Serious question. Why do Democrats keep calling Republicans Hitler?

They compared Hamilton Fish to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Robert Taft to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Joe McCarthy to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Barry Goldwater to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Richard Nixon to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Henry Kissinger to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Ronald Reagan to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared George HW Bush to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Newt Gingrich to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared George W Bush to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared Dick Cheney to Hitler. They were lying.
They compared the Tea Party Movement to Nazis. They were lying.

And we are supposed to believe it this time?

I take the guy’s point. I can’t really comment on any of the guys before Bush Jr as they were before my time. I think the comparison for Bush is unwarranted. I don’t know enough about Dick Cheney. The Tea Party movement seemed ridiculous to me but I wouldn’t have called them Nazis (also don’t recall people calling them that).
Its still a stretch for Trump given the atrocities the Nazis committed which Trump hasn’t but on the flispide its no different when Trump calls all Democrats radical marxist socialist communists.

Ha yeah, that seems to be the common counter

Of course both sides interpret the terms differently. It's pointless name calling, both Democrats and Republicans want to live a decent life with a job that can sustain their family. It's the oligarchy that keeps putting the sides against each other by only focusing on the extremes. The democrats are coming for your jobs with their immigration policies, DEI, higher taxes vs the Republicans are coming for your job security, social security, unions.

Meanwhile the 1% keeps on enriching themselves watching the people fight over scraps. Red vs Blue states was/is a genius strategy. Divide and conquer. And I fear Canada is heading in the same direction now the NDP (the 3rd party) has been decimated thanks to Trump. Last election was a 'don't let Pierre Poilievre win' scramble, costing the NDP to push Liberal ahead.



Trump is just now starting to show symptoms of receptive aphasia, where you repeatedly mistake one word for another.

This is a big deal because aphasia is a common affliction with those that have FTD,  and this looks like it could be the start of Stage 3 of this disease. He will have a hard time with language, meeting with the press, speeches, and so forth in not too long of a time from now. Soon, the collective nightmare will have ended.

Dr. John Gartner: The world is watching “a fundamental breakdown in Trump’s ability to use language”
Experts say Trump's decline may be "caused by his incapacity to manage the stress caused by multiple indictments"

This article was written last year, then he started taking whatever they regularly inject into his hand and that helped for a while.  But now he's starting to get symptoms of this again and it's going to get worse, then it's going to keep getting worse until he dies.  Here's a shot of his hands.  It's just traumatic to the blood vessels to get something injected into the body, bottom line.  He could have been a vegan all of his life but he'd rather drink a bunch of diet soda and eat McDonalds every day, so his health choices have caught up and will not only giving dementia but killing him.

...Has Trump shown any signs of actually being religious? I've never heard of it, but I'm not American, so I'm sure I don't get all the nuances without really looking for them. If anything, my understanding that he's not exactly very religious has been reinforced on numerous occasions. All of this is to say that I seriously doubt this man is going to heaven, simply based on his actions and there being little signs of his faith.

Doubtful but even if he did it would probably be as a means to display a connection rather than actually connect with a higher power.  I might give some allowance that this behavior is one wanting to be with a higher power for a regular person, perhaps even a regular old narcissist.  But one evil like Trump?  Those kinds of people usually think that religion is for the weak, and the only reason to join would be to gain power.         

Also, i think that the whole point was that Trump is realizing that he likely doesn't have too many years left.

The guy is a fucking psychopath!
The people of Greenland and Denmark have been out protesting against a hostile takeover. Now the cockroach puts tariffs on all the countries that are opposed to US acquiring Greenland.
He was verbally attacking Denmark for not defending it well enough, then Denmark and some allies send troops there to show they can defend it, then that is also a problem. Just shows the PoS was again just lying all along.

Damn those Epstein files must be super incriminating if he tries to keep everyone looking at Greenland with the prospect of a world-shattering war!

Here in Europe, Bush was generally seen as a dumb idiot who was bumbling around and couldn't understand is actions. But the thing is, he feels more like Einstein when compared to Trump.

Trump's not on the same level as Hitler, but the Caudillo in Spain or Salazar in neighboring Portugal would be pretty fitting counterparts.

Yep, thanks for realizing how evil Trump can be or is.
