I've always acknowledged that Trump was very knowledgeable about bankruptcies.

Which is a great capitalistic skill if you are planning to bankrupt America.

You guys really don’t get it, do you? Calling him a “Nazi” doesn’t register at all…. Despite his history as a CEO and President. What’s your explanation for all those who have worked (closely) with Trump over his career who have in the past year, spoken to his inability to und err stand the job he is ;re) seeking. One or two folks is one thing, but the long list of folks who KNOW how he works, doesn’t bother you?
I just don’t get it. Except there are a lot of fools living in America who don’t have clue as to what this country was founded upon. Not an iota.

Gerald Ford followed Nixon as president and as a Republican who was called a fascist. In 1974, a member of the American Civil Liberties Union criticized Ford for his lack of punitive action against Nixon.

“If [President] Ford’s principle had been the rule in Nuremberg,” he said, “the Nazi leaders would have been let off, and only the people, who carried out their schemes, would have been tried,” the ACLU said at the time.

Additionally, in the Gerald Ford Library Museum, a document describes an interaction with a woman in 1975 in which Ford was harassed and repeatedly called a “fascist” and a “fascist pig.”

Surely, over a decade of accusations and allegations of fascism never coming to fruition would stop Democrats from calling Republicans Nazis, fascists, or comparing them to Hitler, right?

Wrong.

Former President Ronald Reagan was the next target in the Democrats’ line of unsubstantiated accusations of fascism.

Rep. William Clay (D-MO) stated that Reagan wanted to “replace the Bill of Rights with fascist precepts lifted verbatim from Mein Kampf.”

The Los Angeles Times cartoonist Paul Conrad drew a panel depicting Reagan plotting a fascist putsch in a darkened Munich beer hall. Harry Stein (later a conservative convert) wrote in Esquire that the voters who supported Reagan were comparable to the “good Germans” in “Hitler’s Germany.”

American Enterprise Institute scholar Steven Hayward highlighted another incident in which the intelligentsia and academia also contributed to the Reagan fascist comparisons when John Roth, a Holocaust scholar from the Claremont Colleges, commented about Reagan’s election:

“I could not help remembering how 40 years ago economic turmoil had conspired with Nazi nationalism and militarism — all intensified by Germany’s defeat in World War I—to send the world reeling into catastrophe. … It is not entirely mistaken to contemplate our postelection state with fear and trembling.”

Former President George W. Bush might have been the Republican politician who faced the harshest and most vile criticism before Trump. Bush was regularly called every dirty name in the book, from racist to Nazi to fascist to war criminal. There are many examples of linking Bush to Hitler, Nazis, and fascists.

In 2012, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), the same Romney so many Democrats love today, was also linked to Nazis and fascism. One delegate from Kansas (at the time) said Romney was a habitual liar and likened him to Hitler “while criticizing the accuracy of Romney’s campaign talking points.”

A chairman of the California Democratic Party compared then-vice presidential candidate (and eventual former Speaker of the House) Paul Ryan, again, the same Ryan loved by many Democrats today, to Nazi filmmaker and propagandist Joseph Goebbels. Link

Instead of just doing the opposite of what Democrats say, try assessing Trump for who he really is. His behavior often leans authoritarian, if not outright fascist. Basing your views on simply countering liberal media isn’t exactly the strongest foundation for critical thinking.

Thank you for echoing the latest right wing talking points in order to normalize your boy's outward affection towards Hitler that is noted not by liberals, but by the Dear Leader's own Chief of Staff and other high ranking Republicans in his administration.

Yeah, and they always talk about Trump's dangerous rhetoric too... Biden/Harris even called for rhetoric to be toned down after the first assassination attempt.

Trump has said NOTHING to the level of directly calling an opponent fascist/Nazi.

It's not even comical, it's disgusting.

Unrelated: I saw the Biden/Harris admin we successful against Virginia, reinstating the non-citizens and dead people into the voter rolls for this election... Um. Congrats?

Watch this clip and then apologize to the board. One of the MOST regular Trump schticks is calling the political opposition "fascists". JFC.

Another dishonest, full of shit post from one of the MAGA posters around here coming home to the Donald in the week before the election.

You're citing Rando's from those past examples, it never came from any actual leader of the party at any time and was never part of the "message" of any Democratic campaign for President.

"A delegate from Kansas" as one of your examples? LOL's.

Meanwhile in this election cycle besides the Democrats properly calling Trump a fascist, we have Donald Trump's former Chief of Staff, a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Lynne Cheney, probably dozens of other Republicans calling Trump a fascist.

I already voted, you goddamed idiot and it wasn’t for the Donald. You can bet your dumb ass on that. One day if you find your brain and a sliver of integrity, you may be able to open your eyes and see that our politics is riddled with shitty dishonest, hypocritical people across the entire spectrum.

Sounds like the exact structure of a climate alarmist's arguments. Bad weather happened. SUVs are being driven. Therefore, SUVs created bad weather. Here's your paper straw.

If that were all the thousands of climate scientists and decades of serious research had come up with, I'd agree.

Can you see the difference? Let me repeat, just in case. Thousands of top scientists; mountains of serious research.

That's my ante; what's yours?

The Dear Leader says it's a hoax.

So . . . who did you vote for?

Why not Trump?

Why do you so consistently seem to support and defend the nonsense from the right - to the extent that people find it hard to believe that you didn't vote for Trump.

What am I defending from the right? I am pretty much always on offense against the left. I am never defending Trump or MAGA and I’d say pretty close to 100% of my posts about them are very negative. You don’t pay attention and like with a lot of other stuff, make shit up and try to pass it off as reality.

As I said from very early on, I wrote in Mitt Romney. Something that yesterday, you defended doing.
