Plus it’s not like there are Democrats doing anything to fight it.

Exactly. There is no need for fascism because there is no left opposing him. That is what people do not understand. We have corporate government that will be dictating your lives and you are focused on Trump and not the Oligarchs that control everything.

  They lack the numbers. And it seems everyone is frightened by everyone else's obsequiousness towards borderline illegal orders.

  What would a hypothetical "left" do differently than the current Democrats? Assuming this "left" is similarly handicapped like the Democrats are, having just lost control of the House, Senate and White House?

  You don't get to blame the Democrats anymore. They were voted out in November, and are no longer in power in any way. There is no "opposition" power structure in the US system. If congress brings a bill to a vote, democrats can threaten to filibuster it, but the GOP can pretty easily call that bluff right now. That's it. That's the only "power" a minority party has in the US system.

What things do you think the Democrats should do but aren't doing? Your "anything" suggests you think there are many such things. A list would be helpful.

> Plus it’s not like there are Democrats doing anything to fight it. Can you enumerate some of the things that they could do, given recent actions have all been Executive Orders, which is the prerogative of the Executive branch. Unless things start happening in the legislature, where perhaps things like filibustering are an option, what options do the Democrats have against purely Executive actions?
