Linda Ronstadt compares Trump to Hitler, says Mexicans 'are the new Jews'
Fox News ^ | 12/30/19 Published 1 hour ago | Joseph A. Wulfsohn | Fox News

"Singing is what brought your family together," CNN anchor Anderson Cooper replied. "Yeah," she chuckled.

"So, now that you don't have singing..." Cooper followed.

"Now, I have to be careful because we've had so much taken away from us by this administration that I'm not willing to let them take my family relationships away," Ronstadt continued. "My family -- the parts that are Republican were fairly rational Republicans. We don't have that in our current White House."

It's unclear exactly when the interview took place; the network released clips from the sitdown over the weekend.

The Grammy-winning artist went into detail about the "great parallels" she saw between the rise of Trump and Nazi Germany and how both leaders, according to her, were "uncontrollable."

"By the time he got established, he put his own people in place and stacked the courts and did what he had to do to consolidate his power," Ronstadt elaborated. "And, we got Hitler and he destroyed Germany, he destroyed centuries of intellectual history forward and backward."

Cooper replied, "I think a lot of people, though, would be surprised to hear comparisons between what happened then and now."

"If you read the history, you won't be surprised. It's exactly the same," Ronstadt doubled down. "Find a common enemy for everybody to hate. I was sure that Trump was going to get elected the day he announced, and I said it's gonna be like Hitler, and the Mexicans are the new Jews. And, sure enough, that's what he delivered, you know."

I’ve had no respect for Rondstad since she start bad-mouthing our country 15-20 years ago. As far as I’m concerned, she had shut up now.

I have no clue who she is.

She was probably the most popular American female singer of the 1970s. She was also California Governor Jerry Brown's lover.

Do people who say things this stupid actually understand what Hitler did to the Jews? Is Linda Ronstadt really this dumb?

Sorry, Linda, but no one is going around killing Mexicans.

Mexicans aren't being killed on an industrial scale like in the 40's, but I don't think it's accurate to say, 'no one is going around killing Mexicans,' either.

Cartels are going around killing quite a few Mexicans it was at least 33,341 in 2018, and it was a lot more this year. It's not Hitler-scale, but it's a lot in peace time. Someone should point this out to Miss Ronstadt.

George Cukor was most assuredly not the director of Star Wars, and I doubt he ever dated her. He was 47 years older than her and I don't think he liked girls.

I met her. She was really nice and funny and we had a thing going on until I had to take my wife home. She kissed me.
I got a ton of kissing that night.
Linda was a nice sexy girl with a wonderful voice but messed by drugs.

Such a beautiful voice projected

Hitler eliminated any semblance of law in Germany by terror, abolishing the right of appeal,compelling defense attorneys to pay the costs of the states prosecution against their clients, Hitler also created "Peoples Courts'' which ordered among other things compulsory sterilization, the ''mercy death''(killing) of the mentally ill, the handicapped, and the elderly, made marriage between Jews and non Jewish a serious offense and tossed all Jews out of the legal profession. Ronstadt is not only historically ignorant her comparison of Trump to Hitler is revolting. She's an asshole.

Give her a choice between Germany and Mexico, then send her back.

She’s proof that drug abuse causes brain damage and propagates socialism.
