LETTER: Fascism is fascism, no matter how you word it

Paying lip service to compassion doesn’t make you a decent human being.

Reasonable people who have been paying attention to “Trumpism” and his followers have been appalled by the hate-filled hypocrisy of the greedy conservative base that would even consider voting for him.

The increased mortality of pregnant women in Texas is just more GOP-failed trickle-down policy-in-action that targets minorities, the poor and women.

Paying lip service to a fetus does not make you a Christian or a compassionate human being.

Fascism is fascism.
