A History Lesson for the 'Trump Is Hitler' Crowd

Leftists love to claim that President Trump is the reincarnation of Hitler and that he's a Nazi, or maybe a fascist. They never supply any facts to substantiate their claims. They seem to be immune to logic.

Yesterday, I visited the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, where a million and a half Jews were murdered in a most vile demonstration of human depravity. A new picture was driven home to me in a most forceful manner.

The master race theory that allowed the Germans to believe that their actions were acceptable was developed by American Democrat political philosophers. Hitler's Nazis were happy to see the theoretical constructs their American counterparts developed and astonished to see how far the American left wanted to take them. The Holocaust now had its foundation.

Sorry to break it to the author but, there was no holocaust or persecution of the Jews so the place you visited must have been a foundry or something. The radical left wing extremists(who are basically modern day nazis) are erasing history at an alarming rate. Luckily there are some folks who will maintain these historical issues and NOT let them fade.

Godwin’s Law: Calling someone Hitler is a measure of how much you’re a moron.

Liberals are well known for calling others what they are themselves.

This image never fails to crack me up. So true.

Good article and comment. During the campaign even Glenn Beck called Trump supporters “brownshirts”. I was in my car listening to him on the radio on my way to work. I was stunned. I wrote down the date and time at the stoplight. I shut him off and haven’t listened since. I was an advocate of Glenn Beck.

History BUMP!

Clinton’s team did a great job of framing Trump as a dangerous and unstable Hitler-in-the-making. As I noted before, that provided moral cover for her supporters to threaten and physically assault Trump supporters in public.

Oh, I see. “I’m rubber, you’re glue. Everything bounces off of me and sticks to you.” deal huh?

Well, he’s wearing a red MAGA hat now apparently. Too little too late Glenny.

The comments at the site are insane.

Yes. But those who claim to be "Liberals" in today's America, are many times over, more likely to be closet National Socialists, than not. National Socialism--as Communism--was a contemporary example of monolithic politics, in deference to a Compulsion For Uniformity.

The repeated suggestion on the Left that patriotism (that is Trump's motivation) is somehow akin to National Socialism, is an example of the Nazi "big lie" technique, and is a typical instance of Misdirection: Familiar Leftist Tactic.

The trolls hit the disqus conservative sites hard on the weekends because the moderators take those days off.

I noticed they were swamping Townhall last night.

I usually don’t have to block but a few during the week. On the weekends, I’ll block 10-20 a day.

They add nothing to any conversation, so I don’t miss a thing by not having to scroll past dozens of Lunatic Leftist droolings.

No holocaust??

[PGalt]

Exactly.

Either you forgot your sarc tag, or you’re a bad word.

[rktman]

Yeah, I just looked. And we thought some FReeper comments are sometimes "iffy". 👹

[rktman]

Sorry. Lack of "/S" does not make a "bad word" does it? 😹

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Many of us lost family in the camps, or escaped the Nazi horrors and can tell about it.

To deny it is insulting and ignorant.

[Flick Lives]

No holocaust??

Pretty sure that comment was sarc.
