We've all seen Trump's admiration of dictators, from Putin, to Kim Jong Un, and others from Eastern Europe, to South America. He not only admires them. He envies them. They each hold the absolute power he craves.
Many of his cohorts know that this is what he seeks and they stand with him 100%. Most of his voters, (cult), love the way he breaks all the rules and "owns" the Dems. They don't have a clue as to how incredibly dangerous and totally deadly he is, and they will stand by him under the most insane of circumstances.
I've heard it said that Trump keeps copies of Hitler's speeches, or a copy of "Mein Kampf," near his bed. Who knows if any of this is true? But it really doesn't matter. His recent speeches have included Hitler's words and phrases such as "poisoning the blood of our country," and calling his enemies "vermin."
This is a person who should never, ever be permitted to be in a position of power. Yet, here we are, a year out from next year's election, with him as the leading Republican presidential candidate.
If by some really miserable turn of fate, Trump ends up in the White House again, it's obvious to anyone paying attention that he intends to turn America into an authoritarian state with himself as "Dear Leader, "Fuhrer," or whatever he chooses to call himself.
Trump is both an uninformed and stupid man, who probably has no idea that Hitler was responsible for about 30 million deaths on this planet, and Stalin responsible for perhaps as many as 10 million. But what if he were to learn of those numbers? Do you think he'd stand for being Number three behind Hitler and Stalin? He's a man who must always be Number One. So you do the math.
Some may think this post to be extreme, or even unhinged. If Trump were to win/steal the White House, tell me that a few years from now. But first, think about the psychopathic, uncaring, mindless man we're talking about. Do you really believe he's incapable of destroying anything and everyone that stands in the way of his whims and desires? Do you really believe he wouldn't resort to our nuclear power?
