"Semi-Fascism!"

Mr. Joe O'Biden took time off from vacation the other day to school us plebes on what constitutes "MAGA-Republicans."  As if we needed his help.  They are, he said, "semi-fascists."  And then he doubled down and repeated it.  And then his legal immigrant Black gay woman ignorant Press Secretary made it indelible by repeating it once again during a formal press conference.   She said, 

"MAGA Republicans are semi-fascists."

That's what she said.  Isn't that like being a "little bit pregnant?"  

Well lemme' see here.  Webster's New World Dictionary defines fascism "As a political system headed by a dictator under which the government controls the businesses and labor and the media, and opposition is not permitted."

Hmmm.  See any similarities here?  In case you don't, let me provide some help: 

     -  Wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to unilaterally shut down the Keystone-XL pipeline, a project between the governments of the U. S. and Canada?  One projected to employ more than 100,000 union laborers, at an average rate of $75.00 an hour?  One where we were to share the costs and proceeds, projected to be 800,000 barrels a day, pumped straight to our refineries in New Orleans?  Cheaply, cleanly, and safely?  Much safer than by rail, or by truck?  And this just at a time when we're some 400,000 barrels a day short, reflected at the gas pump?  Oh, and pissing Canada off immensely.  BTW, they simply pumped the oil from the Alberta tar sands to Vancouver, and then by transshipment to, ready for it?  China.  

Wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to do that?

     -  And wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to unilaterally end the 20-year overseas military involvement in Afghanistan, against the advice of his generals, when we only had 2,500 advisory troops still there, and to the death of many, and to America's disgrace?   With Afghan loyalists falling off the landing gear of our C-17's?  To America's everlasting shame?  We left more than 1,000 Americans and 87,000 Afghan advisors there! 

Wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to do that?

     -  And wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to hire 87,000 new Democrats to help extract a few more dollars from the pockets of the peons?  By becoming an ARMED IRS agent?  Carrying concealed in case you, the Taxpayer, fail to pay what they think is your fair share.  By being paid top-dollar to join the Club and start contributing to "the cause," ala the Democrat National Committee, and get out there and start those audits?  

Wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to do that?

     -  And wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to open up our southern border to all comers, in contravention with our Federal laws?  To the tune of nearly 4 million known illegal entrants, so far, and then fly them under cover of darkness all over America using COVID relief money to pay for it?  

Wouldn't that take a fascist dictator to do?

     -  And wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to unilaterally wave his aged, manicured hand and erase the debt of 40,000,000 scofflaws, mostly doctors and lawyers and engineers, who took out loans and failed to repay them, in effect rewarding bad behavior with other bad behavior?  Especially when this lying old would-be, "Semi-Dictator" said as recently as 2 years ago that he didn't have the authority to do this?  And that old hag at the House of Representatives said the same thing?  

Wouldn't it take a socialist dictator to do that?

     And wouldn't it take a fascist dictator to sic his FBI on concerned fathers and mothers who just want their kids taught reading and writing, and not gender reassignment?  To actually brand them as "domestic terrorists" and treat them as such?  To arrest and jail them for simply speaking out at school board meetings?  Are you friggin' kidding me?

Wouldn't it take a socialist dictator to do that?

There are many, many other examples.  And I just might list more in the future.  But as for now, try as I might, I cannot recall a single instance when Trump waved his manicured $Billionaire hand and did anything like the above.  Oh yeah, he once tried to move some already-apportioned Defense Department budget money to finish building the southern border wall.  Which we need so desperately now!  And about which those mayors in Big Blue northern cities who work so know to know absolutely nothing?  Besides that, can't think of a thing.  

Can you?
