Amanda Marcotte : In the final days of the election, Republicans argue we must elect a textbook fascist to protect the sacrosanct right of a white man to be rude without being criticized for it.

Marcotte says the pettiness of the stakes MAGA defenders have laid out is that it makes the election seem smaller.

She says it's not even a promise that Trump can fulfill: He can't make others giggle at stupid, bigoted "jokes".

The fear is that talk of democracy and freedom is too esoteric and that the last-minute voters will only be moved by pocketbook issues.

Some Democratic allies worry that all this democracy talk is a distraction from what voters tell pollsters is their top issue.

Others point out that previous elections reveal that voters do care about these loftier issues.
