Adolph Hitler said: “If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” That line may never have been as true as it is today. What is that lie? It comes in many flavors: America is racist. Donald Trump is racist. Trump supporters are racists. Republicans are racists. You might notice a theme here. Now repeat the above and exchange the word racist for fascist...
None of those things are true. But truth doesn’t matter. Why? Because truth is not the objective, power is. In 2020 America, if you disagree with the left on anything from abortion to immigration to tax cuts to global warming you are an enemy who must be destroyed. And the primary weapons of choice are the slurs of racist and fascist.
And the beauty of it is that no proof beyond the assertion is necessary. Before he became president Donald Trump lived most of his life in front of cameras in the most media obsessed city on the planet. Morning shows, talk shows, radio shows, news shows, press conferences, grand openings, the Apprentice… you name it and Trump was there. As we all know, Donald Trump basically can’t keep his mouth shut, yet for the first 67 years of his life this man who never met a camera or microphone he could resist somehow kept the secret of his virulent racism a secret.
Then, once he became president he did such racist things as fund Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) at a level no president ever had, label the KKK as a terrorist organization, signed into law sentencing reform that had been called for by black leaders for decades, pardon the late boxer Jack Johnson and the very much alive Alice Johnson. He also supported “opportunity zones”, pushed for school choice, both of which disproportionately benefit minorities, and at the same time created an economy that brought about the lowest black and Hispanic unemployment rates ever recorded. But he’s a racist.
The proof Donald Trump is a fascist is equally strong. He arrests and jails any reporter who dares to question him. He uses the CIA and FBI to spy on anyone who disagrees with him. He imprisons judges who rule against his policies. He trains the military on people who are peacefully protesting his policies. Clearly Donald Trump is a fascist.
To understand how accurate Hitler’s words are look no farther than a Newsweek piece from July: Half of Americans Think Trump Is Racist and an Additional 13 Percent Are Unsure. That is simply staggering, and the reason is simple: In excess of 90% of the media coverage of Donald Trump is negative. “If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” Add to that the manipulation by Facebook, Google and Twitter and you get us to where we are today with an election that was not only stolen, but with 1/2 the population thinking that a flawed but good man is racist and a fascist...
The above is only a symptom of the real problem however. The real target is not Donald Trump per se, but rather the half the population who support him, and the truth is they hated us long before Donald Trump came onto the political stage, most clearly seen when we were called racists and Nazis for opposing Barack Obama in 2008.
Democrats and their comrades get away with it because they know we respect the rule of law. In 2008 when we lost to Barack Obama we didn’t riot. We peacefully protested and went to the voting booth. In 2010 we went to the polls and the Democrats lost 64 seats in the House and we finally turned the Senate red in 2014. That is what conservatives and Republicans generally do. We don’t riot when we don’t get our way. Even when we’re cheated, as happened in 1960 with Nixon, 2004 with Dino Rossi and 2008 with Norm Coleman, we don’t try to burn the country down because we respect the rule of law.

The first person to mention Hitler loses the debate
“The first person to mention Hitler loses the debate”
How about ‘they’re the real racists’ or ‘they’re the real KKK’?
> The first person to mention Hitler loses the debate <
That’s Godwin’s Law, as you probably know. Now here’s the interesting thing. Goodwin himself said it’s okay to compare Trump and other politicians to Hitler.
It’s a shame. But it looks like Godwin made his own law irrelevant.

This is the Donald Trump that moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and is bar none the strongest supporter of Israel of any president in history. The one whose daughter is an orthodox jew and whose grandchildren are being raised jewish. The same Donald Trump who has a town in Israel named after him along with multiple other places because of his friendship to the jewish nation.
Quite a few accomplishments for a Nazi, I'd say.
True, but these same people insist that Netanyahu and the IDF are the real Nazis, while Jewish Liberals narrowly define antisemitism as anything remotely related to Flyover country cultural Conservatism
The same way that Liberals attack religious Christians, but then turn around and praise the religiosity of Blacks and Hispanics
We are living in an age of demonic lies and contradictions
The first person attributing a Goebbels quote to Hitler starts losing the debate.
As a veteran of the United States Armed Forces who took the oath to defend this country from foreign and domestic enemies... I remember and always will remember that oath don’t matter how old I am... If we sit back and watch the destruction of this great republic and not correct and fix and expose to the light the truth of this great injustice.
All those that died in combat throughout our history died for nothing!!!
They died to preserve United States Constitution, and the Bill of Rights, and the pursuit of happiness to name a few...
I don’t care what color, race, gender you are millions of us served to defend her.
Right now she’s under attack from within and beyond these forces want this great republic destroyed...
The United States of America is the lighthouse of this planet, and if this lighthouse is turned off and destroyed Lord have mercy on us all...
If need be I am willing to fight to the death to defend her so help me God !!!
A reminder to those that love God, family, and country.

If you are referring to Democrats you don't lose the argument, you're just pointing out a historical fact. It's not an ad hominem attack when it's true.
My thoughts exactly. Goebbels, not Hitler, was the propaganda minister that coined that phrase.
You lose all credibility when your first sentence is demonstrably, factually wrong. I will not read any further when you start off with an obvious inaccuracy.
“If you are referring to Democrats you don’t lose the argument, you’re just pointing out a historical fact. It’s not an ad hominem attack when it’s true. “
Once you hear it several thousand times it gets kind of old. We get the picture.
Not everyone is as well read as you are.
