Poor Bill Kristol. Donald Trump has absolutely broken his brain.
How do we know? Well, we have ample evidence demonstrating Trump lives in his head rent-free.
Here's another one for the pile:
Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) ~ “This is not a nation that belongs to them. This is a nation that totally belongs to you.”
None dare call it fascism.
Republican Voters Against Trump (@AccountableGOP) ~ Trump seems to imply that America only belongs to his supporters:
"No matter how hateful and corrupt the communists and criminals we are fighting against may be...This is not a nation that belongs to them. This is a nation that totally belongs to you."

Just so we're clear on this, saying the nation belongs to the people is now 'fascism'?
Please, explain that to us, Bill.
Chesterton_Report (@Veritas_Curat7) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} Yes, Bill ... Fascism is the marriage of government and corporate power. Saying the country belongs to regular citizens is literally its opposite. You fool. When you complete PoliSci 101, come back and we will explain useful idiots.
Fascism is just another form of Statism, where the state's power is everything and the rights of individual citizens is nothing - just like Socialism, Communism, Marxism, etc. - you know, the kinds of systems that the Democrat Party desires to implement, here, in the United States.
If you look up 'useful idiots' in the dictionary, it'll be a pic of Kristol.
Ran Harpaz (@RanHarpaz) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} Fascism isn't when a nation belongs to its people. You're thinking of democracy. The thing that you and your ilk tried to push onto every middle eastern country was Fascism, led by your cronies.
We thought they loved democracy.
Democrats and Never-Trumpers have a VERY different definition of "democracy" than the rest of the world has.
DangerZone (@HighwayToTheDZ) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} You claim yourself a serious political pundit, yet drop this loaded term on a guy who’s already been president and the only “Fascism” that was done was the leftist medical “experts” that Trump stupidly trusted for their wisdom in handling a pandemic. You’re not the adult.
Dan, Human Tetris Wizard and Guy in a Chair (@Libertybibbledy) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} “This is not a nation that belongs to communists and criminals” is neither Fascist nor controversial.
But Kristol is on the side of the communists and criminals now, so it's a problem.
Pablo (@Pablo_1791) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} Bill Kristol simping for commies is peak Bill Kristol.
Peak Bill Kristol.
Remember when he was a "conservative"?
Moog Rogue (@moogrogue) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} I’d prefer that you attacked his ideas rather than fling thought-substituting cliches like “Fascism,” the most overused and misused word in the American political lexicon.
But, they're so afraid of him and his arguments -- which can be attacked and debated -- they resort to screams of 'Fascism!' instead.
Gregory Jon (@gregoryjon) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} According to the polls, I think he's talking to ALL Americans.
Oof. Harsh, but true.
theRoddick (@OriginalRoddick) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} Saying a nation belongs to the people is now "Fascism." Bill is the Founding Father of the coming Idiocracy.
He's one of them, for sure.
Bonchie (@bonchieredstate) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} Trump makes the basic political statement that the country belongs to the voters and not political elites and criminals, and Bill thinks that’s Fascism. Incredible.
Anthony Abides (@AnthonyAbides) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} The hyperbolism from anti-Trumpists never ceases to amaze.
Never. It's amazing to watch how many people have completely betrayed every position they previously held because Trump -- a brief blip in the history of this country -- became president, and might be president again.
Just incredible.
RBe (@RBPundit) ~ {Replying to @BillKristol} You don’t know what Fascism means?
No, he doesn't. That's painfully clear.
