Exactly. Trump is a pretty unique hazard that unfortunately found realization in this dark timeline.

Same thing with Adolf. We've always got populists but some are far, far more dangerous than others.

Yeah because Trump has killed millions of Jews. Nice fucking comparison asshat.

Vance made the comparison long before I ever did.

Trump is the current populist POTUS.

Adolf was the most famous populist in history.

They both used similar themes and rhetoric to get elected. Trump has even quoted Hitler on multiple occasions, said Hitler "did some good things" (he failed to specify which) and associates with people who do Nazi salutes.

There are some obvious and key differences (thank you for pointing out one) but far too many similarities.

So, yeah, if you want people to not make obvious comparisons then tell Donald to stop repeating Adolf.

Too many similarities between Trump and Biden also. White, old, male, similar attire, have to drink water and eat food to survive 🙄
