    Funny, I guess both my grandfathers were fascists when they kicked Nazis in the teeth.

      To be fair, if they’re still around they’re more than likely Trump supporters.

          It’s a fair assumption to make, given that old people make up the vast majority of Trump supporters.

            I’m having trouble finding a study about support by age group that separates the boomers from the older generations.

            There’s reason to believe that the greatest generation has a different outlook on fascism than silent generation and boomers, though at this point those two younger generations dominate the 65+ group. At this point, WWII vets (assuming the youngest were 18 in 1945) would be 97+. Boomers are mostly 65+.
