Nice to see the Daily Show getting back to what Jon made it: political satire, not just orange skin and comb over jokes.

Too bad it was a day after John Oliver’s much better take-down.

The problem with producing a Fascist Checklist is that the majority of GOPers who read it will say, ‘Hey, that’s not so bad, I thought Fascism was supposed to be a a BAD thing!’

In the interest of accuracy, Mussolini invented fascism, not Hitler.

I know, it’s a minor point, but I’m just sayin’. Discredit where discredit is due.

I don’t think the majority of GOPers or Americans think of fascism as a bad thing. Just look at Josh Marshall’s Apologia for Fascism yesterday – http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/tell-me-about-the-90s-gramps.

The sad thing is that most Americans don’t realize what fascism is. You are absolutely right that many people will agree with the insane things Trump is saying. They are going to be really pissed off when he backtracks on all that stuff during the main campaign.
