Beck: Trump's Use of Nationalism, Populism 'Dangerous Combination,' 'Makings of Adolf Hitler'
Breitbart ^

Posted on 01/22/2016 10:46:43 AM PST by springwater13

"That's why you should be freaking out," he added. "Look, we have nothing against Donald Trump as a man. We don't. It's just this is a very dangerous combination and I have been warning against it since Fox. I said keep your eyes open because it will come. The pendulum will swing the other way and it will be bad. The only other thing you have to add to that - he's talking about populism and nationalism. If you add socialism - populism, nationalism and socialism, you have the makings of Adolf Hitler. You don't somebody who is a nationalist, a populist and has any kind of socialist or nationalizing the banks kind of ideas. Not a good idea, not a good idea."

All politicians use hatred. Trump just happens to use it best, for the time being.
Hatred is the most accessible and comprehensive of all unifying agents. It pulls and whirls the individual away from his own self, makes him oblivious of his weal and future, frees him of jealousies and self-seeking. He becomes an anonymous particle quivering with a craving to fuse and coalesce with his like into one flaming mass. Heine suggests that what Christian love cannot do is effected by a common hatred.

‘Moral’ ‘Don’t turn on Trump’?

It’s a primary battle - NOT a dictatorship.

Okay, perhaps Beck is actually on to something.

If your first-choice candidate is Trump, then you are among the minority here on FR. I've been keeping track; out of 1,030 FReepers who stated a preference one way or another, a little over 54% have stated that Trump is ONLY their SECOND CHOICE if a choice at all. Trump is the first choice of less than 46%, the clear minority on FR. If you don't like it, too bad. It is what it is.

Because you are ignorant of history, you are willing to vote for a very bad and dangerous risk while scorning and deriding ANYONE politically incorrect enough to point out the warning signs that history is repeating itself.

You're all for political incorrectness -- except when it offends you. Then you demand political correctness and label as a "mentally deranged loon" (and I've never particularly cared for Beck) the conservative who indulges in TRUE political incorrectness.

I find Hitler comparisons generally over the top.

I agree it is hyperbolic, but the point is true. Rah Rah populism + Nationalism + Big Gov is a very dangerous combination.

YES I DID, and I will say it again. I remember 1932 Germany. Too late......they got what they voted for but did not want. Too late. I remember 2008/2012....same/same......we are living with the monster they hoisted on us........

I think you should keep saying this, that Trump is basically Hitler. And keep saying it. Again and again.

In fact, I will help you post it.

It is VERY effective campaign strategy for your guy Cruz. Genius. Brilliant. Persuasive.

Not that you need another example, but darrell Issa deserves to be on your list of failures.

Re>Who has breathless adoration for Cruz????

It appears you do. Who has breathless adoration for Trump? No one they support the candidate of their choice. Trump is winning and your Envy is apparent. Denial is not a river in Egypt.

Ok, but just clarify that I did not say Trump was Hitler. I do suppose you would be respectful of that, YES?.

CRUZ has the chance to hit a GRAND SLAM by rejecting BECK and this particular comment and NRO en total.

I would go full CRUZ if he showed such PATRIOTIC GUTS!

Take down Beck in one swoop on the National Stage right along with all the fraudulent elites at NRO who never mounted a combined campaign against the Marxist Muslim or even against Hillary and her several crimes.

Yes, but to be fair, he’s a Major Idiot.

His promotion to Lt. Colonel should be coming any time now.

Trumps breathless adoration crowd can be seen at any of his rallies.

Wow, I sure must be hitting a BIG nerve.

Annie envy is a sin...

So is anger, Ken. So I will resist the anger I feel seeing you WRONGLY and falsely attribute the sin of envy to FReeper annieokie.

What is Trump's biggest appeal, again? Speaking to the anger so many Americans feel for Washington? Desire to "get back" at the GOPe -- doesn't that smack of vengeance?

Let's see ... anger, vengeance ...

... you were talking about sins, again, ICKen?
