I never voted for trump and have not voted for a republican in a long time (if your old enough at one time you could actually have the stray decent one. Especially if the democrat was particualar slimey or machine) often wondered how hitler had happened. I never in my wildedst imagination thought I would get a front row seat to see exactly how it had.
