Keep in mind the nazi party (the national socialists) perhaps responsible for among the greatest crimes against humanity of the 20th century...

Was a right wing party.

Today right wing "conservatives" (who are anything but) are spearheading protectionism, nativism, the scapegoating of immigrants, and the takeover of industries (nationalization) while ignoring the courts, undermining congress, running huge deficits, and making 'excuses' for inexcusable acts carried out by Putin, Xi, and others.

Conservatism used to stand for free trade, limited government, the free exchange of ideas, a strict interpretation of documents (like the constitution)... but those things don't apply anymore.

Somehow the US is losing its standing as the global power... and the response from Americans? To go down the same disastrous road as the Germans did in the 1930s.

@Solomonsatoshi is right - China won the trade war and the United States needs investment in its infrastructure and education to stay competitive... not more scapegoats.

It's not too late to 'get real' but we need better leadership from Americans.
