Even Libs like Jon Stewart said "you cannot use Facism for the things Trump is doing it is an inflationary use of the word". Actual delusional idiots, the writing was on the wall and has been for months and months.

Its fascism.

I mean, my take on that was more that the democratic party can't just run on "Trump is a fascist" and then just kinda move on from that messaging when he wins.

The image of Biden welcoming Trump into the White House and acting like the transition was completely normal was infuriating.

Though things should have stopped before it got to that point. His impeachment should not have just gone away with no consequence. There was no meaningful resistance to the incredible amount of delays in all of his court cases during the last 4 years, including from judge Cannon who looked like she was completely in his corner. The supreme Court should not have ruled that section three of the 14th amendment wasn't so executing. Media shouldn't have normalized him as much as they did.
