It use to be hyperbole, but Trump is the closest thing to Hitler we’ve seen.

[@USS-SNAKE-ISLAND]

It's a direct comparison now in terms of personality and motivation.

Hitler staged an insurrection and was sent to prison before he became dictator. At least Germany actually put Adolf in prison, even though he got released early. Seems the US is doing worse than Germany in the 1930's.

[@TheMangoMussolini]

I expect that out of politicians, but my pet peeve is the journalists...Bob Woodward, Maggie Haberman, basically everyone on the staff at The New York Post and The Washington Post, as well every major network and cable "news" provider, the list is virtually endless.

[@mark-ish]

​@@TheMangoMussolini Bob and Maggie have made it clear by repeated implication, donald is unfit. your interpretation is off, not their own judgements.

[@TheMangoMussolini]

@@mark-ish Thanks Mark, but I disagree. Woodward did an interview with Ttump at the height of the pandemic, and held back segments of it, which would have been crucial for the public to hear at the time, for his book later on. Haberman is the same, and worse. They talk out of both sides of their mouths, they gaslight and logroll their colleagues. I've respected Woodward since I was a teenager during Watergate, he has lost my respect now.

[@AdHernandez]

Maher does not pander to both sides. He's just a liberal that is fed up of some of the excesses of the so called "left" in the USA. It's very reasonable to call out the members of your "side" when they start becoming too extreme. This is what the GOP should be doing a lot more of.

[@gregbors8364]

To the last person to reply (whom I suspect is a paid troll and therefore don’t want to reply to directly): Bill Maher is a libertarian, not a liberal. He hates Democrats and Republicans pretty much equally but his differences with Democrats (“too woke”) are trivial at best.

Tillerson: "He Had to Tell President trump Every Day He Couldn't Violate Laws" “We did not have a common value system,” Tillerson added, according to CBS News. “When the president would say, ‘Here’s what I want to do and here’s how I want to do it,’ I’d have to say to him, ‘Mr. President, I understand what you want to do, but you can’t do it that way. It violates the law. It violates a treaty.’ ” “You know, he got really frustrated,” Tillerson continued, reflecting on what led to his firing. “I think he grew tired of me being the guy every day that told him, ‘You can’t do that, and let’s talk about what we can do.’”

(A pdf on my phone) He has front lines knowledge. Tell me one thing he says about Iran, Russia, or Venezuela about their intentions that you disagree with.

Ask Bolton who he is voting for in November 2024 and he will give you a merry dance. Such BS’ should openly campaign for Biden.

Julius Caesar did not deal the final blow to the Western Roman Empire. That honor was attributed to Odoacer of the Goths. I thought this dude was a military historian.
