I’m going to start collecting some links to pieces that explain why Donald Trump is an existential threat to America and the world, and thus why Hillary Clinton – love her or loathe her – is vasty preferable and must be elected on November 8.
• CATO scholar Timothy Sandefur, a strongly anti-Hillary libertarian, explains why Trump is an American Mussolini.
• Weekly Standard’s Jay Cost: Trump is too “erratic” to be trusted with the presidency’s crucial “non-ideological” tasks.
• An excellent Reddit compilation of responses to “Tell me why Trump is a fascist.”
• Washington Post editorial: Donald Trump is a unique threat to American democracy.
• Reason: Trump’s RNC Speech Was a Terrifying Display of Nightmarish Authoritarianism.
• Another excellent compilation, from Slate, of reasons Trump is unfit for the presidency.
• Blogger Paul Richardson: Think really, really hard before voting for a 3rd party candidate.
• Neoconservative columnist Robert Kagan: This is how fascism comes to America.
• Andrew Sullivan: America has never been more ripe for tyranny.
• My response to “But the Supreme Court!”
• My original #NeverTrump post, from February.
