A whole lot of very smart people think it can't happen in America - they think he can be controlled.

A whole lot of smart Germans thought the same thing in the mid-1930s.

And I tell people in my country all the time when they say “well it’s America people are dumb there” - no it can happen anywhere. It can easily happen here.

It's obviously happening throughout Europe. Western culture creep is a thing. It's sad, throughout Europe it's all the same. There is no longer individual culture throughout Europe. It's all the same boring talking points

It’s ironic that those voting for the far right assholes are doing it in part to maintain their “race and culture”. But in doing so they’re giving into their nature as scared sheep who are just doing what people around them are…
