Compared Nikki Haley to Eva Braun.

I didn't realize that was a 'nazi' reference.

I thought it was saying she and her husband got freaky in the sheets. Go figure.

earlier this week, John Burton, the chairman of the California Democratic Party, accused Republican running mate Paul Ryan of using the "Big Lie" technique of Hitler propagandist Joseph Goebbels.

Pubs are trying to invoke Godwin's law because they ain't got nothing else.

As an anonymous person on the internet I plan to continue making such references where historically appropriate. (Though not just for the fun of name-calling)
