Only mildly hyperbolic, they are technically fascists. Nazism was an expression of fascism, as is Conservatism which as a movement started after WWII and their first priority was recruiting racist Democrats to defect to the Republican Party. Fact, look it up. Second priority was equating liberalism with anything bad (liberalism is the opposite of fascism). Third priority was forcing out liberal and moderate Republicans. Fourth priority was establishing a radio propaganda network (ditto, bleep, bleep) then a television propaganda network. Haven't you ever wondered why the Conservatives made an enemy of institutions like the ACLU that stand up for individual rights? Or why antifa is their enemy? Or why trumpers carry Nazi and Confederate flags? These are not coincidences.
