It is grossly disrespectful to the victims of the Holocaust to compare ANYBODY to Adolf Hitler, unless they have engaged in mass genocide.

Who reads The Washington Post?

[Kaslin]

That’s what I want to know too.

[Donglalinger]

Hey Kaslin,Didn’t you compare me to Hitler earlier today and got your post yanked??

[Kaslin]

Well, what do you expect from the left?

[LostPassword]

If us Trump supporters agree that Trump may be like Hitler can we stop hearing that he may be like Hitler and start talking about why someone who may be Hitler is preferable to anyone else the party is offering?

Trump is Charlemagne? Wow, that is flattering!

[Inyo-Mono]

Vladi­mir Putin in Russia, Hugo Chávez in Venezuela, Yoweri Museveni in Uganda, Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Turkey — all found ways once in power to restrict opposition, muzzle the media and erode checks and balances.

Just like Obama.

[Kaslin]

Actually he’s probably more comparable to Mussolini, or so some say.

[Kaslin]

excellent point

Charlemagne Biography

This is the cathedral where he is buried

[Aliska]

I read it for some things. They have the best comments next to ABC. And some articles are just interesting.

But when I see anti-Trump articles splattered all over the front page, I get mad.

They even report the bad news on Hillary but do seem to favor her; there is a Cillizza who writes most of the articles, but the bad news one for her yesterday was written by Goldman.

Then after so many clicks, I get locked out and asked for subscription. I get around that, too.

On February 22, Tim Graham at NewsBusters observed how Post "Acts of Faith" writer Joseph Loconte had compared Trump to medieval emperor Charlemagne, who "In 782, in the Massacre of Verden ... ordered the execution of 4,500 prisoners, apparently for their refusal to convert to Christianity."

You know who else gave Charlemagne grief for that? ... Hitler!

Himmler had a memorial built to the victims.

But seriously, how is this even an issue? Trump hasn't advocated killing large groups of people (so far as I know).

[DesertRhino]

Oh well, even if Trump turns out to be Hitler, he likes me so he doesn’t want to put me in a camp. Im an old, white, veteran, middle class American who doesn’t like illegals flooding in and is wanting America to win.

Ill be in the backyard flipping a Trump steak, waving at the trains as they go by. lol

[Twinkie]

Hitler-y?

Macaca for the Wash Post

It is grossly disrespectful to the victims of the Holocaust to compare ANYBODY to Adolf Hitler, unless they have engaged in mass genocide.

It is grossly unfair to the German people to compare the Adolf Hitler of 1945 to that of 1933 when he first gained power. So in reality, one looks at the events and politics that led to Hitler being elevated to power in 1932. Germany, once the greatest industrial power in Europe, was desperate, beaten down, and impoverished, looking for answers. A profligate government had ruined the economy. A leftist cabal (the Spartakusbund) of Marxists had taken over Berlin and made a moral cesspool of it. Many of the people fell for a strongman, who promised to make Germany great again (literally).

How different, really, was that situation to ours?

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

The Washington Post is correct. I support Donald Trump because I am EVIL.

Glenn Beck is correct, and so is Robot Romney. And so is Hillary. It’s a VRWC.

This pathetic republic is doomed!

If others wish to join Super Villains for Trump, here is our world domination pamphlet ...
