If you are younger than 45/50 years of age and didn't get a well rounded history education, the gop nazi problem article explains how we got here.
Sadly, I lived through everything he explains. My father who supported Adlai Stevenson, a progressive in the 1952 and 1956 elections for president, he eventually changed and supported George Wallace for president in 1968. It was a church, that changed his mind.
