    Are you sure you know what the phrase "just like" means? Again, to the best of my recollection, Hitler didn't issue public proclamations that he loved Jews.

    Clinton does blame other outgroups for the ills of the country though, it's just that they tend to be amorphous groups and nonsensical social structures, like those evil racists that constructed the school to prison pipeline.

    Turkey is a democracy. Erdogan won the presidential elections in 2014. They had 2 parliamentary elections in 2015, since the first one resulted in a hung parliament.

    The ruling party in poland, the PIS just recently made a law to take power away from the national court. Before that, they replaced all national television journalists with party-loyals. And therefore removed neutral journalism.

    Turkey was a democracy in the last 10 years, the HDP, a kurd party, got 20 % last vote. Just a week ago, the AKP controlled parliament voted to remove immunity from most of the opposition politicans in parliament to allow Erdogan to get them with questionable terrorist impeachments.

    No, hungary had a real democracy, before orban took over control over media and judicative with the fidesz-party. Hungary already is a dictatorship.

    Things change. Vote for Trump, the US loses. Vote for Hillary, you get 4 more years of Obama and the US loses.

    No he didn't. Because there was no need to, there was some hatred towards jews at the time. Hitler simply exploited that into his favor, the same way Trump is exploiting hatred towards illegal mexican inmigrants.

    As far as I'm aware there's no hard evidence that supports gas chambers were actually used.

    Not the best example imo.
    Such extraordinary claim needs extraordinay sources, so if you provided your claim would have more validity.

    I'd honestly be more concerned with how much of his time in office will be spent running his company with the added bonus of being a part of the law making process whilst he does it.

    All his talk about foreigners and Muslims and whatnot is just him trying to look hard.

    Trump's rhetoric is scary and his plans to build a wall is both atrociously expensive and will likely prove to be ineffective.

    The man clearly has several narcissistic traits and much of what he says is either idiotic or nonsense, I seriously wonder about the overall level of cognitive functioning regarding his supporters.

    Is "Your Hitler, Your racist, and your Sexist" The only cards the left have?

    You are losing now and the debates haven't even started... Guilt has a diminishing return and I think you are out of pity.

    This shit really does parody itself at this point. If saying that people here illegally should be deported is "exploiting hatred", it really is time to just scrap the concept of borders all together, as it's evidently "exploiting hatred" to believe they should exist and be lightly enforced.

    What most people need to ask themselves is assuming a tyrannical government happens (regardless of party) -- what are you willing to do about it?

    Hillary or Trump.... maybe it's a President in 20 years who does it? Doesn't matter.

    Assuming they follow Hitler's steps and you can reasonable jump to the conclusion mass murder is happening -- what *are* you going to do about it? If the group targeted is coming to your house asking for help, would you help? If you saw people lined up being shot one by one, what would you *honestly* do about it?

    This is a question only each individual person can answer. I imagine most people it would, at *most*, be record it with their phone while running in fear. Fewer would intervene. But in reality -- are you prepared for it? If Obama were to start it against the gays/blacks/hispanics/indians *right now*? If Trump were to start it on day one, what are you *prepared* to do?

    Let's tone all that down. You walk by a store and see someone robbing it -- what do you think is going to be your first reaction? Shock? Dial 911? Run? Hide and dial 911? If you aren't prepared for something as trivial as this then how can you be prepared to take on a tyrannical government?

    In the end, all we can do is draw parallels in history as acting like history can't repeat itself is awfully arrogant. Best to do is be prepared as best as you can be.

    It is, when you accuse them of being rapist, thiefts, drug dealers and grouping them like that.

    Eh not really peopel are comparing hitler's rising with Trump's rising. The method is put into comparison, not the persons. Its quite silly to literally claim some is Hitler just for the sake of it, but when comparing methods of rising to power its a valid comparison. Thus the comparison could have easily been made between Trump and any other idiot populist out there. Nevertheless if the USA chooses Trump nothing will happen and everything will be the same, it will be funny though to see how his supporters try to justify his incompetence to carry out his plans.

    They aren't legitimate immigrants though, they are illegals. Hillary wants the 10 mil illegals for endless future Democrat presidents.
