Hitler had much nicer head offices!



May I present "Castle Wolfenstein"

That's why comparisons always fall short. Nixon was a political professional of several decades. He surrounded himself with professíonals. Obviously he didn't feel the need to hire yesmen, such as his own son in law advising him on the Middle East of all places. In that sense Min comes closer, since that guy did hire his own son in law as foreign secretary - had him shot later on.

That's better, though a bit insulting to our fury cousins.

Take it this way, both were good motivational speakers.

This one is perhaps better,

People love their hyperbole, and will ride that dumbass shit straight into the ground.

Yeah conservatives would know all about that

I agree with other posters, how many times have we made this compression to Hitler with other world leaders? Countless times over the years. We all know this man is con-artist and just a overall narcissistic piece of shit! The internal laws of the U.S won't let him do most of what he promised, so I don't see what the big deal is with people letting fear mongers get to them. It will either wind up with him getting impeached and or serving four years. Think of this has a four year long comedy of A Night at the Roxbury.

A comedy doesn't have the global economy in tatters as a punchline. And that's what will happen. At the least.

          In a dark comedy it does, people like him will come and go. The U.S is in a cycle of the people who has not realized that they have buyers remorse. There will be so much resistance to anything he wants to do, that the lawsuits will build up. We survived two Bush eras, we can survive four years of "that guy" in office.

Don't make the mistake of thinking that the US is the only place that is going to be adversely affected by the Trump/Bannon triumvirate (yes, the two of them have enough ego for three people). Implicit in their irrational devotion to nationalism is economic protectionism. Normally, this wouldn't trouble me, but the scale of the US economy is such that a protectionist agenda there is going to send shockwaves through stock and commodities markets around the world. High tariffs, 'border' taxes, bribing companies to build plants in the US, decreasing investment in foreign markets - these things simply will do drastic damage to the global economy. And - like it or not - it IS a global economy, and there's no going back.

        I'm aware of this, You, your neighbor, I and everyone else like us don't have the power nor the resources to do anything about it. If we did he or she would of never have been elected. It's up to the people that have the resources to do something about it, we the people who reside in these country's lack power to control the majority. Even if a popular moment is to jump off a cliff, you can warn them over and over; but they will not listen to your warning. You can only grow a sense of humor and watch one after another plummet to their deaths.
