Which GOP faction is fascist honest question.
The faction that calls Mitt Romney a "RINO" or openly attempts/succeeds in ruining Kinzinger or Cheney's careers for simply holding people accountable. There was a time when good men on both sides would put aside the party, and stand unified for Country. That's what we need today. It is what Cheney and Kinzinger are doing. I'm a doggone registered Republican, and I freaking hate the current direction of the party.

I'm not saying that those people are "fascists." That's a strong word. However, I do believe that there are those in the party who are actual fascists, just like there are those in the Left who are actual communists. Still the far right checks many of the boxes on the "what it takes to be a fascist" checklist, and we should keep an eye on that. After all, the Germans didn't just wake up in a fascist regime one day. It's a process, one step at a time. I'd say those who deny that there was a coup attempt on January 6th, or who deny that the 2020 election was a fair election are teetering dangerously on that edge. Those are simply facts that any rational person should understand. The far right believing in the "big lie" is really terrifying.
