“J’accuse Donald Trump”

Watching the candidacy of Donald Trump, I am continually struck by his resemblance to a man who came to power in a far-off land nearly 85 years ago, a historical epic that I had naively hoped was well buried in the past.

Consider the following:

•Adolf Hitler held gigantic rallies, where he inspired millions with rousing speeches. Donald Trump holds gigantic rallies, where he inspires millions with rousing speeches.

•Adolf Hitler talked about making his country great again. Donald Trump talks about making his country great again.

•Adolf Hitler promised military victories. Donald Trump promises military victories.

•Adolf Hitler had a loyal and overweight henchman, Hermann Goering. Donald Trump has a loyal and overweight henchman, Chris Christie.

•Adolf Hitler blamed a specific group of immigrants for all the nation’s problems (Ed: Jews weren’t immigrants — Close enough!). Donald Trump blames a specific group of immigrants for all the nation’s problems.

•Adolf Hitler vowed to build a wall (Ed: Wait a minute — when did Hitler talk about a wall? Shhhh! Nevermind!) Donald Trump vows to build a wall.

•Adolf Hitler was a teetotaler. Donald Trump is a teetotaler.

•Adolf Hitler had a hobby that he enjoyed very much (painting). Donald Trump has a hobby that he enjoys very much (golf).

•Adolf Hitler had an opulent home in the city as well as a country home, “The Berghof” in Berchtesgaden. Donald Trump has an opulent home in the city as well as a country home, “Mar-a-Lago” in Palm Beach.

•Adolf Hitler was involved with a woman from Central Europe, Eva Braun. Donald Trump is married to a woman from Central Europe, Melania Knauss.

•Adolf Hitler had a pact with the Soviet Union from 1939 to 1941; Donald Trump said nice things about Russian president Vladimir Putin.

•Adolf Hitler required all non-Jewish, German civilians to greet one another with a rigid right-arm salute, while exclaiming “Heil!” or “Heil Hitler!” Donald Trump has asked audiences to promise to vote for him by raising their hands, which is the PRECISELY same thing.

•Adolf Hitler was a vegetarian; Donald Trump has never smoked.

•Adolf Hitler forcibly annexed Czechoslovakia. Donald Trump tried to merge two casinos in Atlantic City.

•Adolf Hitler invested hundreds of millions of dollars on German aviation to upgrade the Luftwaffe. Donald Trump has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in private jets.

•Adolf Hitler never had any children, but if he had, they would probably have been blond. Both of Donald Trump’s daughters are blond.

•Adolf Hitler’s favorite food was liver dumplings, a dish very similar to meatloaf. (Ed: They’re not remotely similar. No one knows that.) Donald Trump’s favorite food is meatloaf.

•Adolf Hitler had light hair and a moustache. Donald Trump has light hair and a moustache. (This has not been definitively established, but some who knew Trump in the 1970s recall that he had a moustache, albeit a fuller, longer one.)

•One of Adolf Hitler’s idols was World War I fighter pilot Manfred von Richthofen, also known as “the Red Baron.” Donald Trump’s son is named Barron. (It’s spelled differently, but sounds the same.)

•Adolf Hitler liked Eva Braun because she was very attractive; Donald Trump’s wife, Melania, is very attractive.

•Adolf Hitler vowed to exterminate entire races; Donald Trump has vowed to exterminate ALL Mexicans and Central Americans. (Mr. Trump has yet to call for this, but if he had, it would be an amazing parallel and speak very ill of his character.)

•One of Adolf Hitler’s favorite desserts, not his No. 1 favorite, but one he enjoyed several times a year, was chocolate ice cream. Donald Trump has talked about formerly liking Oreos. (Recently, he vowed never to eat Oreos again because Nabisco moved its factories to Mexico. This does not negate his previous position on the cookie.)

•Adolf Hitler was known for erecting concentration camps – surrounded by walls to keep people out, particularly Mexicans. (Ed: That’s not true.) Donald Trump wants to build a wall.

•Allowing Adolf Hitler to come to power was a horrible mistake for an entire nation; allowing Donald Trump to come to power will be a horrible mistake for an entire nation.

In conclusion, [dramatic music plays] I have covered American politics for 30 years. For the first time in my life I am afraid for my country. Very afraid. Very, very afraid. Very, very, very afraid."

I have been so blind. The anti-Trumpsters were right all along. No wonder they are so hysterical in their condemnations of The Donald.

VDare is a notoriously anti-Semitic and extremely racist website.  There are past posts here about this site, yet a select few still use the site to source material.

This is stupid of the author and a new low for the member who posted it.  I guess he only takes the high road when it suits him, otherwise, he's right down there in the swill with the rest of them.  There is a word for people like this: it starts with 'h' ends with 'e' and has 'ypocrit' in the middle. 

And for the record, I don't think Trump is even close to Hitler.  The most they share is a skill at rhetoric, but it's been shown since antiquity (the ancient Greeks) that this is a skill that is highly learnable, this similarity is not very informative. 

