Wait, what? Thats a little bit of a stretch, don't you think? Under Hitler, 6 million jews and millions of others were imprisoned, starved and slaughtered. I know some Jewish people who are fairly offended by this comparison. I know at first people were largely being hyperbolic, but its become clear that many actually feel this way. He aint Hitler guys, not even close. Thats kinda ridiculous.
Hitler didn't genocide 6 million Jews before coming into power. Are you saying we should wait until the Republican Party genocides 6 million American minorities before making the comparison?
