Trump’s Rhetoric Echoes Hitler - Harvard Political Review

theharvardpoliticalreview.com Trump’s Rhetoric Echoes Hitler - Harvard Political Review

Trump’s rhetoric echoes the racism and dehumanization present in the rhetoric of Adolf Hitler. His language is uncharacteristic of a politician governing on behalf of all Americans irrespective of race, ethnicity, or citizenship status. It is the kind of talk expected from a totalitarian dictator.

Rhetoric, proposals, ideas and even the gestures of his collaborators. I think all he needs is a swastika tattoo on his ass, and even then some media would have qualms about calling him a fucking Nazi.

  Aww but he was just touching his heart and then showing support to his blind followers

  Obviously those articles are literal nonsense that previously claimed this.

They certainly used the NSDAP propaganda leaflet. Elections are not about facts, but about generating feelings and giving the masses the idea that only you can and will solve all their problems. There was lots of projecting as well. I just hope this doesn't cause too much damage to the US and the world. What you got now is a corrupt bunch of criminal oligarchs in charge with largely unchecked power. Elon frightens me more than Trump though. Trump can be played by stroking his ego (like the new secretary general of NATO realises he must do to keep NATO alive). Elon is higher on his new power than he ever was on keto. I think he and the heritage foundation just used Trump as a Trojan horse, with Trump being the populist piper. Imagine what you can do with $450 billion? Who's going to stop you?
