President Donald Trump brought his bombastic politics to a Boy Scouts event Monday in West Virginia, drawing cheers from the children gathered at the event and prompting comparisons between his rousing rhetoric and Nazi youth rallies from some liberal activists and journalists.
The president, the first sitting U.S. commander-in-chief to address the group since George W. Bush, used his speech to slam the "fake news," demand loyalty from administration officials and advocate for the overhaul of federal health care. He spoke to about 40,000 people at the Boy Scouts of America 2017 National Scout Jamboree.
"As the scout law says, a scout is trustworthy, loyal," Trump said, before adding, "We could use some more loyalty, I will tell you that." As he spoke, the crowd chanted "U.S.A" and applauded, prompting some critics of the president, who has the lowest approval ratings in modern history, to compare his rhetoric to the Hitler Youth, a wing of Germany’s Nazi party.

Mark me down as flabbergasted and befuddled that anyone could be allowed to write and publish such tripe as this article. BHO chose not to speak to the two Jamborees when he was President because the BSA had not yet been properly cowed to accept his worldview on the legitimacy and acceptance of homosexuals at every level of the organization as being aligned with the Scout Law and Oath.
The BSA had to abandon the use of Fort A.P. Hill as a Jamboree site due to pressure from the Pink Brigades on their favored legislative minions. Outside pressure to accept homosexuals as youth members and leaders continued until it was made BSA policy by two different nominally Republican leaders who thought the mostly-feminized standards of the business world were just fine for a male youth leadership training organization.
I wonder if the author realizes that the Hitler Youth was a government program and it was not voluntary.
Too things that the Left love.
It is the Left that has been turning the public schools into the Hitler Youth.
You beat me to it.
The correct way to present this sentiment:
“As opposed to his immediate predecessor, who shunned the Boy Scouts and all the positive qualities they embrace, President Trump continued the long-standing US tradition...”
Amazing speech especially the segment off Teleprompter where he talked about a successful businessman by the name of the Levine (?).
“prompting some critics of the president, who has the lowest approval ratings in modern history, to compare his rhetoric to the Hitler Youth, a wing of Germany’s Nazi party.”
Insanity.
Lol
Yes, some have said as such.
Pretty much every article from MSM has a lie of one sort or another.
Here she writes, “Obama was also a Boy Scout. Trump was not.”
Obama was not a Boy Scout. He was the equivalent of a Cub Scout (not a Boy Scout) in the Indonesian group.
Lol!!!

I have never seen anything like this in my 76 years. I know it is not spontaneous because I learned long ago how to recognize a deception campaign....so did George Soros.
I’ve been reading a lot of comments on WW2 documentary films on YouTube. Many of the commenters are Neo-Nazi Holocaust deniers who are rabid socialist and hate Trump but have nice things to say about Hitler.
So my question is, are they complaining or admiring?
Great speech! I can see why the left is going nuts over it. Trump highlighted the values the left has been trying to crush.My favorite quote:” I said we ought to change it from the word “swamp” to the word “cesspool” or perhaps to the word “sewer.”
The Boy Scouts today are so NOT Hitler Youth.
Either the author does not know the Boy Scouts, or they really haven’t read about The Hitler’s Youth.
The Leftards loved Obamajugend singing songs dedicated to Dear Leader. Sing them in the schools, sing them in the streets. Don’t be caught in public harboring negative thoughts about President Ubama.
Lies by omission are still damned lies.
Newsweak lies.
Stalinists lie. Always
Cristina...quit trying to communicate with adults thru the failed Newsweak magazine. Try hanging out in a kitchen, to see if you have any other skills that might prove useful to others.
Of course, according to the jazzed up resistance left,any group or institution expressing the emotion of patriotism is like Hitler.
In truth it is the left who are fascists according to history’s definition:( read it here)

That's what happens when you reject Aesop. The Boy Who Cried Hitler.
I hope they double down, as more normies are seeing what the left really thinks about us. They hate White people and they hate the West.
