Remember when Colbert and the NYT were crying that death camps would be run by "fascist Trump".

businessinsider 6 Nov 2020 09:37:10 UTC Stephen Colbert broke down in tears and called Trump a fascist after the president's conspiracy-laden rant at the White House Sonam Sheth 

"You only survived this up until now because a lot of voters didn't want to believe everything that was obvious to so many of us, that Donald Trump is a fascist," Colbert said, adding that the GOP needs to "get off the Trump train" because "it's not a passenger train, and he'll load you on it sometime, too."

I reminded them that those who are now considered white, such as Irish Catholics, Eastern European Jews, Greeks and Italians, were once the boogeyman. I warned them that supporting white nationalism and Mr. Trump, in particular, would be self-destructive, an act of self-immolation, that will neither help their families or America become great again.

Still, not one told me they’d wavered in their support for him.

So in late 2016, I told my speaking agency to book me for events in the states where Mr. Trump won. I wanted to talk to the people the media calls “real Americans” from the “heartland” — which is of course America’s synonym for white people, Mr. Trump’s most fervent base. Over the next four years I gave more than a dozen talks to universities, companies and a variety of faith-based communities.

My standard speech was about how to “build a multicultural coalition of the willing.” My message was that diverse communities, including white Trump supporters, could work together to create a future where all of our children would have an equal shot at the American dream. I assured the audiences that I was not their enemy.

I reminded them that those who are now considered white, such as Irish Catholics, Eastern European Jews, Greeks and Italians, were once the boogeyman. I warned them that supporting white nationalism and Mr. Trump, in particular, would be self-destructive, an act of self-immolation, that will neither help their families or America become great again.
