My personal mission it to assert that the driving force behind today's GOP is a bunch of proto-fascist clowns.

Fixed it for you.

Your defensiveness when confronted with the actual positions of the driving force behind today's GOP is perhaps a first step in you realizing that you support a bunch of proto-fascist clowns.

It accurately portrays the GQP's position as nothing new, or recent.

Awww, how cute. However, it does nothing to change the underlying fact that Replacement Theory is now mainstream in the GOP. To wit:

Echoing the great replacement themes "doesn't make political sense. It's just pure racism, that's all it is. It's the fear of the loss of identity, loss of privilege, the fear of the loss of dominance. It's incredibly anti-American," says Republican consultant Mike Madrid, who is at work on a book about the Latinization of America.

Republicans appeal to that part of the electorate – aggrieved white voters who feel they are being subsumed by other cultures and races – "because it works. It's working," Madrid says, referring to Donald Trump's 2016 election and the success of like-minded Republicans in some primaries this year.

An AP/NORC poll earlier this month found that 32% of adults believe a group of people is trying to replace native-born Americans with immigrants for electoral gains. That group is more likely to believe in conspiracy theories, says NORC spokeswoman Jennifer Benz, and that group is also more likely to get its news from right-wing sources.

If 32% of Americans adults believe in Replacement Theory, you can be damn sure that at least 50% of Republicans do. IOW, it is mainstream Republican thinking, whether it embarrasses you to admit it or not.

From Embrace to ‘Replace’
A decade ago, the GOP recognized that it needed to diversify to win. Now, many of its members are implicitly defending a conspiracy theory aimed at keeping non-whites from the country entirely.

Some people simply refuse to acknowledge what's happening right in front of their faces. Sad.

Bullshit. To wit: you'd better take a look at the "survey" that linked article is based on. It does't support your premise. Further it shows that those who believe in replacement theory are represented among Repubs and Dems. That said, it is also a significant MINORITY in either party that subscribe to that theory.
