Zach Dasher, the Republican running against Rep. Vance McAllister (R-LA), in Louisiana’s 5th Congressional District floated the idea of America being in danger of becoming a Mussolini-Hitler-Stalin-type regime.
“Are we in danger of this Mussolini-Hitler-Stalin type regime?” Dasher wondered. “Are we in fear of this happening here in America? Is this is far fetched to think that America could decline to a point where we are susceptible to be taken over by an authoritarian government? Well, I want you think about that for a second because I think we arrogantly think ‘nah, that’ll never happen in America.’ Why not? Why not?”
Dasher, a nephew of Duck Dynasty’s patriarch Phil Robertson, made those comments on a podcast at WillingTothink.org. The comments were resurfaced by Buzzfeed on Tuesday.
In the same batch of audio from the podcast Dasher also said that the “eugenics movement in this country is alive and well” and said that MSNBC is “a major piece of the propaganda machine of the central planners of the Marxists.” He also said that schools are pumping kids “full of atheistic doctrines.”

If the Tea Party types win, then we will surely have an authoritarian
government. After all, their authoritarian righteousness is inimical to democracy and translates well into the German of Hitler and the Russian of Stalin. Only someone utterly ignorant of history or a reader of Jonah Goldberg’s twisted history that denies right-wing Republican affinities with authoritarianism could think differently. Cruz is the pro to-fascist, as recognized even by other Republicans (see recent volume of
Atlantic Magazine). Europe looks at the Tea Party and religious fundamentalists and recognizes dangerous
ideology from experience. American right-wingers are living in an ahistorical fantasyland. Sinclair Lewis’
book of authoritarian takeover in the US foresees an anti-democratic future enforced by men clutching
a flag and a bible. Sound familiar?
