our efforts to fight it off.
I think what makes Europe different is that they have a smug **** like Angela Merkel running things. Her open door policy for Syrian "Refugees" (Because seriously, when is the majority of a immigrant group fleeing from war military aged men?) was irresponsible and poorly thought out. No way in hell her party survives next election cycle. They're done.
