Then and Now

 

“I swear by God this sacred oath, that I will render unconditional obedience to Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer of the German Reich and people, Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, and will be ready as a brave soldier to risk my life at any time for this oath.”  Adolf Hitler, August 2, 1934, Germany

“Raise your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can’t even breathe. That I will go out with my family, my friends. I’ll do it any way, I don’t care if I’m registered or not, I’m going to try to cheat like hell like they do. I am gonna go out, and I’m going to get my friends, my family and we are going to vote on November 3 or we are going to vote before that.”  “If you vote, you vote Republican. So help me God.”  Donald Trump, September 10, 2026, Dallas TX.

 

Does anyone else see the similarities?  I've been saying for months how everything MAGAs and Trump are doing falls directly under the NAZI playbook. 

I welcome any and all comments.

This isn't the first similarity, and it's quite scary, isn't it?

...but as Carola Bartz September 11, 2026 at 12:20 PM on my post yesterday. "It's getting worse by the minute. I read an article - I don't know where or what - comparing T not to Hitler, because Hitler was too disciplined which T is not, but to Idi Amin. That doesn't make me feel any better."

I saw the similarities from the beginning of his running ~He should have been impeached a long time ago ~ I can''t even see his face without having a negative reaction ~ I wonder what is happening to this country ~ sigh ~ Hugs ^_^

I've been seeing these traits in the "thing" since 2013. He was raised greedy and to break the law at every turn. Cheat any one, like his father and grandfather did. He once said, "If I run for office I will run under the republican party, they are the stupidest people around." He takes from hitlers book but he is stupid, and stupid people who think they are smart are very dangerous. He has many even more dangerous people telling him what to do and how to do it. The evil goes on day by day and if people don't think that it will get worse, then they have their heads, you know where. I have an entire family that thinks he is the best. There is no changing their minds. They can't tell me why they like him. But they stand up for him when I put facts out on the table. They actually say, "well I don't know about that." It is the standard answer. Or they get angry and start shouting stupidity at me. I don't allow it to go that far. It is a waste of my time and effort. What I can do is resits, protest, VOTE, and make sure my home is ready for what happens next.

I've been seeing the similarities for 10 years.
