“So this “history” teacher is teaching that Hitler didn’t want Jews in Germany because they were flying planes into buildings and killing innocent Germans, Maybe because Jews were placing bombs at events and killing innocent Germans. I was also unaware of Donald Trump’s plans to march Muslims into gas chambers. What a poor excuse for a teacher.”
You're looking at Hitler from 70+ years of historical perspective. Look at what people knew about Hitler in early February, 1933, and compare to today. Hitler was named as Chancellor on January 30th, 1933. Hindenburg knew something of him, but most Germans didn't know much at all. And Hitler was a war hero, unlike Trump. Only time will tell which was the better person. Considering the alternative, I have to like our chances with Trump, personally, but I'm not blind to facts. We just need to wait and see what new facts develop.

In 1933 everyone in Germany knew that Hitler had tried to overthrow the Government in a coup in 1923.
He routinely supressed opposing opinions using his Sturmabteilung storm troopers. He'd been doing this for years before 1933.
Open your eyes. The Left is out in the streets, brutally assaulting their political opponents. Not Trump, but the Left.

None of us at FR need time to tell what what kind of leader Donald Trump will be compared to Hitler. To even think that is just sick.
