Well, look at all the civil rights violators and opposers who have been empowered to run for office now. Scott Lively. Arthur Jones. Joe Arpaio. Roy Moore. David Clarke. I mean..... so many people have become empowered because America is becoming an openly and proud-to-be racist and hateful country.

Trump confirmed that it's a lie in the second article you posted.

After Trump and Brenner changed topics, Trump returned to the subject and reportedly said, "If, I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them."

We knew this already, Hilter spoke passionately, full of hatred and controlled people through fear, lies, threats and blackmail. Trump only gives a damn about power, the power dictatorships have, dude is constantly attacking our allies and sucking up to dictators and the GOP is just fine with that since a dictatorship under trump is a dictatorship under the GOP

Why would Trump admit to having books about Hitler?

...Not that his cult would care; they would actually praise him for it.

I mean, no matter what Trump says you won't believe him. If Trump got on Twitter right now and made a tweet that said "Global warming is real and we need to reduce pollution." you would call him a liar.

Dont bother.

These are the same people that want to discredit guys like Jefferson and washington and tear down statues cause they owned slaves in the 1700's when the majority of people did.

His speeches were the same "bigly" incoherent gibberish spouted out by Trump. He rose to power through literal assassination. He conveyed a decent amount of charisma and enthusiasm through his speeches but the actual text of those speeches is literary garbage in spite of the content.

On top of the yeah sure okay, I'm sure THIS disparaging story is true. This time. For the 32nd time this week. You've also got the unmitigated impartiality of a "released" strategist, and his ex-wife. No axes to grind here. I'm gonna need a little more than a twitter post by the accuser as proof THIS time, lol.

No, we don't.

His passion was undeniable, but the actual content of his speeches varies wildly. People like to pretend that people just saw him on the streets and elected him God-King or something, but the reality is that the people around him had been pulling strings for a long time. There is the Reichstag fire, which his party probably started, which he blamed on his enemies. There is the Night of the Long Knives, where he killed anyone in the party that might challenge him. There was the criminal intimidation by the brown shirts/SA, who would go around beating up people and starting rowdy rallies to garner support. The Weimar Republic had a huge hand in his rise to power, and IIRC, it was largely just because they believed it would pacify him and his party. He also outlawed any political opposition, meaning that anyone who disagreed was an outlaw.

So yeah, the actual content of his speeches is 'ehhhh', whereas his passion and his party's penchant for killing or intimidating anyone who opposed him was what got him into power and let him stay there.

He lifts some of his rhetoric straight from the Hitler playbook, so this wouldn't be surprising.

Also, why would you need to read the content of speeches if the only thing Hitler had going for him was passion?

Yep. His election strategy was basically Hitler's minus genocide or the jews. He targeted perceived grievances ramped up the rhetoric and used muslims/mexicans as scapegoats

I mean. Hitler didn't exactly campaign on killing the jews and the whole holocaust didn't start til after they started putting people into concentration camps. I hope that the situation with the child immigrant doesn't move the same path. But we're pretty much seeing the exact same shit that Hitler was doing as he was gaining power with Trump.
