My controversial take: Stephen Miller is a horrible fascist, but we shouldn’t applaud a Dem Governor in official communications calling him a “cuck” & saying “cry harder.” This coarse rhetoric is the language of fascists; we need to fight them without stooping to their level and talking like Trump.

Yes, why use actual jackbooted thugs as icons of the administration’s fascist urges when we can use abstract debates over policy nuances. Tweaks to policy will surely grab the attention of swing voters.
