Republican House candidate Carl Paladino praised Nazi leader Adolf Hitler’s ability to rouse “the crowds” and declared Hitler “the kind of leader we need today” in a February 2021 interview on the radio station WBEN in Buffalo, New York.
Paladino, a businessman and leading GOP figure in New York state who was the party’s gubernatorial nominee in 2010, is running for the Republican nomination to replace the retiring Rep. Chris Jacobs (R-N.Y.).

You think we would have learned by now.
Is anyone else running against this guy in the primary?
Seriously. Someone so abysmally stupid
Out of context. But why even mention Hitler, except to say that Pelosi is a lot like him?
Somehow, this must be a plant so that Democrats can point to this as being the heart and soul of the Republican party.
Nobody is this stupid by accident.
A simple rule is: All politicians should avoid any Hitler analogy.
It looks like he was quoting someone, not saying it on his own.
If he’s a decent candidate, I’d like to see him use this for his advantage...go right back at these scum.
He’s always been a nut job. Cuomo would’ve lost in 2010 if they had a decent candidate
Another republican anal exit aperture who loves giving sound bites to the dems so they can defeat him.
He’s too stupid to run for office when we already have a glut of stupidly 🤪
I don't care if he was taken out of context.
If you're a republican and you mention Hitler, that is exactly what the press will do to you.
Idiot.
C’mon this is Huff Post. It might be BS.
I had the same thought. A Dem plant.
(...raises hand in the far back of the room...) With the racist/criminal blacks and the illegal immigration, I’ll be honest and say my approval meter is bouncing around between 30 and 40%...
Never heard of him and now he’s national news for saying something stupid. 🤔
“Is anyone else running against this guy in the primary?”
Yes. The Chairman of the NY State Republican Party has decided to oppose him. (That’s created quite a stir in Republican circles.)
Palidino also raised eyebrows by claiming recently that the shootings in the Texas school and in Buffalo, NY were “false flag” operations.
Interesting enough, Elise Stefanik is supporting Palidino (and not the NY Republican Party chairman).
Out of context? What context would we need a leader like Hitler be a good thing?
Well, Pelosi does have a smaller mustache and worse fashion sense...
LOL! How?
