Well. No points for subtlety.
It still flies over the head of a lot of republicans.
They just don’t know that, it’s practically a direct translation of hitler’s rhetoric- and they’ve never believe it, even if you show them hitler’s massive speeches.
Many Republicans would support Hitler today. They like his ideas if you replace Jews with immigrants.
You don’t have to replace Jews with anything…
No, but I think most Republicans have groups they hate more than they hate Jews.

That seems a bit harsh, I would have given him at least 10 minus points
Why do all of his speeches sound like they were pulled straight from the nazis?
"Donald Trump appears to take aspects of his German background seriously. John Walter works for the Trump Organization, and when he visits Donald in his office, Ivana told a friend, he clicks his heels and says, “Heil Hitler,” possibly as a family joke.
Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist. "
Oh yeah, that’s why. Thanks vanity fair.
No way he is reading.
“Let me tell you folks, I read. Big words, small words, I read all kinds of words. Hell, I’ve read thousands of words just this morning. They call me the greatest reader of all time, folks. Some of the toughest books, magazines, I read them all. Not like that fool Ron DeSatanist, I bet he hasn’t read a single book in his life. Sleepy Joe? Probably forgot how to read just like he forgot how to be president. But me, I read more than anyone in the world. I am, what some folks call, a “reader”. And that’s why, folks, you can trust me, you can donate to me, because I’m a very smart guy, because I read, you know, smart people, they read. It’s just what I do, I read. Now if you excuse me folks, I’ve gotta go start reading.”
The sad part is I can’t even tell if that’s a real quote or not at a glance.
And 100% pass on Turing test if it’s AI generated.
amazing
Downvoted for realism
I mean he did all but use the phrase “blood and soil.” No surprise he’s copying off shitler’s notes.
What did those folks say back at the Unite The Right rally? The one that Trump said had good people on both sides at?
I was thinking exactly the same thing and then I saw your comment. I bet even Trump can’t believe how far he has gotten basically saying the same type of crazy shit Hitler used to say. Trump is really calling to the baser instincts of a disturbingly large group of people.
It is incredibly dangerous, and so bizarre to witness it happening again, not as a historical narrative, but in real time.
There’s a reason Germany banned shit like this. It worked then, it works now and it’ll work in the future.
True.
Again, he’s not subtle.
He’s literally Dwight from that episode where Jim teaches Dwight how to deliver a speech.
He isn’t smart enough to know the historical paradigm of dictator’s speeches himself.
I wanna know who his Jim is.
Blood alone moves the wheels of history!!!
His speeches sound like nazi fanfiction because he’s trying to get elected by americans
I agree with Trump. Ever since the first European settlers came to the North America, the area has been in heavy decline. From polluting rivers to the point where they could be lit on fire, to the last president who was a fascist.
You’re full of absolute shit, Europeans were just the peanut on the turd. Ever since proto-Asians crossed Beringia North America has gone to hell, killing the sabertooth tigers and hunting all the really fucking cool megafauna to extinction. There used to be giant sloths here, and sloths are so chill.
Yeah, king. Motherfucking North America was like Africa, except less hot.
Woolly mammoths, giant armadillos and three species of camels were among more than 30 mammals that were hunted to extinction by North American humans 13,000 to 12,000 years ago, according to the most realistic, sophisticated computer model to date. The news is reported in the June 8 issue of the journal Science. …
Some of the mammals that became extinct are:
-
woolly mammoths
-
Columbian mammoths
-
American mastodons
-
three types of ground sloths
-
glyptodonts
-
giant armadillos
-
several species of horses
-
four species of pronghorn antelopes
-
three species of camels
-
giant deer
-
several species of oxen
-
giant bison
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2001/06/010608081621.htm
Until now I wasn’t aware that giant armadillos were a thing I really wish existed.
Don’t forget about the giant beavers (Castoroides ohioensis)!
That IS a giant beaver. Oh dear.
Not likely wiped out by humans because they were probably already gone, but oreodonts are pretty cool too. They basically looked like pig dogs. And we don’t know if they were related to pigs, camels, or hares. Which is a funny verity of possible relatives.

