How much Hitler is Donald Trump?

[Silver]

Maybe 'Muricans are ignorant enough to vote Trump into office. Goodness knows, media hype does its best to ensure we are entertained by silliness rather than informed of anything serious.

[ApeNotKillApe]

Not really 'the greatest', just the most notable since the invention of mass media.

Donald Trump can be compared to Hitler in many ways. This isn't an unfair comparison like comparing Obama might be, this is comparing what Trump wants with what Hitler did. 

Why has it always to be Hitler? Hitler was Hitler and as such a singularity for too many reasons to mention here. I find it asinine to always come up with the big bad bogeyman when someone proves to be a dick or whenever someone takes issue with certain things. Marx, Lenin or Stalin are second in line.

Trump is a dick and seems to be an idiot on the side. But what he stands for is still a far cry from what Hitler had in mind, right from the start.

Fer fuck's sake - WHY do people insist on comparing everyone and everything they don't like to Hitler?

You know who was like Hitler? Hitler, no one else.

I must have missed Trumps plan for death camps in the US. Hitler planned the genocide of millions of people and started the greatest disaster in the history of the world. Anybody who compares someone to him is an asshole.

Actually Hitler didn't plan the death camps until a good length into his power. Before that he mainly did things like what Trump is describing of doing, like giving Jews/Muslims special identification, "deporting" thousands of Jews/Mexicans. You do realize that officially Hitler was deporting Jews, not killing themselves, right? Or maybe you need to read up on history.

If what Donald Trump actually says sounds like what Hitler had to say, there are going to be comparisons.

Yeah, the comparison is so rediculous. Nobody who knows anything about Hitler or Nazism could make this comparison. Wanting to deport people=hitler? What about Australia's last prime minister? He must have been like hitler too. Or the millions of people who want to deport immigrants in the US, millions of little hitlers. That's one of the stupidest arguments I've heard on here.

Sigh. What your seeing isn't commonakities between trump and Hitler, they're very different. But trumps brand of republican does have a striking similarity to fascism. That is what you see.

I'd say Trump is a 0.3 on the Hitler scale, 1 being Hitler (2 being RoboHitler). Certainly not a nice man, but nowhere near as bad.
