Talking about knocking on doors and pulling people out and deporting them, what does that remind you of?
Thats pretty damn close to fascism, if not the definition of fascism.
Earlier this month, Trump referred to the radical left as the enemy within.
I think the bigger problem is the enemy from within, Trumptold Fox News.
We have some very bad people, some sick people, radical left lunatics, he continued.
During a town hall earlier this week, Harrissaidthat Trump is a fascist.
She said he is increasingly unstable and unfit to serve.
When asked if she thinks he is a fascist, she said, Yes, I do.
But after that, I never want to be a dictator, hesaid.
I know nothing about Hitler, he said.
The supposed revelation did not prompt him to backtrack on his rhetoric.
AsRolling Stonereported in September, sources said that regularly described violent fantasies during his presidency.
Officials privately spoke about Trumps American death-squads idea.
Harris and Cuban are not the only ones to express the sentiment that Trump is flirting with fascism.
Mark Cuban is a Loser, Trumpwrote.
Wouldnt take his phone calls anymore while at the White House, and he went rogue.
A weak and pathetic bully, hes got nothing going.
Really low clubhead speed, a total non-athlete!
Cuban called the dig at his athleticism the best part of the post.
