Rules (interactive)

That's it.

Ok, no matter how horrible Trump is, comparing him to Hitler in insanity. Trump didn't have millions of people killed. As a Jewish person myself, that is insulting. But, if he had the chance to, would he?
I didn't compare him to hitler, i just said I think Trump has become a popular choice to pick if one had a time machine, and in some peoples mind they might pick him over hitler.
Please calm down.
Ok, I get that some people would think that.
Cool, glad we worked that out.
Have a good one 🤙
He seems to be pretty cool with supporting a genocide now
Speaking of war crimes, when I searched this, Bibi popped up. Interesting. I am surprised Trump didn't pop up either. Although it looks like Israel owns America now.
Epstein was on the payroll of Israeli intelligence. His job was to collect blackmail material on rich and powerful Americans.
Israel has not only the "Epstein Files", but pictures and video of Trump (and also some others in power in the US) raping, torturing, and killing young children. The threat of this blackmail material (as well as lots of lobbying and campaign donations) keeps them in line and has given Israel almost complete control over the US.
That is true, the tragic event with the school children being bombed, then blaming it on ai. That was a war crime.
It's insanity so far...
He tried to make the camps already. He is trying hard to do a genocide in Cuba (no idea on how successful, since the press can't go there anymore), he is killing lots of civilians on the Middle East just for the explosion videos, and he is supporting Israel.
If he could, there's no doubt he would be worse.
Yes. He would. He would literally have those tortures live streamed into his living room. He loves violence & war. The only reason that trump has not surpassed hitler in the genocide and inhuman abuses of people, is because we still have a society that is not going to fall for this crap. Trump would be worse than hitler. Hitler was (wrongly) trying to rid the world of a group of people. Trump is just getting revenge on every single thing he does not like. There is no one group to target, he will turn on anyone at any time. Because he is a mentally ill broken child and utterly psycho.
It has me rethinking. Has he killed millions? No. Would he? It is possible.
With the cuts to USAID, domestic benefits, disaster relief, climate initiatives and such, I'm not entirely sure we can objectively say he hasn't killed millions. Maybe not loading people to the showers, but the consequences of their policies have to be tallying up.
Trump global aid cuts risk 14 million deaths in five years, report says (from 2025)

Don't forget COVID.
Just a reminder, in his first term he was more than willing to let everyone die of Covid. Thankfully there were adults in charge and we made it through.
Yet.
Remember, the Nazis tried deporting all their unwanted minorities first, too. That's why the gas chambers were "the final solution," not just "the solution." Trump still has plenty of time to match or exceed Hitler, if we let him.
So this point will become relevant if the hypothetical scenario you imagine in your head comes true? Great argument.
He's more akin to Stalin. Trump has an incompetent indifference to the US population. If he had acted earlier during COVID he could have prevented at least 100K unnecessary deaths. And then he goes and gets the vaccine in secret. Sure he hasn't killed as many people as Stalin yet but given his policies on climate change it's very possible his actions will lead directly to more deaths than Stalin and Hitler combined. Only time will tell and our descendants will not judge people like trump kindly.
