Scarborough on UN Genocide Day: 'Maybe' We Shouldn't Compare Trump to Nazis
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/11/2019 6:14:14 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Who said Joe Scarborough was consumed with hatred of President Trump? Take it back! Because on today's Morning Joe, Scarborough showed such remarkable restraint, saying Trump should only "maybe" be compared to the perpetrators of genocide and gas chambers.

Ed Luce of the Financial Times had mentioned that the UN had observed World Genocide Day earlier this week, and that the Secretary-General had issued a statement saying that "the Holocaust didn't begin in the gas chambers. It began years before with hate speech."

Luce gave the standard liberal disclaimer, claiming he wasn't suggesting "for a moment" that America's heading toward genocide. Of course not! His mention of hate speech leading to genocide and gas chambers was entirely random, utterly unrelated to his immediate segue to "the dehumanizing language that the President has used."

But Scarborough wasn't so sure that the Trump/genocide/gas chambers connection shouldn't be made.

Such admirable restraint by Scarborough, saying Pres. Trump should only “maybe” be compared to the perpetrators of genocide and gas chambers.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

I compare pro abortion perpetrators - journalists, politicians and celebrities, to nazis In this country alone, more than ten times as many innocent people have been killed so far.

Bit late, Joe. Your team has already made the claim that “Trump’s” detention centers on the border are concentration camps.

Trump should only "maybe" be compared to the perpetrators of genocide and gas chambers.

It is a law of history that fundamental ideas dictate the leader's and the masses' view of what constitute the practical. Ideas determine the course of history of a nation, a nation's frame of reference, code of values, a people's character and culture, and major decisions. The same fundamental bad ideas that led to nazism are those of leftardism: irrationalism, emotionalism, altruism, collectivism, statism, and socialism.

Netflix has a series on now that details the operations of the Einsatzgruppen in Russia and the Baltic states.No sane person would ever compare anyone with Hitler after watching that.

Trump-Nazi analogies have of course become the dependable go-to slur for the liberal media. But it was particularly grotesque to witness Luce and Scarborough indulge it with explicit reference to "genocide" and "gas chambers." Can the MSM sink any lower?

Yes. The Morning Joe crew and 'guests' can always sink lower...

Hey Joe -- the old saying was "if you aim at the King, don't miss."

Guess what. Payback's gonna be a real Hillary.
