True or False: ‘Trump is a Nazi’
American Thinker ^ | 16 Jun, 2026 | John Perry

Posted on 06/17/2026 5:38:51 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Accusing President Trump of being a racist Nazi fascist anti-immigrant dictator has become so commonplace that it blends in with the scenery. Any time of day or night, news sources across the spectrum show people — many of them wide-eyed and foaming at the mouth (legislators, for example) — insisting that this is the case.

I keep waiting for a reporter to ask one of them, “What exactly is a Nazi? What are their defining characteristics? What has President Trump done that qualifies him as one?”

My guess is that they would say something like, “You know good and well what a Nazi is!” or, “If I have to explain it to you, you’ll never understand.” Like all radical liberals in the public eye, they’ve gotten by for years saying anything they want without being held accountable. They call the president names because they hear like-minded crazies do it and it sounds relevant. They actually have no idea what a Nazi is.

This knowledge deficit is not entirely their fault. They probably went to schools where no one taught them about Nazism or Fascism or D-Day or anything else to do with World War II (known in some quarters as World War Eleven). This is consistent with the rest of their education. They can’t do simple arithmetic. They can’t find France on a world map. They can’t name their own state capital. They’ve never heard of John Jay or Nathaniel Hawthorne. What they’re taught while sitting in a classroom for twelve years is a mystery.

The Nazi Party was officially the National Socialist German Workers’ Party.

Today’s equivalent is the Democratic Party. AKA the Socialist Party.

THe truth is, it’s not about Trump.

Not even a Conservative. Just a Republican

Fascists tried to rid themselves of the “socialist” moniker, but Mussolini kept talking about “social justice” and wealth redistribution, not to mention denying the existence of God.

No difference between fascists and communists; after all, Mussolini was a communist.

Those developments preceded the national socialist takeover, and they were not isolated nor endemic to Germany; a lot of them were the result of trade with the US and Britain.

Next, Nazis are anti-democratic. They crushed the democratic system in Germany, killed its defenders, and instituted one-party rule. Even the most casual look at America today shows we have a robust democracy. …
Oh, Johnny. Nothing about the USA being a republic?
A democracy is a political system in which the people periodically, by majority vote at the polls, select their rulers. The rulers then have absolute power to make whatever laws they please, by majority vote among themselves.

In a constitutional Republic, the people also, by majority vote at the polls, select rulers, who make laws by majority vote among themselves; but the rulers cannot make any laws they please because the Constitution severely restricts their lawmaking power.

The ideal of a democracy is universal equality. The ideal of a constitutional Republic is individual liberty.

In this century, great strides have been made toward the goal of subverting our Republic and transforming it into a democracy. One tactic of the subverters is subversion of language. By calling the United States a democracy until people thoughtlessly accept and use the term, totalitarians have obscured the real meaning of our principles of government.

Dan Smoot Report, 1966
If we have a robust democracy, then our republic still remains in danger. Communists and socialists are the biggest champions of democracy not just because of the facts stated above, but because, as Woodrow Wilson pointed it, “socialism and democracy are almost, if not quite, one and the same”—and history has proven that assertion correct.

Their opening gambit is slander and nothing they say can be taken at face value.

I am fairly sure that those accusing him have not and/or never will read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer.

“”Trump has always been a capitalist.””

***

Which is another, if not the main, reason why the commie left hates him.

The stupid on the left does run rampant. I had an exchange online with a leftist “woman” (at least that’s how they identified). I pointed out that folks on the left used to be the ones who were absolutists about free speech and pointed to the ACLU’s defense of the right of a Nazi group to hold a march in Skokie, IL. She first denied that such a thing ever happened. I sent her links that recounted the events. Her response? “This was about socialists, not Nazis” She had no clue that Nazi is shorthand for “National Socialist Party”! After explaining this fact to her, I never heard from her again.
