Tom Steyer Town Hall Attendee: What’s The Difference Between Trump And Hitler? [VIDEO]

A woman attending a Tom Steyer-led town hall asked what the difference was between President Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler, arguing that the Republican president has done things similar to those of the detested leader of Nazi Germany.

“Through all of this, and through the time [Trump’s] been president, he reminds me of Hitler,” an Iowa woman named Sally said to Steyer on Thursday. The line drew cheers and applause from the audience. “I just keep thinking: what’s the difference between him and Hitler. Hitler really strikes me, and you just mentioned what he’s doing to families at the border. That’s what Hitler did – tore families apart.”

Well, one difference is that Sally and Steyer are not in concentration camps or dead. They should really reflect on what garbage comes out of their mouths.

And Obama and Hillary have done much like Chairman Mao, Lennin. Stalin, Mussolini, Castro, and HITLER.

I’m pretty sure Reagan was Hitler as well.

I think they’re worse than insane.

To compare anyone to Hitler lightly is to belittle the suffering of those who actually dealt with the real thing.

Sally, let me answer that one.... if Trump was really like Hitler you would have been in fear of not only your life, but also your family's lives for asking such a question in public. And if you did ask such a question in public, well you and your family would have been taken in by the SS, never to be seen again.

Now Sally when you wake up in the morning and you are not hanging upside down next to your family members you will know that Trump is not Hitler!

Why does no one ever ask the simple question of these people to name how Trump is like Hitler? I’m sure they can’t come up with any real comparison.

Proving that Liberals don’t know jack about the ACTUAL Hitler.”

They don’t. To the left, “Hitler” is just a euphemism for “worst person ever”. Compared to Mao, Hitler was a Sunday School teacher. They don’t even really have any sympathy for Jews and don’t really know much about the holocaust.

On people under fifty—
They feel free to compare to anyone because they know so little.
In a news article recently there was a line: “Henry Ford was an inventor and industrialist who popularized the car.” That means people reading the article had never heard of Henry Ford! Who else are they ignorant of?

At some point, they will start more active measures.

Trump has shaken their faith enough, it may be sooner than many think.

You cannot deflect morons from their logic-impaired course through life.

First of all, Hitler was never a believer in capitalism as a force to generate power and as a means to deliver a better way of life to ALL people. German capitalism existed both before and during the Nazi regime, but it was always largely confined to the ones who had inherited the business, and relied on cartels to retain their dominance in their particular market segment. In fact, the Nationalist Socialist movement acted to harness what capitalistic organizations there were, and put them to work building state-operated entities, including the Nazi war machine. The “Peoples Car” was launched as a means of graciously accepting down payments for vehicles which were never meant to be widely distributed, then using these down payments to build a government-industrial complex that produced a field command vehicle (the Kubelwagen), Germany’s version of the US Jeep.

And of course, all ideologies and political parties other than the National Socialist German Working Men’s Party, were pretty much outlawed. Far as I know, Trump has made no move whatsoever to outlaw any political party or even some pretty far-out ideologies here in the US.

My attempt-at-humor reaction to this story was how patently absurd the comparison is: Hitler sent people to the gas chambers whereas Trump isn’t even forcing people to go to LA and endure its smog.

... but then it was pointed out to me that Mexico City has thick air too so for some illegal aliens receiving sanctuary it may be just like home,

... only without them having a right to even be there of course,

... so just like home if they were squatting in someone’s living room, demanding benefits and taking their stuff.

I think Hitler actually kept them together, all the way to the death camps. Trump, not so much.

Not very similar at all. For one thing, Hitler was a great painter. He could paint an apartment in an afternoon; two coats.

They are commies and socialist and we oppose them.

There were commies and socialist and Hitler opposed them.

What more comparison needs to be made? We are Obstructing Just-Us.

How many of these loons would agree with Bill Ayers and his bunch who back in the day speculated about how many Americans (who couldn’t be reeducated in the camps) would need to be killed?

This helps Trump.
He is the victim of psychotic liars, whose viciousness is only outdone by their stupidity.

Bush is Hitler, now Trump is Hitler. The trope is tiresome, and it is an affront to the families of survivors of Nazi atrocities.

A sick punch line.

Keep it up Dems, as they continue to alienate rational people.
