No, I don't think she would have.
And that was 6 years ago. The republicans have gotten even more extreme since then.
No shit Jo (I hope you don't mind me shortening that, I always loved Jo from Facts Of Life growing up slightly younger than the real actress, because she didn't put up with any bullies. I could have used her as a friend in grade school through HS)
As I said before it is not paranoia to equate the tactics of our far right to the actions of the Nazi party rise. They are acting in the same false victim, scapegoating, wrongful vilification, Goebbels "accuse the other of what you do yourself" and "repeat a lie long enough". Trump and the GOP not getting to Kristallnacht or "The Night Of Long Knives" yet, does not mean the stage has not started to end up at that point.
