>Trump has zero chance of holding office again

I want to agree with you. Sadly we only have to look at the Weimar Republic and the rise of a particular fascist leader.

[In the 1960's, Ron Jones, a High School Social Studies teacher (after being asked a question as how the Germans could claim ignorance), started an experiment, which got out of hand](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Third_Wave_(experiment) )

I don't think fascism is dead or no longer a threat at all. Far from that.

But Trump himself? I think there is a better chance that God, who I do not believe in, appears on earth and annoints him the King of humanity than there is that fucking loser gets elected again.
