Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to "leak" into the public. One last shot at me.Are we living in Nazi Germany?

Seriously Don? A free press = Nazi Germany? Criticizing you = Nazi Germany? You little narcissistic POS.

1. You know when someone resorts

To Nazi comparisons there's a problem.

3. I've always avoided them until recently.

With what Don and the GOPeee is doing, it reminds me of how Hitler began. Fear, misinformation, bigotry, scapegoating, press control. To have him claim this because of free press and criticism goes beyond the pale.

2. It is a despicable insult to Holocaust survivors

Steven Goldstein, executive director of the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect, criticized Trump’s reference to Nazi Germany and called for him to retract the tweet.

“It is a despicable insult to Holocaust survivors around the world, and to the nation he is about to lead, that Donald Trump compares America to Nazi Germany,” Goldstein said in a statement. “The President-elect has denigrated our nation and its commitment to freedom on the eve of his inauguration. He must retract his tweet and apologize to survivors and to our entire nation.”

4. "one *last* shot at me"?

but, yeah, the martyr complex runs strong among russopublicans.


my mother is and her parents were holocaust survivors. they always told me, sure, it was bad when they took away their rights, their livelihood, their possessions, and evicted them; and it was certainly a big scare when they narrowly missed getting picked up by the ss to be sent to a concentration camp for a grim existence as slave labor before a miserable, nearly certain death.

but their real fear was getting dissed in the newspapers. thank goodness the underground was able to smuggle them out before that calamity could happen!

5. Par for the course. This is what he does. Accuses others of what he is doing.

He and his cronies are the freakin' Nazi types. He and all the RW shamelessly use propaganda techniques like this constantly, and the sad and frustrating thing is that they work! Too many people fall for this shit.

6. Not yet.

But if he has his way...it's anyone's guess. Then again, could he being "telling us" what is to come? Remember, this is the same man who said he would not commit to accepting the results of the election, and when pressed, said, he would, if he won. Perhaps he knew not to accept the results if Clinton won because he already knew the fix was in, and being the simpleton he is, let the cat out of the bag. That loud popping noise we all heard that night, wasn't jaws dropping around the world, as we suspected, it was his army of Russian handlers simultaneously facepalming themselves!

7. After January 20th

Yes, we will be under the authority of a dictator.

8. Fake News is anything he doesn't agree with

It has nothing to do with the truth

[BSdetect]

9. He is just a nasty little gobshite traitor.

He will do anything to get deals to cancel his debts.

He will destroy the US reputation re bonds in order to line hi pockets with actual cash.

[Dem2]

10. He's dangerously unwell in the head

We are so f*****

[colsohlibgal]

11. This Could Play Out A Number Of Different Ways

We are now living in times like no other in this nation.

We need more republicans to put country ahead of party......before it's too late.

[Bettie]

13. It's not a question

It's a threat.

Are we living in Nazi Germany? Nope, not yet, but soon.

Ugh...Imagine the Trumpkin Youth, in their shiny gold outfits with red ties and weird baseball caps.

14. it works like this...
