It sounds like were at an impasse, I want to fix the problem before it evolves farther, but you think its already past saving, or at the very least you can only see a route to saving the country that goes through calling half the country fascists and hoping they listen.

You do realize that only about 1/3rd of the country actually votes/voted for Trump, right? And of that third, not all of them are fervent supporters/outright fascists. If half of his voters are fervent supporters, that means only about 1/6th of the country is fascist, and another 1/6th sympathetic. You are overstating this.

But yeah, there is definitely an impasse with the rest.

I misspoke, I believe you said facist sympathizers if they vote for trump previously.
