You don’t get to use that excuse when you re-elected him.

My whole point is that those two are indistinguishable from the outside.
(Although conservatism in general rather than the radicalised form that is fascism)
The only realization I’ve had as an adult is that conservatism has always been fascism in sheep’s clothing.
