Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

I feel like he forgets we vowed to defend this nation against domestic enemies. Yeah my weapons are my voice and my vote instead of an M-16 (been out a long while), but I will still defend this country with every fiber of my being.
Seconded by a left leaning army veteran.
3rd'ed by lefty Air Force retiree
Obligatory :

“This vermin must be destroyed. The Jews are our sworn enemies, and at the end of this year there will not be a Jew left in Germany.” — Hitler, 1939
“We will root out the Communists, Marxists … and Radical Left Thugs that live like vermin within … our country.” — Trump, today
Not just that, Hitler also wanted leftist purged.. and did. Because leftists were the primary group opposing him.
The Nazis started with the leftists.
I think people are misinterpreting your comment as "the Nazis originated from leftists" versus what I think you meant, that the Nazis went after leftists first after getting into power.
Before. They were in street brawls with leftists early on and they consolidated power in the night of long knives by killing their left flank and “sexual deviant” members. When they came to power they built the camps for criminals and justified mass executions using the disabled and “sexual deviants”.

And sexual 'deviants'.
“Let’s find a middle ground with republicans” - Every out of touch undecided voter.
"Look, Trump wants 100% of the power and to send 100% of the people on the left into camps. Why don't you compromise by giving him 50% of the power and then he'll only send 50% of you to camps? ... Now he has 50% and wants 100%, you should compromise and give him 75%..."
(And I say this as someone who thinks compromise can be a useful political tool. But only when the group you're compromising with is bargaining in good faith. The Republicans of today - and certainly MAGAs like Trump - aren't bargaining in good faith.)

Pure hitlerism
But he's being taken out of context!1! /s
The threat from outside forces is far less sinister, dangerous, and grave, than the threat from within.
I never thought I'd agree with the Orange Bellend but here we are. I guarantee we're referring to different people though.
Thats always his thing, he tried to interfere with the election? the prosecution is election interference. He committed fraud in NY? The GA is the fraud.. Hes the worst threat of our times against democracy? No the people pointing it out are the actual threat, lmao. And so on its always somewhere in his whinny drivel. Impressive
I'd love for these asshats to be made to define what they mean by a "Communist", etc.
My very conservative mother (who I no longer speak to) once got mad at Amazon, as in Amazon.com the capitalist empire, and said that they were "the most communist thing ever." Communists are whoever makes you mad or whoever the alt right media claims they are. Or something like that.

Ah yes, more dehumanizing language from the person threatening to deploy the military against the people, and to put people he's dehumanized into massive camps. What could go wrong?
Edit: just a reminder that Hitler's rose to power by promising to make Germany great again.

People - most especially the corporate media - had better start waking the fuck up and stop presenting the election of 2024 as if it's a normal one. There is much more on the line than a GD horse race here.
This asshole means to do real damage to this country if he manages to slime his way into office again.
Corporate media like corporate everything else, is just fine with fascism as long as they can continue to extract rent from the peasants.
I doubt they'll be immune to Trump's rampage if he gets back into office. He'll be out for the blood of anyone who ever reported on him in a negative way. CNN, NY Times, MSNBC, etc will likely have their offices raided due to criminal prosecutions. The crime? Criminal defamation of Lord Trump.
But in true "First they came for" fashion, they'll keep acting as though this is all normal until they get rounded up. Then, they'll expect the rest of us to stand up for them. Sadly, by that point, we'll likely be in camps/prisons ourselves.

Corporate media won't profit from that though. They stand to gain a lot more by letting horrible things happen then fear mongering us into more views.
Genocide is temporary. Corporations are forever.
But seriously, everyone should be getting louder. Don't wait for someone else to expose hateful rhetoric
Hey familiar rhetoric:

And it's not like this is just Godwin's Law on a guy who just uses dark language, he's familiar with the rhetoric too:

How is this not inciting violence and hatred?
It's certainly making me want to commit violence. Just not against who he is intending.

Fuck the republican traitor filth. Come for me and I promise you it won’t end well. For you.
Might as well mock a physically handicapped person to cement your win while you're at it, Donny. We know how much your supporters love it when you mock physically disabled people.