Pour one out for the giant sloths.
nobody talks about the real natives, the chainsaw-claw pumas
So it’s the “proto-asians” we should all be angry at 🤔

Can this guy just drown in the fucking tub already, Jesus Christ.
Wrong kid died
That running gag had me crying.
I fully expected him to have already died on the shitter pushing out a McWopper
It’s lead and microplastics that are poisoning the blood of our country
And lead. Don’t forget lead.
And hate. But worst of all: lead.
Hate may just be a symptom of lead.
And fracking wastewater.
wrong! microplastics poison our bones.
It’s our only layer of defense in the skeleton wars!!
meh, I’ll just get an Adamantium skeleton upgrade
There are quite a few Native Americans who would agree.
Political candidate tells nation of immigrants that immigrants are BAD. Film at 11.

Isn’t he married to an immigrant?
Slaves and mail-order brides are OK.
No, not like that.
What Trump is referring to non-white immigrants.
Baron is an anchor baby.
Yes, and look what he’s done to the gene pool. The man speaks from experience.
Do you want hitler, because that’s how you get Hitler.
No, he’s not charismatic, not that far from grave and doesn’t have any ideology or potent supporters (like officers, aristocrats).
While intelligent people don’t think Trump is charismatic, he is undoubtedly considered to be charismatic by stupid people. He has situational charisma - when he’s ranting about some weird idea that he think his supporters will glom onto he’s considered to be very charismatic despite the written versions of his speeches sounding like the ravings of a man who just met Cthulhu.
Your other points are 100% though - he is WAY older than Hitler was at his peak, and he has this terrible knack for throwing his sycophantic and powerful supporters under the bus which leaves him lonely in his power. I think he likes it that way.
Someone needs to do the Hitler meme but with a trump speech
Trump is racist. Big fucking news. His supporters don’t care about racism. They are racists and they see racism as a good thing.
It’s not just racism. It’s straight up Nazi ideology.
“ Trump is the son, and grandson, of immigrants: German on his father’s side, and Scottish on his mother’s. None of his grandparents, and only one of his parents, was born in the United States or spoke English as their mother tongue. “
You know, he may have a point.
Two of his three wives are immigrants. His in-laws benefited from chain migration. His third son is an anchor baby. None of his supporters are capable of recognizing these facts.
Ha, jokes on you for thinking him and his followers think white immigrants are “immigrants”. They use that word because it’s the only acceptable one, but it’s clearly not what they are referring to.
Trump is the son and the heir of a dynasty that is criminally vulgar. He’s the son and heir of nothing in particular.
When whatever conflagration that MAGA causes is over, those who survive will have a duty to record what Trump and his supporters were. No Milgrahm experiments to explain why people reflexively obey authority. No excuses about how Trump was so charismatic and could sway and persuade.
Nobody is being tricked or persuaded. Trump is paradoxically the most transparent politician in American history. He’s no great persuader. Listening to him speak is like watching a drunk man cross an icy street. The truth is LOTS of Americans fucking love fascism! They want people to be harmed and killed. They’ll suffer hardships, and take losses to make it happen. They raise Trump on their shoulders because he tells them what they want to hear. And they’ll happily hoist someone else up should Trump stumble.
Remember the Dominion lawsuit against Fox reviled that the network presenters were cowed and intimated by the viewership. All these years people like Jon Stewart told us that Fox news radicalized Memaw and Poppop. Maybe all along it was the deplorables that radicalized Fox.
At some point, people will be standing in the rubble of American cities asking “how could this happen”? Tell them Americans wanted it; Americans voted for it; and Americans gleefully held hands and jumped into the abyss.
People want to believe that deep down, most people are good. I believe this to be a lie people tell themselves. No, most people are awful and would fuck over anyone they don’t know if they do much as think it will make them better off.
People are good, until they aren’t. That’s the trick: Creating environments where people become more awful, more quickly. Like upgrading your barracks in a RTS game.
We’re all still animals following basic instinct. When we feel that our “herd” is threatened, we get ugly fast.
It’s really easy to play on those feelings.
I think you’ve got it twisted. People do awful stuff because they think it’s good. The Nazis thought Jewish extermination was helping. Theirs a Documentary on Netflix about German soldiers tasked with shooting Jews. For most of them it was a horrible ordeal. One of the biggest motivators for continuing was the thought that shirking one’s “duty” meant your comrade was going to have to do it for you. (one of the rationale for the concentration camps was to spare the death squads from PTSD)
I mentioned the Milgram experiment. If you take psy101 they’re going to tell you that that experiment proved that humans will harm each other for the sake of an authority figure. But that’s not true. Repetitions of that experiment that replaced the lab-coat guy with one wearing a military or police uniform and you went from the vast majority willing to harm people to the vast majority refusing. People weren’t obeying authority, they were volunteers who wanted to help science. They thought continuing a harmful experiment was their duty.
You’ve probably heard that quote from Fred Rogers about how when something tragic happens, “look for the helpers”. Well, it turns out that many of the people who cause tragedy think they’re helping.
Yes, Trump supporters honestly believe that the vast majority of undocumented migrants are criminals and terrorists. They honestly believe that the Democrats are trying to create a Soviet style dictatorship. They honestly believe we need a strongman to rid the country of people who are genuinely trying to destroy it. I know a bunch of them; they think they’re helping.
That’s the kind of uneducated opinions that Trump proclaimed his love for.
Bruh you cannot apologize for Fox. Their on-air people lie to anyone who will listen every God damn day, why would they stop lying just because they’re under oath?
“Americans”
Trump didn’t win the popular vote before and he won’t win it this time either. When he wins he’ll win with a minority of voters, with likely less than 50% of Americans even casting a ballot at all. It’s a very specific subset of Americans that are throwing the rest of us off a cliff.
Immigration is one of the best solutions to fix rural America.
So of course rural Americans are going to be against it.
What do you mean by this? Just asking, I’m from rural America and now live in a large city.
Plenty of space and opportunities for revitalization. All they need are people living there.
I am 100% in favor of expanding immigration with the stipulation that additional immigrants must live in rural areas.
additional immigrants must live in rural areas.
So they can get lynched?

