    The only thing that will change the US trajectory towards fascism is an economic crisis. A major one.

    Sadly there will be collateral damage. I’m sorry for them.

      You say that, but in Nazi Germany (whose playbook we’re following) economic crisis was part of the rise of fascism. Not its fall.