Trump is a racist, but so were plenty of Americans in the 30s and 40s, so that simply means Trump is behind the times, woefully behind the times, but it doesn't make him Hitler.  Trump is full of idiotic ideas such as trade wars and 45% tariffs on countries he doesn't like.  Trade wars have been around ever since there's been trade so that's not even worth mentioning as a point of similarity.  And so have stupid tax ideas. 

Trump is simply a moron with a skill for rhetoric and a certain base slyness, brought to a fever pitch, that lets him succeed in business.  He ain't a leader, not by a long shot.

In fact, Trump has one, and exactly one, thing going for him: he isn't Hillary.  I don't know if I'd call that the apotheosis of leadership, but apparently the Trumpkins do.

I have a personal rule to never read articles that shill two books at once.

One book, fair enough. Being an author is a hard enough task. Two is just being greedy.

Btw, contrary to the silly opinions of this poster (so what else is new), "This is stupid of the author and a new low for the member who posted it.  I guess he only takes the high road when it suits him, otherwise, he's right down there in the swill with the rest of them.", VDare is not "swill", and is neither racist nor anti-Semitic. Rather it is decidedly not PC, very decidedly, a fact which seems to get his and Honest(?)John's panties very much in a bunch.

Just some threads with insight into VDare.

The National Review has called it 'shockingly racist'.  So has the Rocky Mountain News.

It publishes tracts from Jarod Taylor, a noted white supremacist... as well as from Samuel T. Francis, who the Anti-Defamation League also found to be a white supremacist. (both wrote extensively on the 'war against the white race' and found 'the mixing of bloods' to be 'revolting'.)

I won't even mention what the SPLC says about them, but it's far less kind.

Also, here is the Wikipedia entry on them.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/VDARE

BTW: I'm not too pleased with your personal attack and outright lies about both the site in question.  For the quote you attribute to me was never written by me.

VDARE is a racist site:

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/VDARE

Damn good choice for showing what VDare is really like, Sparky.

"VDARE is an "editorial collective" website run by batshit paleoconservative Peter Brimelow."

"The site appears to be mainly a platform for Peter Brimelow's anti-immigration views, which veer frequently into playing footsie with overt white nationalism; the other topics are window dressing."

"Hilariously, a few of their writers seem to be fish out of water there, writing about civil liberties advocacy, opposition to war and globalization, and critiques of government power, oblivious to the mainly immigration-related and white supremacist tilt of the site."

"The site is, however, a really good fit for Malkin's wingnuttery."

"But look, they've got non-white employees, so they can't possibly be racist!"

"And add to that that VDARE itself claims that Cubans are really "white" unlike most Hispanics, meaning they don't have any employees that are either a) black or b) that they themselves would consider Hispanic."

Wow, talk about objectivity. Talk about fairness. Talk about impartiality. Sparky, well done, ya really know how to select your hit pieces.

I'm sure you didn't read the links in the piece. If you had, you'd have read some of the garbage posted at VDARE.  But you didn't.

Seriously, you are using the ADL and SPLC as authorities on whether a site is racist or anti-Semitic? Seriously?

As to NR, who cares? This election season has shown how little it can be trusted on much of anything. It is also I believe motivated by a vendetta against featured writer John Derbyshire whom NR fired for not toeing the NR line.

The Rocky Mountain News is another of your authorities? Really?

But, hey, don't give up. In fact I will provide you with some sources which support your position.

"Ed Schultz of "The Ed Show" (10 February 2012) discussed Brimelow's CPAC appearance and called him a "white nationalist" and "racist." Ed Show guest Mike Papantonio said Peter Brimelow is "the new David Duke" and went on to say that Brimelow is the one who said "Jews are killing America." No documentation was offered for the statement. Guest Goldie Taylor claimed Brimelow represents the same strain of "racialized populism" seen several times in American history and went on further to claim it was now embraced by the Republican Party. Other panelists disassociated themselves from her statements.[18]

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has called VDARE a hate group,[19] that was "once a relatively mainstream anti-immigration page", but by 2003 became "a meeting place for many on the radical right". The group also criticized VDARE for publishing articles by white nationalists Jared Taylor and Sam Francis.[20]

Ed Schultz, the SPLC? Good stuff that.

Then, finally, I provided you with a number of other publications which carry Coulter's column and asked, "Will this make it all better?" Did it?

Was I talking about Coulter's article?  I responded when you added your little insults and then lied by attributing quotes I never wrote to me.  That's defamation of character and I will correct you when it happens.

Political correctness is a destructive force, a social cancer. It pushes those afflicted into ignoring borders, security threats and loss of middle class jobs to global interests. It lulls the lazy mind into rejecting our common history, common culture and American values like nationalism. It demands we give up self interest, by lying to us that self interest is a symptom of racism. I detest political correctness.
