MSNBC guest: What Trump administration is doing at the border ‘very cleanly’ matches concentration camps

Andrea Pitzer, author of One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps, agreed with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's comparing U.S. immigration detention centers to the concentration camps Nazi Germany used during World War II.

“I would say that for 40 years before Auschwitz, we had concentration camps, things that were called concentration camps. What we’re doing now fits very cleanly inside that tradition," Pitzer said on MSNBC.

"At the same time, the death camps, which were on top of the existing concentration camp system, including Auschwitz and a series of other camps in which you had gas chambers, mass killings, that is a singular moment in history. And for the people who want to respect that, I think that’s fine and that’s important," she continued. "If we want to call it irregular detention, if we want to call it extrajudicial detention, I don’t think we have to get stuck on that term. I wrote a history of the term. I had to use that term. And what I would really like people to know is the same thing is happening here now."

???Concentration camps??  So ... there are other entities at the border; such as Mexican national guard and the U.N.  IF indeed this is happening, the Trump administration is not solely the blame!!

" would really like people to know is the same thing is happening here now."
Except when Obama put children there?

I agree this concentration camp idea is a poor idea. Its awful that we hold these poor people like this while their bogus claims for asylum are processed.

We should just stick their claims in their ears, turn em around and ship em back where they came from.

Holy hell have these people never...EVER...cracked a history book?

These idiots keep burping this stuff up despite the fact AOC and her white knights have been schooled on this by not only the Auschwitz Museum but the Yad Vashem World center for Holocaust research in Israel too.

And yet here we are...

What only matters to these people is imagery that they can weaponize as a political tool to ambush Americans on the nightly news.

All else is secondary, and all 'facts' and 'logic' are strictly to serve the predetermined conclusion.

In other words - propaganda.
