I know I don't have to post all the instances of fascist Trump supporters, but this one really hit me pretty hard.
This came after a rally where Trump taunted protesters about going to prison for exercising their First Amendment rights, used lyrics from the song "The Snake" in his speech, and really exposed himself as a Hitler wannabe.
Then this, said to a reporter for a Dutch publication:

At this rally, police pepper-sprayed protesters outside the venue. Inside, Trump pointed out a protester and speculated that perhaps he had ties to ISIS, just days after a protester at a North Carolina rally said "next time they might have to kill protesters" because they might be ISIS.
Corners have been turned that mean we cannot go back. There is a snake in this story, but the snake is Donald Trump, who has now sprayed his venom deep into the Republican Party. As President Obama so adeptly pointed out last night, they've created him, and he's their monster.

Maybe we should all be thanking Trump for giving a majority of Republicans the courage to reveal their true selves. Trump isn't poisoning them, Trump is reflecting them.
I hate how everyone is spinning how Trump or RW noise radio or Fox new is corrupting the GOP base.
This is who they are. This is what they've always been. The RW strategists knew this wouldn't fly, so they've keep their base quiet and talked about things in a wink-wink, nudge-nudge fashion. Trump is giving them permission to be themselves.
And yes, Trump is accidentally doing us a great service- a lot of people didn't believe the snakes were there, hiding in the grass. He invited them out for dinner.
