The President’s loud complaint to John Kelly one day was typical: “You
fucking generals, why can’t you be like the German generals?”

“Which generals?” Kelly asked.

“The German generals in World War II,” Trump responded.

“You do know that they tried to kill Hitler three times and almost pulled
it off?” Kelly said.

But, of course, Trump did not know that. “No, no, no, they were totally
loyal to him,” the President replied. In his version of history, the
generals of the Third Reich had been completely subservient to Hitler; this
was the model he wanted for his military.

Yes. Trump actually wanted our generals to be more like Hitler’s. Or at
least what he thought Hitler’s generals were. Yes he actually said it. So,
yes he’s a fascist.

There’s much more in the article that backs this up.

And people think I'm crazy when I tell his supporters here what they're going to have to do with myself and people like me.

Complete mental disconnect.

Hmmm....The FBI and other security organs, a presidential candidate, the US Congress,
the media...and as you know, the list goes on, attempted to remove a sitting US president
by producing and knowingly disseminated false information that he was a traitor. We were
repeatedly told by members of the Foreign Intelligence cesspool that they have SEEN THE
PROOF! ITS 100% TRUE!!! Sorry, the fascists self-identified a couple of years ago.

Sorry, an unsubstantiated rant by Trump which has zero impact on the nation hardly
reaches the level of our Democratic, bureaucratic and media fascists who actually
attempted a coup.

I always stop at lemonade stands. If kid goes to the trouble, I'm buying.
No exceptions.

I've never seen a Kool-Aid stand nor a stand run by an adult.

This is part where I ask where I'm incorrect.

“In short, the Clinton campaign created the Trump-Alfa allegation, fed it to a credulous press that failed to confirm the allegations but ran with them anyway, then promoted the story as if it was legFitimate news. The campaign also delivered the claims to the FBI, giving journalists another excuse to portray the accusations as serious and perhaps true.”

Now think of how many people believe America would be better off a Nazi regime.

true. I don't get why Repubs stick with the grifter Trump when they've got a perfectly respectable would-be dictator in DeSantis.

They don't want a President. They want someone to host the new American reality show to give them the order to open fire on "them".
