Read Wm. Shirer's "The Nightmare Years," about the period before the Third Reich. America isn't a little like early Nazi Germany, it's a *lot* like early Nazi Germany.
I remember 2016 without a trace of fondness. All the "Jill" people, all the "Bernie" people, all the "I'm not voting because they both suck" people. No question but that…

It's not too late. An arrested Trump would be a study in crying tantrum and would do more to defuse Trumpism than his death would.

'Hitler's Willing Executioners', which I read more recently (about 10-12 years go) go into it as well.
