Maybe Musk wasn't consciously aping the nazi salute but the object of his affection, our seditionist in chief, has every necessary attribute needed for a fascist slide in our politics. trump lies so automatically that he does so even when the truth would serve him better. He demonizes his opponents without regard to facts. If somebody disagrees with some statement or plan of his he NEVER bothers to debate the merits of the question but instead calls them the worst name he can think of. When Episcopal Bishop Budde asked him to have mercy for refugees and classes of hated people he responded by calling her a "radical left hardline trump hater", words both false and inflammatory. He is a clear and present danger to our republic and to the principles of self rule, checks and balances in government, and the peaceful transfer of power.
