Which Past Fascist Does Trump Most Resemble? The Incompetent One.

The Forgotten Dystopian Vision That Explains Trump’s Canada Obsession

Am I the villain? When I send an old Reed story up to Kindle, I make edits. Nothing major, certainly not changing the story's nature. But still, I'm a writer. I always find problems, and problems need fixing.
