The invective against Donald Trump has recently reached new heights, as his detractors have dusted off the old “Hitler” comparisons and brought them to the fore. Even Bill Maher jokingly compared The Donald to Hitler in a segment on his show. Needless to say, such misguided attempts at castigating Trump sickeningly diminish the real atrocities committed by the real Hitler. These people show how little they know, but in addition, last night they showed their hypocrisy.
In advance of a Trump rally on the University of Illinois-Chicago campus on Friday night, protesters flooded the arena with the express goal of shutting down the event. Physical altercations are reported to have taken place between the protesters and Trump supporters. With the safety of his supporters in mind, Trump rightly canceled the event. When this was announced, the protesters erupted in applause, their mission accomplished – to stifle opposing points of view.
Many of the protesters were heard to have chanted “Bernie! Bernie!” after the cancelation was announced. I doubt that Bernie Sanders would openly condone what took place at the arena, but he has condoned – even praised – the totalitarian tactics of the Castro brothers. Would he call on his supporters to refrain from such actions hostile to the First Amendment? Scanning social media this evening, I’ve seen some Bernie supporters laudably condemn what occurred, but I’ve seen just as many, if not more, claiming these are Trump’s just deserts.

“When this was announced, the protesters erupted in applause, their mission accomplished – to stifle opposing points of view.”
I’m so sick of these people.
And their sycophants in the media and GOPe.
Finally something ‘on point’ from American Thinker!
I thought it common knowledge that the Nazis broke up the meetings of their opponents.
I assume the media of Germany covered for them like ours does now.
If the bloodbath must come, then let’s get on with it!
Gov. Ronald W. Reagan to the U.C. Board of Regents.
Sanders, Cruz, Kasich and Rubio are indistinguishable now in attacking Trump. Never mind that the leftist thugs have been shutting down conservative free speech for decades now.
They’re NOT “brownshirts”.
They’re the Red Front. The brown stuff comes next.
The Hitler biography by Toland says the original SA shirts were WWI Austrian army surplus. They happened to be brown.
The freepers blaming trump for the “rhetoric” haven’t been on social media and seeing the kind of vitriol that’s out there, demonizing his supporters far beyond any rational criticism of anything he’s actually said.
I think that’s what Trump is trying to stave off, actually, very bad and incredibly unproductive things.
Will Bernie disavow these actions? Hillary no. Ted Cruz no. John Kasich No. Marco Rubio No GOPe no. Dems No
If they aren’t conspirators, they are complicit. We have to fight back.
I saw a bit of Hillary calling Trump an arsonist tonight. Evil woman.
Too bad Trump couldn’t swap his crowd with law enforcement and national guard and hold the rally as planned. When the thugs start trouble, lock them all up on domestic terrorism charges.
Shouts of Racist, Bigot, Homophobe, Hater have been used by the Left, not to condemn abhorrent behavior, but to silence through verbal intimidation and shame those with opposing ideas. Watching the reaction s of the Trump supporters I think we are not far away from the day when the targets of these intimidators shout back. “ I’m a racist!!??. So what!!?? Do something about it!!” I had hoped not to live to see that day in America. But I think it’s coming soon.
The left has moved the press & the universities & the general culture so far left that they have criminalized “conservatism” in the public’s eye. Common sense things like borders & law & order & low taxes are seen as racist. The right is now GUILTY for existing. That’s why we are losing the nation.....
