Yeesh. John Kasich's campaign takes its biggest shot at Donald Trump, featuring a former U.S. prisoner of war, Ret. Col. Thomas Moe, adapting a famous quote about the Nazis, and applying it to Trump.
*snip*
See what you've done, Governor Kasich? Now you've got me, Trump hater extraordinaire, forced to defend Trump from charges of crypto-Nazism. We still don't know whether Donald Trump really wants Muslims to register with the government. He's never directly proposed it. He's given a half-distracted, loosely-worded affirmative answer to a reporter when it was first brought up by the reporter. Every time he's asked since, he gives an answer about Syrian refugees. Chances are this is a deliberate strategy. When the media writes denunciatory headlines about his comments, Trump wins over the support of the Americans who think a national registry of Muslims would be a good idea. But he also has plausible deniability, as he's never actually proposed it or explicitly said he supported it.
Mr. Moe himself engages in frustrating verbal slipperiness, claiming Trump says he's "going to round up all the Hispanic immigrants" when he's done nothing of the sort. He's proposed rounding up illegal immigrants of every race, creed and color. We deport illegal immigrants every year and deported roughly 400,000 in 2012--a policy that is Constitutional, legal, and morally justifiable. Trump is proposing an expansion of existing law--nothing Nazi-ish about that.

GO TRUMP GO!!!
I thought he dropped out of the race?
Trump should just ignore him... he’s at <1% support, right?
Kasich is gov of OH, the site of the Republican convention. How's our elder statesman (sarcasm) going to provide leadership after he's accused the front-runner of Nazi-like tendencies?
I wish these idiots understood that NAZIISM, COMMUNISM, AND SOCIALISM, are a lot closer together on the political spectrum than any of them are to Conservatism.
We continually let them get away with the old trope that communism/socialism is LEFT, therefore, naziism must be RIGHT. Just because Hitler and Stalin were enemies in WW2 doesn’t mean their political views were so far apart.
Kasich’s gone all mob soldier, firing political bullets to protect the familia.
Kasich is a pissant.
He’s John McCain with a bad haircut.
Trump loose way of speaking gives them an opportunity to twist what he actually means and when do in the press, it just puts Trump back in the spotlight. And everyone knows by now that Trump's opponents are lying...so his support continues to grow.
Did he mention that his father was a mailman in this attack?
This is where the millions GOPe gave Kasich went
Alas poor Pissant..... I knew him well
The first party to invoke Nazi or Hitler in an argument.....
Loses.
I for one liked pissant
Well ... I’m thinking Pribus is feeding the Kasich frenzy. That way he doesn’t have to spend RNC funds .. or maybe they are giving Kasich the funds to do the dirty work the RNC is too cowardly to do (which is their usual).
I can see Pribus’ fingerprints all over this.
