The Biden campaign fiercely denounced Donald Trump following his caustic remarks aimed at immigrants Saturday, saying the former president “parroted Hitler.”

“Tonight Donald Trump channeled his role models as he parroted Adolf Hitler, praised Kim Jong Un, and quoted Vladimir Putin while running for president on a promise to rule as a dictator and threaten American democracy,” Biden-Harris 2024 spokesperson Ammar Moussa said in a statement.

Trump on Saturday ratcheted up his already inflammatory rhetoric on immigrants at a rally in New Hampshire. “They’re poisoning the blood of our country,” the former president said. “They’ve poisoned mental institutions and prisons all over the world. Not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world they’re coming into our country from Africa, from Asia.”

    ‘All great cultures of the past perished only because the originally creative race died out from blood poisoning.’

    Is this referring to “races” as we see it these days, or to the root races of theosophy as described by Madame Blavatsky?

        There’s a difference. It wasn’t a Tucker question, in my opinion. They were asking for a time reference, because, while bad either way, knowing chronological context makes a huge difference in understanding the whole.

        Knowing and understanding are equally important

            Well kinda yeah. If you know where the hatred comes from you have a better chance to turn it around.

              Your favorite Nazi: “and I was just living day-to-day calling for the death of minorities. Then one day on lemmy some one thought to ask, ‘which variety of racism do you suscribe.’ That right there changed everything for me. Someone really wanted to understand why I have murderous rage. I still have that murdous rage but I got to talk about it too! So remember everyone my ideas deserve your consideration.”