Immigration is the the only solution for all of America. The next few generations are going to be smaller than those that preceded them. Unless you’d like to see massive deflation and the economy reduced by a third or more (you don’t) immigrants are the only workable solution. Japan is staring this problem down right now and has chosen xenophobic and racist policies; it is headed for catastrophe and the world will get to watch in the next two decades what refusing large-scale immigration does to a nation with a strong economy and shrinking population.
Ireland too iirc, as it became an Alex Jones talking point for a while that someone in Ireland said they needed 4 million immigrants to prevent similar issues. The person was just using that as a measure, and iirc it’s quite a while in the past so not sure if it’s the same today.
Why do you think it needs “fixing” anyway? Rural America is great already.
Removed by mod
Definitely not based on infant mortality rate.
It’s not as bad as what people who use the term ‘flyover states’ think.
It can still be greatly improved, and immigration is the way to do it.
Just drive through rural America and you’ll see dead town after dead town. Mainstreets with less than 50% of their buildings occupied is the norm.
It doesn’t have to be this way. On average, each additional person contributing to an economy bolsters it rather than detracts from it.
Wasn’t his father an immigrant?
No. Fred Trump was born in NYC. Trump’s grandfather, though, was an immigrant.
no no no white people can’t be “immigrants”
spoiler
/s just in case
His mother definitely was. She was from Scotland.
Nah, she was an expat.
/s
Just like Trunp himself, who is one of the leading expats on multiple subjects such as business and politics!
Seems like your joke didn’t quite land… But I liked it
More like Trump and his pals are poisoning the country.
