Trump calls political enemies ‘vermin,’ echoing dictators Hitler, Mussolini

[Libby von H]

"We will root out the Communists, Marxists, Fascists, and Radical Left Thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country, lie, steal, and cheat on elections, and will do anything possible, whether legally or illegally to destroy America, and the American Dream" --Donald Trump in a campaign speech

Holy Mein Kampf, Batman, Trump's been sniffing crazy glue!

“The language is the language that dictators use to instill fear,” said Timothy Naftali, a senior research scholar at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs. “When you dehumanize an opponent, you strip them of their constitutional rights to participate securely in a democracy because you’re saying they’re not human. That’s what dictators do.”​

​

Ruth Ben-Ghiat, a historian at New York University, said in an email to The Washington Post that “calling people 'vermin’ was used effectively by Hitler and Mussolini to dehumanize people and encourage their followers to engage in violence.”​

​

“Trump is also using projection: note that he mentions all kinds of authoritarians ‘communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left’ to set himself up as the deliverer of freedom,” Ben-Ghiat said. “Mussolini promised freedom to his people too and then declared dictatorship.”​

​

​

I seem to recall Republicans having a conniption when Hillary called them ''deplorables', but how silent they are when Trump acts like a second rate wannabe dictator.​

​

But Republicans love this type of rhetoric. It's not about making America Great, it's about owning the libs. Not a very good basis to run a country, and forget about unity, not with this guy.​

​

He's making plans, if he regains office.....​

Neither are true. There is no comparison.

Ok, please explain why they are not true. Were there not riots in 2020 that destroyed billions in property? Was there not a riot at the capitol?

Was i misreading all those stories?

There is no comparison.

Destroying property of other people is no comparison? As I’ve said before, as messed up as the J6 riot was, at least THEY were at the proper place, protesting against their government, compared to all those Floyd riots, where they “protested their government” by burning down random buildings that belonged to other people, blocking streets and roads and hindering random motorists trying to move about their day.

If I have all that wrong, do explain where.

It's always someone else's fault for the Trumpsters. One word caused all this, huh?

You people are so goddamn weak and helpless.

Yep. One word triggered you Dimwingers nationwide.

 

[Mac1958]

Yep. One word triggered you Dimwingers nationwide.

Actually it was seven years of comments, thousands of them, with rubes like you following along like mindless sheep.

You are in a cult. Dismissed.

The george floyd murder protests were not called by, planned by, directed by, or inflamed by the president of the united states nor by the presidential candidate Joe Biden, as Jan 6th was by Trump.

The George Floyd protests were protesting his death and police brutality.

January 6th was a plan by president trump to illegally keep himself in power, by keeping congress from their constitutional duty, on 1/6....election subversion.

No murder happened
President Trump did not plan, called to riot, direct a riot, or incite people to riot. Ray Epps did.
Why did it take so long for him to get a slap on the wrist compared to others?

Ray Epps, ex-Marine targeted by a Jan. 6 conspiracy theory, is charged with a misdemeanor in riot

Ray Epps, a former Marine who became the target of a Jan. 6, 2021, conspiracy theory, has been charged with a misdemeanor in connection with the U.S.

Trumps words concern matters that every decent person would wish for .

If OP disowns those sentiments it tells us everything we need to know about him , or it , if it is Chat nonsense .

The fact that those lovely guys Adolf , Joseph and Benito said the same or near same simply tells us that they had their good points and good days .

OP is just cheap bile and intellectually bereft of substance .

No decent person would ever vote for any of this buy thanks for proving you’re a facist.

"Vermin" is a good description for the dumbasses afflicted with TDS but I usually prefer "scum".

Vermin

Thanks for telling us who YOU are, but this weak ass attempt at deflecting from the facist threats and retaliation Donald Trump continues to promise the American people if they will just re-elect him President, has failed utterly.

What's laughable, is that you think you can distract from your facist, authoritarian attempt to overthrow the US government by calling people who support democracy, the Constitution and the rule of law, names.

Once again, you prove how stupid and gullible you truly are.

OP is a Russian bot made by PUTIN. FAKE NEWS.

Enough of your conspiracy crap! Who cares? He's a nobody....Trump planned and directed the 1/6 self coup de'tat, from calling protesters to D.C., from illegally without permit, sending them marching to the Capitol.... To the Trumper congress critters planned objection.... He's behind it all.
---------
President Trump oversaw a sophisticated seven-part plan to overturn the 2020 election and prevent the transition of presidential power.

1. President Trump engaged in a massive effort to spread false and fraudulent information to the American public claiming the 2020 election was stolen from him.
2. President Trump corruptly planned to replace the Acting Attorney General, so that the Department of Justice would support his fake election claims.
3. President Trump corruptly pressured Vice President Pence to refuse to count certified electoral votes in violation of the US Constitution and the law.
4. President Trump corruptly pressured state election officials, and state legislators, to change election results.
5. President Trump’s legal team and other Trump associates instructed Republicans in multiple states to create false electoral slates and transmit those slates to Congress and the National Archives.
6. President Trump summoned and assembled a violent mob in Washington and directed them to march on the US Capitol.
7. As the violence was underway, President Trump ignored multiple pleas for assistance and failed to take immediate action to stop the violence and instruct his supporters to leave the Capitol.

Joe Biden is not behind the George Floyd protests nor the rioters, nor is the democratic party.
