That's what this Reagan-Era WH lawyer is telling you.
Alan Charles Raul was associate White House counsel under President Ronald Reagan and general counsel of the Office of Management and Budget under Reagan and President George H.W. Bush. He is board secretary of the Society for the Rule of Law and a lecturer at Harvard Law School.
Congrats. What does that have to do with your idiotic attempt to compare our current situation with late 30s Germany?
This is Team Blues problem. You are 100% in the right here. Where you lose people is hyperbole, emotion, and condescension. The very important discussion is lessened by the childish way it is presented. Of course, you are the absolute far ending of that spectrum Jojo , but still………
You've really never heard the parents that confront school board members called "domestic terrorists "? Wow
Jojo the historian. You just can’t help yourself. The amount of insecurity and emotion in you is striking. It’s why people look at you and Scruddy the same way. Two sides of the same coin.
Clearly, Ronald is not an idiot.
The problem is “Nazi Germany” charges have been tossed around liberally (pun intended) for a long time now. I agree there are alarming parallels, but you need to be more specific so you don’t come across as hysterical and hyperbolic.
Track the steps, one by one, and we're fully on the way there.
Purging civil servants and replacing them with lackeys is one of the final steps.
Vance has already suggested (in numerous quotes) ignoring the Judicial Branch.

There are disturbing parallels, as I mentioned.
I don’t want to believe concentration camps and WWIII on our turf is the end result.
It’s not worth it. Historical and economic context have escaped Joe. Ironically, many on this board remind me a of a hitler quote.
“I use emotion for the many and reserve reason for the few.”
Is that what I'd posted?
Do you understand all the steps that took place, prior to WWII?
To the point Germany's government was completely overwritten and taken over by fascism?
Sigh. I will start in 1909 instead of 1938. Context matters jojo.
Yes, I do, Joe.
What are you predicting is going to happen? Trump doesn’t respect our Constitution or system of government. He admires dictators and wants total control of the government
What is Trump’s end game that is going to be in lockstep with Hitler to the point of…whatever you believe is going to happen?
He's already shown you.
Are you not paying attention here?
Do you fully understand what happens when an AG no longer upholds Rule of Law, but selectively prosecutes people for their political positions? Or for "falling in line" with the President and drops all charges?
Yes. It would.
While WWI and all the costs pushed on to Germany certainly helped, Hitler was able to take over his government, entirely, because people allowed him to do it.
Just like the GOP is now. They have the power to stop it; there is a day coming where they will be powerless to stop it.
Again, it’s sad that smart Americans won’t connect the dots because they don’t want to believe it. This is going to be as close to Hitler’s Germany, without the concentration camps, but very much like Putin’s Russia. BefI am dead we will see some of the same falling off balconies they have in Russia. I suppose this will just be laughed at too.
I said there are parallels. As far as the AG/justice department weaponization charge is concerned, I heard the same thing from Team Trump during the Biden presidency.
The greater point is what is Trump’s end game that leads you to believe Trump is on the path to be in lockstep with Hitler until the bitter end? Are we going to invade sovereign nations? Are we going to round up as many brown people and undesirables as we can and stuff them in gas chambers?
How far do you see this going? That’s what I want to know.
I don’t think they are but we are definitely going to be silenced. I’m not convinced bad things won’t happen to these non violent humans at Gitmo either…because evil men are sending, again, human beings, there.
This, too. Guys like bins think we just jump to concentration camps, bypassing the path that got Germany to them. We have a president who has no compassion for people less than him. If they die they die. He will never shed a tear.
Biden somehow managed to get every Attorney General of every State in the Union to look the other way on his immigration flights.
This is nothing by comparison.
When they start prosecuting Biden and his Confederates, lets revisit.
