What the hell are people doing? We just saw two months of a heaping trash fire of a presidency actively try to wedge divides between people and pass unconstitutional drivel. This president is corrupt, with easily verifiable ties to a foreign nation that has for decades tried to influence the country's most influential positions by illicit means. He's an international embarrassment every single day his swamp ass is on that chair in the Oval Office. And today, even his biggest detractors are piling praise onto his lap for standing on a podium and reading. They're praising the same speech in which he announced VOICE as "presidential".

Let me just repeat that, they're praising the same speech in which he announced Nazi Germany tactics as "presidential".

You'll forgive me if I think this country is screwed. Because for the very first time, I can confirm with 100% certainty that it is. I could've seen us a way out of it had there been unrelenting, sustained opposition to his bullcrap and have the population and the press cut through the bullcrap for 2 years, and maybe, MAYBE in 2018 people would've woken up to reality to vote enough Democrats into office to begin a formal impeachment process. Maybe. But it's not gonna happen for the same reason you said. This was never a change of heart from the media, all they wanted was a boom-bust cycle, and this entire time this has just been another ****ty narrative they pushed just to turn it around and push the other way for ratings on both sides. It's all kinds of disgusting, the notion that they're doing this with this presidency that's pushing this agenda is disgusting.
Baseless hyperbole must be the new language of allegedly intellectual liberals.

You can't take anything the media says as fact either. They are doing the public a great disservice by using propaganda tactics to advance their own agenda.

Amen. They aren't journalists, they are propagandists.

Though they may need showers, they will not be gassed and will simply be sent home. Nazis outright killed Jews, Christians and gays. Nazis didn't capture, feed, then deport back to home. IMO, get a grip with fake news exagerations.

My first reaction was one of disdain. The percentage of crimes committed by immigrants is smaller than those committed by "real" Americans, and it's so typical of his bias to miss the main point.

You're correct, though, that much of what he says and does has Nazi echoes.

That's one kitten down....
Please elaborate...Gas chambers? Freaky medical experiments? Shipping people to work camps? Conquering neighboring countries? No, I want to hear specifics. Why Nazis and not Imperial Japan?

It sure seems like all these people are reading from the same page out of the same playbook. Way too similar in all their "complaints" and baseless accusations...

The way the left are acting is closer to something to be worried over.

To say you are terrified shows the hysteria the left are going through. Apparently "Post Election Stress Disorder" is a boon for therapists. Liberals are making them wealthy.

The current meme dictates they use call him a Nazi, and he is in bed with Putin.

Unfortunately, they started way over the top so what's left? These silly accusations will die out and they'll be left with an already irrelevant party withering on the vine.

Nazi echoes??? you should look at the liberals...they are nearly a direct copy of the Nazi's fascism

We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." --Adolf Hitler

simple things like 'nationalizing' corporations, nationalization of all trusts(banks),social security, emanate domain(agrarian reform) , removing the guns from the people, demand the end of capitalism, state(country) provided education, blame the jews (or the modern version 'the zionists'),.. 'fairness doctrine"( censorship of talk radio), redistribution of wealth).....COMMON GOOD BEFORE INDIVIDUAL GOOD .....Hitler made warm statements about Islam as a religion and political ideology.



DO THESE SOUND FAMILIAR, YES THE ARE THE TALKING POINTS OF THE LIBERALS, THE DNC AND MOVEON.ORG...............................THEY ARE ALSO A LARGE PART OF HITLERS 25 POINTS


Quote:
Hitler noted that one of the three reasons why Nazi Germany had warm sympathies for the Arabs was:
… because we were jointly fighting the Jews. This led him to discuss Palestine and the conditions there, and he then stated that he himself would not rest until the last Jew had left Germany. he noted Prophet Mohammed … had acted the same way. He had driven the Jews out of Arabia ….

Some Hitlerian analogies: Demagoguery, scapegoating minorities, lying, attacking newspapers, anti-Semitic attacks by supporters, nationalism, stoking paranoia, contempt for the courts, etc.
