On Sunday (Oct. 27), Donald Trump held his latest Nazi-friendly rally in New York City at Madison Square Garden. While most of the outrage came due to guest speaker, Tony Hinchcliffe, calling Puerto Rico an “island of garbage in the middle of the ocean,” Trump’s rhetoric continues to be akin to Adolf Hitler’s when his Swastika crew held its own rally in MSG back in 1939.
To make that point the producers over at The Daily Show put together a montage of both Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler’s speeches to show just how similar the two men are when talking about their enemies, immigrants and political opponents. From referring to immigrants as “vermin” and suggesting they “poison the blood” of our country (America is literally a country made up of immigrants), Donald Trump seems to be copying Hitler’s entire playbook when it comes to churning out divisive and hateful rhetoric to gin up his hardcore MAGA base and fill them with anger and frustration against people of color.
If you actually keep up with Donald Trump this shouldn’t come as a surprise as his ex-wife, Ivana Trump, revealed that Trump kept copies of Hitler’s speeches by their bedside while they were married. Keep in mind this was decades before Trump ran for president as he and Ivana were married from 1977 to 1990.
Still, Trump’s hardcore supporters will continue to support their orange overlord regardless of what he says or does, but when people wonder how Hitler was able to get away with mass genocide while convincing a huge swath of the German population that he was doing the right thing, we’re living it.
