Remember Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, and Franco were not majority based movements. We need to work to overcome it.

While many of the people who voted for the KKK endorsed candidate after voting twice for Barrack Obama may realize their mistake in throwing their support to the popular vote loser, there is still a devoted base who will forgive every transgression the current occupant of the White House commits. It should be remembered that totalitarian movements (fascists and communist) all have roughly a third of the population that are true believers in their cause. There are also those that follow because they are either doing well or scared and do not want to "rock the boat." These are people that probably will never be convinced to turn away from the KKK endorsed candidate and progressives and centrists would do better to concentrate on those that a) were Obama supporters at one-time b) voted for Jill Stein c) stayed home.

People need to remember that like Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, and Franco, this Presidency is not a majority President, having lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton by almost three million votes. There are more of us then there are of them. We only have to work a little harder in 2018, 2020 and afterward to stamp out this cancer forever.
