In high school history class
#1
In high school history class
and throughout my schooling experience, to be honest, I remember one thing very clearly.

When taught about how Hitler won over everyone around him, there was one major consensus: no one saw him as evil.

History tends to repeat itself and people remain ignorant.

I am not stating that Trump is our new Hitler. Rather, Trump is worse.

No, he is not the anti-christ, though if one was to be materialized through the perception of logic rather than fantasy, it would be Trump.

Trump is worse than Hitler?

Potentially, but that's an egg you'll have to wait to hatch before you make such strong statements, methinks.

Trump will be the greatest President in American history.  

Hitler's problem was that he thought that he was a military genius but he was really just a corporal.

And T.Rump is a narcissistic egomaniac. Not much difference.

Really? You see that as Hitler's problem? Really? I should have thought that the whole ethnic cleansing thing stood out as more of a 'problem' than delusions of military grandeur.

He killed millions of potential soldiers. How many of the jews would have fought for nationalism?

So, you see Hitler's military ineptitude as more of an issue than his programme to 'exterminate European Jewry'?

It was Hitlers problem that he was inept.
It was the worlds problem that he was a Trumpish psychopath.

So, if Hitler had been more 'ept', ALL the Jews in Europe would have been incinerated?
