I am not a Trumpster... however, I do find the irrational reactions everyone has to his tweets or statements incredulous. The one thing Trump understands better than anyone, is how to manipulate the media... and in that I mean so that they give him Free air time in exchange for ratings. The overreaction to him, which gives air to the Trump=Hitler memes is pathological.
Let’s pretend for a moment, Trump is Hitler. And? Is our system of govt set up to support a fascist? I would argue that Obama has already attempted to take us down the road of fascist socialism, and that was only possible because of a complicit democratic congress. So do you believe the republican or democratic congress would support a Hitler? I also do not believe merely holding a nativist view is what designates you as a fascist. Supporting the idea that the federal government directs the means of production, is what ultimately directs control to a totalitarian system.
The Mussolini quote is actually a great quote, and not his originally... the fact Trump tweeted it, is sticking his finger in the eye of the left.

Moreover while getting out his own message he so distracts his opposition that they forget to get their own message out. What does Rubio stand for? Marco may know - he doesn't - but we certainly don't. Foam boy is so distracted about worrying about his manhood that he doesn't tell us what he would do.
