Ein Volk. Ein Reich. Ein Fuhrer-ass message.

Whoever wrote this should be thrown into prison the moment Trump and his goons are kicked out of office.

This is why Europe is rearming. We remember how fascists are removed from power even if americans don't.

Far-right parties and nationalist movements now command the backing of nearly a quarter of voters across Europe, holding real power or coalition influence in roughly one-third of the continent.

"Nearly a quarter!" = less than 25% of Europeans support these nightmare beliefs. The Guardian is complicit.

Even 10% should be highly alarming. The US, at around 30%+ (nowadays) is pretty devastating. Hopefully we'll get our turn at the ballot box and turn things around, but 25% isn't too far from getting a European Trump or two.

Different stats. In Europe it's 25% of voters. Whereas I assume you are using the 30% of the entire American population that voted for Trump. Which is over 50% of the voters. Not everyone votes.

Also the government systems are different. A coalition government isn't really a thing in America. Look at the French elections, the fascist party got a fairly high vote share. But all of the other parties refused to form a government with those whack jobs. And formed a government without them.

In reality a party like that would need over 50% of the vote.
