Trump Is Not the Only Republican Who Fits the Fascist Definition
Briefly

We're in a battle between two completely different visions for who we are as a nation and who we're going to be. We revere the founding principles. We revere our Judeo-Christian foundations. We revere individual freedom and limited government, and the rule of law, and peace through strength, and fiscal responsibility, free markets, human dignity, secure borders. But the other team doesn't anymore, my friends. This is not your father's Democratic Party. They are now full on to Marxism and socialism.
PolitiFact immediately pointed out that Johnson's remarks were based on 'Pants on Fire' falsehoods. But that correction did not prevent Johnson from hitting the road to promote his dishonest, and crudely divisive, claims about the Harris campaign, which is, in fact, backed by dozens of prominent Republicans who recognize that the Democratic ticket is closer to the American political mainstream than today's GOP.
It has become increasingly common, in these closing days of the campaign, to see Republican candidates making bold, unfounded claims that contrast starkly with their opponents' positions, positioning themselves within a narrative that exaggerates the ideological differences.
