General Kelly confirmed it

There is a part in the beginning, about finding a goal to work towards, you are glossing over.
I cannot even believe this is a point of discussion. Hitler preyed on the German peoples’ base fears when the country was at its weakest. He was a mad man and a lunatic. His own people tried to assassinate him once they realized how insane he was. He made many terrible strategic blunders during WWII that led to the demise of Hitler’s Third Reich and lost Germany the war.
I mean, why stop with Hitler, though? Vladimir Lenin transformed an entire nation and Joseph Stalin was a very strong leader. In terms of charming men, no doubt Ted Bundy is the guy every aspiring playboy should try to emulate first and foremost.
JFC. The fact the MAGA idiot brigade is trying to normalize admiration of Adolf Hitler is very telling. Unbelievable.
Oh, and yeah, when deciding whom to believe first, John Kelly or Donald Trump, that’s just so difficult to navigate. Might have to hedge our bets on that one. 🙄
The fact you can see calling someone evil a dozen times isn't "admiration" is telling.
Real life neo nazis.
Yep like I've said for years. MAGA is Taliban. Taliban is MAGA.
It's worse than that, I think. If the feds aren't monitoring this site, it's time they started.
Nope. You've attacked me tonight several times for no reason. Don't be a whiskey or fran, imbecile. Goodnight to you. Thanks for voting for team 🇺🇸
My guess is that most of MAGA nation and the collective reaction will be to claim fake news, Kelly is lying, or just ignore it. Brief mention and move on type of thing.
Most people and almost certainly the campaign will not take Whiskey's approach in this thread. I think this speaks more to Whiskey's particular affliction than representative of MAGA as a whole.
We'll see, I could be wrong.
Non magats and sane Republicans, you're all on the same boat. Quit the in fighting.
Even for that hypothetical scenario -- Hitler? Really?
Ultimately it's about context. Unless Trump and whomever else were engaging in a rousing discussion about Hitler's strengths and weaknesses as a leader, it's not going to be a positive to have the president invoke his name as an example of anything positive. In fact... it just might make people go WTF. And it'll be all the more concerning if it comes from the mouth of a president that had a history of expressing admiration for authoritarian/strongman type leadership.
From the article:
That reads as though it was something Trump would quip about from time to time. Firmly in the WTF camp for me. And part of a broader trend in behavior by Trump surrounding authoritarian type figures. (he doesn't seem too bothered by them)

He's not attacking you. Don't be weird.
Normalizing Hitler. When they somehow find a way to vote for Trump in 2024, inevitable.
It just takes so much brain power to admit a guy who pulled a country out of a depression and got millions of people working towards a common goal might have had some leadership abilities......
Grow the **** up.
The guy was evil, he had more leadership ability than 99% of the people who have walked the earth. His goal was evil, but there is a reason not everyone can take on the world.

Chis, he ain't attacking you buddy. He's got a brain and good heart. Perhaps conservative but considerate. There are like 7 losers on here. Let them live in their echo chamber.

I think people—fake news media or otherwise—are so desensitized to the Trump insanity that the latest dumb shit with Trump is always just another day that ends in y.
I don’t read anything anymore from the MAGA idiot brigade, but I am sure all of them have contributed thoughtful, well-reasoned input to the discussion.
Being able to lead people does not equate to doing good things. I can't believe I'm even having this conversation
Like I said you can achieve middle ground. He's a good lad as are you.
I've been right for years sounding the alarms and served the country. Of course I am.
Of course Hitler was able to do things leaders of democratic societies weren't able to do. Communist Russia saw some incredible economic success under its authoritarian regime for a while too.

You ever heard of a blind squirrel finding a nut?
Dude found a few:
Rearming Germany
Examine how the world responded to Hitler’s first acts of military aggression, including Germany’s remilitarization of the Rhineland.
Now, I've called the guy Evil 10x anyone else in this thread.
