MSNBC’s morning-after coverage of the Super Tuesday primary elections hinged towards the dramatic at times. Morning Joe panelist Mike Barnicle compared the need to defeat former President Donald Trump to America rallying to defeat Adolf Hitler during WWII.
The panel discussed Trump’s acceptance speech Tuesday evening, during which he described the apparently grim state of the country. Barnicle described the message he was sending as “stunningly pessimistic,” but a point co-host Joe Scarborough made a bit earlier about the American spirit during WWII got him thinking:
I was reading again, rereading Rick Atkinson’s trilogy, the first part of his trilogy on World War II, [An] Army at Dawn. And on the morning of June 6th, 1944, a young lieutenant, James Rudder from Texas, led the Second Airborne Battalion up the sides of a cliff called Pointe du Hoc, a straight-up cliff, 125 feet to a German pillbox. And he went right at the Germans, right at the Germans. Fifty percent casualty rate. Why did they do it? They did it because we were Americans, and we were there to save Europe from Hitler.
And now all of these years later, we have to get together as a country and save the country from the threat that Donald Trump proposes. Donald Trump actually has said, we all know this, that he could solve the war in Ukraine in one day. And we know how he would solve it. He would say, “Vlad, it’s yours.” He would turn it over to one of our fiercest enemies. That’s what we have to watch out for. That’s what we have to protect. We have to protect the country that we love, that we believe in. Not the country that he describes so negatively.

Oh how these MAGA Nazis despise the new American culture!
MAGA!
Make America Gay Again!
(sarc)
Are these people that insane and delusional or that craven and dishonest?
Ahh. Ghey! 🤡😂
Trump is Hitler. Rinse and repeat. The desperation reeks. Actually, it’s a good sign. They’re scared to death.
What’s Mike barnicle so afraid of?
This is called chit posting.
Amusement purposes only.
The lying with such conviction is super impressive and most likely pathological.
Every GOP POTUS in my lifetime has been the next hitler.
Their cravenness and dishonesty comes across as insane delusions. And if it looks like insane delusions, then it probably is. But to them it’s also a paycheck in a system that keeps their craven and dishonest paymasters’ paymasters happy as well. So they don’t care how it looks. Which is a form of craven insanity too.
Well, at least Barnicle is almost aptly named.
He is about as useful as a barnacle.
Well this #ing stunt is compensated by Comcast — and the multinational Comcast hates Constitutional America.
These people are exhausting.
That’s humor. The diagonal sash. Wheee
Really funny
Mike Buttlicker said what?
Yeah, except it’s Trump saving American from Biden, who is probably worse, because at least Hitler acted on behalf of his country.
“We have to protect the country that we love”
The country they’ve been trying to turn communist for 50 years. I’d hate to see what they’d do to a country they hate.
I think you’re on to something there.
lol
I know.
Yes and yes. The fact that they constantly compare Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler shows how ignorant of history they truly are.
