It's not gone unnoticed that former President Donald Trump has been incorporating expressions once used by Adolf Hitler into his campaign speeches.

Trump has also theatened that, if elected, he would take a very hard line against those who've spoken out or disagreed with his approach to government, many of those being former members of his administration.

Trump claims he will be a dictator, but "just on Day One," he jokes.

But, what about the Nazi comparison?


Well, Trump's first wife, Ivana, claims that Trump used to keep a book of Hitler's speeches at his bedside during their marriage, "My New Order," by Adolf Hitler.

So, it should come as no great surprise that Trump is increasingly including phrases from Hitler's speeches as his own, for example, referring to his political opponents as "vermin" or saying that immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country," both words or phrases used by Adolf Hitler to describe Jews.

Perhaps, that's why President Joe Biden resently said that Trump was "parroting Hitler," actually a pretty mild statement in view of the rhetoric.

This brings us to something currently being discussed by pundits called "Godwin's Law," a theory put out in 1990 by Mike Godwin, an author/attorney from Houston, Texas.

"Godwin's Law" is a theory that contends that, at some point, losing political candidates will eventually compare their political opposition to Adolf Hitler.  

So, is this what Joe Biden and his supporters are doing, simply comparing Trump to Hitler because they fear their campaign is losing to Trump?

Godwin, still alive, was asked about this by the news organization Politico.  We publish his comments below:

Trump’s opening himself up to the Hitler comparison.

You could say the ‘vermin’ remark or the ‘poisoning the blood’ remark, maybe one of them would be a coincidence,” But both of them pretty much make it clear that there’s something thematic going on, and I can’t believe it’s accidental.”

So, this will be a real test for the MAGA faithful, folks I believe to be patriotic Americans.

Will they continue to support a candidate mimicking and imitating the words and approach once used by Adolf Hitler?

Do Trump's supporters really think that a dramatic shift to fascism is in the best interests of our country?

  1. So, based on his own words Trump's child Baron is a victim of poisoned blood as one of his parents is an immigrant. But I guess he meant just immigrants of color and that color isn't white.
