Maryland High School History Lesson Compares Trump With Nazis, Communists

A public high school in Towson, Maryland is being criticized by Republican lawmakers in the state because of a history lesson that compares President Trump with Nazis and communists.

According to a report from The Baltimore Sun, a slide used in a presentation in an Advanced Placement history lesson at Loch Raven High School shows a picture of Trump, with the caption “Wants to round up a group of people and build a giant wall.” Underneath that is swastika with the caption "been there" and the communist hammer and sickle symbol with the caption "Done that."

Another caption reads “Oh, that is why it sounds so familiar.”

Maryland Delegate Kathy Szeliga posted a photo of the slide on Facebook, and had copies of the slide distributed to fellow Baltimore County members of the House of Delegates.

"This propaganda was used in an AP history class at Loch Raven High," Szeliga said. "Educational malfeasance of the highest degree."

Communists build walls to keep people in. Countries beefing up national defense build walls to keep people out. Big difference.

Exactly! And, it's such a simple concept that only the pitifully stupid, or the devilishly devious would say otherwise.

Wait. Just to be clear, are they portraying Hitler and Communism in a poor light?

How many railroad cars has Trump filled for the poison gas chambers? How many people are dead from mysterious hit jobs? Who is calling other candidates a, "lying dog-faced pony soldier"? With President Trump, even dogs are honored:

And what should you do with actual nazis and communists taking over your nation?

The democrats think that way, they are indoctrinating our kids that way. And they think I am going to disarm and be at their mercy? No way in hell.

Those “historians” are corrupt and socialist themselves, thus want to warp history to present their position. In truth, they are propagandists, NOT historians.

Red baiting from the Left. Their hysteria about McCarthyism was merely projection and felon’s guilt.

Exactly. The eerie yet 100% predictable part of what Liberals do and say it that they use PROJECTION of their true intentions via what they claim they are against.

Hitler and Stalin killed their enemies; by literally the tens of millions, and they were on opposite sides of a war.

The Left wants you enslaved, quiet and obedient so they can tell you what to do, under penalty of jail or worse. They will let you know when to smile and cry.

Did they also include pictures of the caged children during the Obama era that Bloomberg was showing, or the gated houses so many in the left live in?

What a bizarro world we live in.

There’s a REAL LIVE BONAFIDE COMMUNIST running for POTUS and he’s likely to get the Democrat nomination.

Trump is the biggest champion of freedom, liberty, and the individual we’ve had in decades and he is working day and night to take the government boot off our necks.

Any person who does not understand these things should not be within 100 miles of a public school classroom...or deported to Cuba, Venezuela or North Korea.

Because of teachers unions we’ve gone from education to indoctrination. They are following Khruschev’s plan from we will bury you speech.

"And, it's such a simple concept that only the pitifully stupid, or the devilishly devious would say otherwise."

Which sentence describes the Democrats to a "T".

Was talking to retired teacher who works now as a sub here in Maryland.

He told me they are no longer using text books in high schools that are fact checked and vetted but stuff off the internet.

If we don’t turn around our schools we are finished.
