Appearing on CNN with Anderson Cooper, singer Linda Ronstadt compared President Trump to Hitler and says she sees “great parallels” between the United States now and the Weimar Republic in Germany.
Anderson Cooper:
I’ve read that you have read a lot about the Weimar Republic in Germany, and you sort of see parallels between then and now.
Linda Ronstadt:
Great parallels. I mean the intelligentsia of Berlin and literati and all artists were just doing their thing, and as Hitler rose to power, there were a lot of chances to stop him, and they didn’t speak out. The industrial complex thought they could control him once they got him in office, and of course, he was not controllable.
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, and we got Hitler. He destroyed Germany, destroyed centuries of intellectual history, forward and backward. People like Beethoven, Goethe, and Thomas Mann became jokes. They became Nazi laughing stocks.

I think a lot of people would be surprised to hear comparisons between what happened then and now.
Linda Ronstadt:
If you read the history, you won’t be surprised. It is exactly the same. You find a common enemy for everybody to hate. I was sure that Trump was going to get elected the day he announced. I said he’s going to—it is going to be like Hitler and the Mexicans are the new Jews. And sure enough, that is what he delivered.
Linda Rotstead? Wasn’t she a big star in the 70s? Linda, Shut the F*ck up, you lonely has been...
Exactly.

Would have been better if she’d sung to Trump, “You’re no good, You’re no good, You’re no good, baby you’re no good... “
No. I was answering post #1. Who referenced “hit me with your best shot”
A Pat Benetar song.
Sounds like she desperately needs a recording contract or a TV gig.
If you read the history, you won’t be surprised.
Guess her history book is missing a few pages par for a liberal only read the lines you like.
Another washed up,multi millionaire,”open borders” showbiz type.
She was once Governor Moonbeam’s celebrity girlfriend, also, so she’s predisposed that way.
odd though, isn’t it, how millions of Jews are desperately rushing across the borders illegally into Hitler’s Germany to get free medical care, free phones, free food, free education, and free everything else ...
I was aware of those things as well. However, I simply wished to point out that Hitler was admired among many of the upper classes in the United States at one time (including the elder Joe Kennedy).
Don't forget the Jew's have human trafficked underaged sex slaves and tons of heroin, cocaine and marijuana to buy off the German high command.
Cause that's how they roll. /s
There’s your proof that drugs do fry brains.
No one under 60 knows who she is.
They never say like Stalin or Mao
They killed many more then Hitler.
Maybe it is because the liberals admire Stalin and Mao.
Firstly, has she actually done anything in 30-40 years? Secondly, she’s obviously a lunatic.
I saw 2 Joan Jett concerts in the last 10 years.
Summerfest in Milwaukee and a couple years later at a WI county fair.
I was in college when she had her biggest hits.
Good times.
Oh brother. I used to think people like Rondstadt spoke like this to be obnoxious.
Not any longer. They are truly, truly stupid.
Oh, and why would Manderson Pooper have Rondstadt on to comment about President Trump?
The utter banality of leftist celebrity opinions.
yep.
