This article (an opinion piece I believe) is from December of 2020 but it did do a good job of highlighting the GOP's transformation into an anti-democratic establishment. Of course, I wouldn't go as far as to call them Fascists yet given that word is used liberally, but it clearly shows the GOP is utilizing a 50-State "Southern Strategy"- and how power has consumed them.
Blame Nixon, it was his Southern Strategy in 1968 along with a divided Democratic party over Vietnam that caused him to break through in the South and won in a landslide 4 years later. That tradition came back with Reagan and has stuck with the party since.
