Two articles in The Sunday NYT Magazine OCT 27, 2024: 

According to the historian Robert Paxton, Trump IS a fascist. Really. It's not just name calling.

Also "If Hindenberg hadn't been talked into choosing Hitler", they might have had "an ordinary conservative & not a fascist." (Note the comparison to tech moguls pushing Trump & Vance in the following article.)

“THE MAGA MOGULS” describes how & why the “PayPal Mafia” (Musk, Thiel, Sacks & others) came to support Trump, push Vance, and how hard Musk is working to elect Trump. 

Also from the article:

"Trump's team had decided to do things very differently in 2024 ... using its campaign volunteers not to try to persuade voters, but to lay down a foundation for future 'legal' challenges." (quotes & highlights mine)

NOTE to Harris’ campaign leaders: In addition to thwarting Trump's "legal" attack on a free and fair election, you need to understand Musk’s ground game. The state GOP parties may be broke or not interested (see above), but (according to the article) Musk is trying to build his own ground game and has the $$$ to do it (tho' he is new at it, and so far, not too good).

Labels: fascism, ground game, Hitler, Musk. Robert Paxton. NYT, Thiel, Trump, Vance
