    Want to read something that will make you shiver? Nearly every sentence in this review applies to Trump as well: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/28/books/hitler-ascent-volker-ullrich.html …

        You do realize that was the *entire* reason that review was written that way, correct?

        even great minds forget the prob w Hitler not populism or demagoguery, which were ancillary, but overt call for what became holocaust

        way past confirmation bias. Entering confirmation seeking territory. Biggest problem w Trump is many great intellects in ruins. Sad.

        Doesn't it apply to most power hungry people? Apart from superficial characteristics, comparison to Hitler makes no sense at all.

        Especially how Hitler was suggesting to go to war while Trump tells people how he thinks the US shouldn't go to war.

        Hitler experienced WW I as a soldier. He wasn't rich afaik, wanted to become a painter. Whole context different.

        @nytimes "he offered himself as the visionary leader who could restore law and order." This did make me shudder.

        if you haven’t read it, The Coming of the Third Reich is excellent. Hitler was a much more skilled politicianhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/0143034693/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_2Cl7xbFWN0QV6 …

        in case of too much cognitive dissonance, the protocol is to dismiss as "Trump trolls". Maybe I'm one too.
