Bit of column A, bit of column B.
Trump is not a uniquely American invention and he's not the first bumbling dictator to gain power through populist bigotry.
However, there is a significant feedback loop with America outright rewarding craven Nazis, handing them "success" and then allowing them to continue perpetuating and emboldening people just like them.
