US Republicans move to dump TrumpAFP

Washington (AFP) - Many say the populist crazy talk is typical of the White House primaries, but Republican frontrunner Donald Trump's increasingly incendiary remarks are leading some conservatives to brand him a "fascist" and party rivals to ramp up attacks against him.

Most spectacularly, the real estate tycoon recently said he would support registering Muslims in a database, and insisted -- despite lacking any evidence -- he saw Arabs in New Jersey cheer when the Twin Towers fell on 9/11.

His stance has become so belligerent that voices are asking, even inside his party, whether he is committed to democratic values.

Republican experts are warning that Trump could do lasting damage to the GOP, and that his nomination in the party primaries would essentially hand the presidency to Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton.

Several campaign teams in the primary race now appear to be coalescing around the need to oppose the celebrity billionaire's candidacy.

Establishment conservatives even took the unfathomable step of using the F-word against a member of their own party.

"Trump is a fascist. And that's not a term I use loosely or often. But he's earned it," Max Boot, a military historian and foreign policy advisor to Republican presidential hopeful Marco Rubio, posted on Twitter.

"Forced federal registration of US citizens, based on religious identity, is fascism. Period," added John Noonan, a national security advisor to former Florida governor Jeb Bush.

In its Tuesday editorial the New York Times said the past week of the campaign had been "dominated by Donald Trump's racist lies."

The Seattle Times used similarly strong language in a Wednesday editorial that denounced Trump's "button-pushing lie after button-pushing lie."

"Trump's campaign message reflects a kind of creeping fascism," the paper said. "It needs to be rejected."

Some campaigns have seemed reluctant to directly take on the Trump machine.

But Bush, struggling to gain traction in the race, piled on, telling Fox News Wednesday that Trump has been creating "an alternative universe" with his harsh rhetoric, particularly about Muslims.

"He doesn't know what he's talking about," Bush said of Trump's assertion that thousands of people were cheering on 9/11.

- 'Defeat and destroy' -

Many Republicans like New Jersey Governor Chris Christie have argued that the climate sparked by the Paris attacks would lead voters towards experienced politicians -- not an untested commander in chief such as Trump.

There is no differance in outcomes, in having a democratic or republican president. Under Obama we have had contuied war, massive debt, erosion of personal libeteries. Medical costs have soared, big Pharma has run a monk, the middle class has shrunk. Not saying Obama is worse than Republican presidents only that it is more of the same. Two doors to the same room.

The fact that both sides of the bought and paid for aisles and the press are scared to death of him, makes me think he might could actually straighten out the mess in dc.

I can somewhat agree with you. But you gotta admit, some people we don't need in office

You should be. Trump goes against everything this country stands for. And he's the GOP's golden boy. Racism, sexism, Islamophobia, all rolled into one candidate. I wouldn't be surprised if David Duke wasn't behind the scenes pulling the strings.

It shouldn't be, but nothing will change until we actually admit there's a problem.

Muslims are about an inch away from becoming the next Schindler's List.

Black people continue to experience racism and police brutality so commonplace #beforeyouwatch has been created to prep folks for what they've seen hundreds of times before.

Women still trying to be defined as equals when it comes to pay in 2015.

This isn't a third world country, this is America. We should be better than this.

Funny your comment about women being treated as equals, but you defend a religion that systematically and in oppressive fashion relegates women to the lowest common denominator of society in so many parts of the world.

Bill Maher, famous for his liberalism even pointed out the hypocrisy of liberals in refusing to recanize this and address it.

They're making progress, or is this not enough? Because we didn't wake up one day and have civil rights, look at how long it took.
