You know, I only realized later that I meant to ask which was most useless

Not which was the most useful. So sorry for the backwards-worded poll, guys!

Poll: Given the choices, I figured it was tongue-in-cheek and did pick the most useless, anyway.

There's a point about Trump and lot of the other far-right Republicans. At one point before America joined the war, there were estimated to be 17.8 million members of the American Nazi party, and they regularly held rallies numbered in the tens of thousands nation-wide. (like the famous one in Madison Square Gardens)

Thing is, when the US joined the war, although the largest party disbanded, (the American Bund) those people didn't just go away and many of them didn't change their minds. The principles and ideals of American fascism continued to be adhered to and handed down in private, and there are still smaller organisations of American Nazis even today operating publicly.

Also, post-war, there was an influx of actual Nazis into America, on the order of tens of thousands, some of whom were un-repentant Nazi war criminals, only a few of which were part of Operation Paperclip.

It is notable that many of the top Republican party members, Trump in particular, are only one generation removed from provably documented members of the (American) Nazi party. Tumpism is just Nazism with a new flag.

Fair.
