Fascinated with Hitler? wtf

Who keeps a book of Hitler's speeches on their bedside table? wtf

 

[SamRebel35]

They are in no way similar.

Medal of Honor - United States Army

Medal of Honor recipients, citations, and other resources concerning the nation's highest medal for valor in combat.

www.army.mil

It is an offensive comparison, in fact.

The MEDAL of freedom and MEDAL of honor are similar in zero ways???

 

[LouderVol]

The words of a moron have significance.....especially when that moron is POTUS.

Plus...........I've clearly stated that I fully support mandatory curfews in times of civil unrest.

I HAVE NO ISSUE WITH THE POLICY.

of course you don't. no one expects you to ever take exception to something a Dem does.

 

[luthervol]

I hadn't heard that one, but I've heard him sing the praises of authoritarians, that's for sure.

"Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, "My New Order," which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of "My New Order" in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade."

Donald Trump's history with Adolf Hitler and his Nazi writings: ANALYSIS

Trump once again broke new ground, becoming the first leading presidential candidate to find it necessary to insist he had never read "Mein Kampf."

Click on that link .... and then click on the Recommendation Process. They are not similar.

Is she any different than a run-of-the-mill D?

I'd consider (and I may be wrong now) a "run-of-the-mill D to be slightly left of center, the old Blue Dog Democrat so yes she is way different. Harris is far-far to the left, the woman is talking about price controls.

 

[RockyTop85]

IMO someone I wouldn't vote for as President isn't suited to be VP, they are just 1 breath away from the big office. Walz has absolutely no business being in the big office. But of course neither does Harris or Trump.

I don’t know enough to say he has no business being president, but he wouldn’t be my choice. I felt the same way about Barrack Obama. Wasn’t somebody I voted for but he was within the parameters of a competent President. I really don’t like the Covid hotline thing or the fact that he defended it. I don’t like that he signed this particular draft of the curfew order.

that is an incredibly myopic way of looking at things.

its ok to admit that Trump effed up when he said that.

Both of those actions together or even taken individually disqualify him for my vote. He's either too dumb to know what he did or believes what he did was right.

I've heard they're still an inspiration to some today....

 

[RockyTop85]

Is she any different than a run-of-the-mill D?

Her policy stances were more in line with liberal Twitter than “run-of-the-mill D” in 2019. I was not a fan and would not have voted for her against Trump prior to 1/6/21.

It’s enough that I don’t think I will vote for her unless she convincingly explains why she moved off those positions, which I don’t think she intends to do.*

*- I think trying to falsely portray oneself as a gettable vote on here is pathetic, so in the interest of full disclosure, I would crawl through the biohazard disposal dumpster of an HIV clinic to vote against Trump if I lived in a battleground state.

I said that he worded it like a dumbass. He's prone to exaggeration especially when trying to flatter someone. The point is, this particular symbolic token is the civilian equivalent in a key way to the military symbolic token. They are both symbolic tokens representing the highest honor for each respective group of candidates (civilian vs military). They are similar in some ways without being the same: precisely the definition of the word "equivalent".

you know that event was back in the 90s? Trump hasn't been married to Ivana in a while.

Trump didn't even know which book he had been given, saying it was Mein Kampf. clearly not something he really studied if he doesn't know the title.

and oh yeah, he was given that book. not saying he shouldn't have thrown it away, but there is huge amount of difference in being given a book, and going and seeking a book on Hitler's speeches.

 

[SamRebel35]

They are not the same. They are similar. You literally have no concept of how words are used in the English language if you don't understand that key point.

 

[RavinDave]

Bloody Mary

Or hair of the dog.

 

[luthervol]

of course you don't. no one expects you to ever take exception to something a Dem does.

So is it your position that there should not be a mandatory curfew during times of civil unrest?

and if Trump had explained it that way, that would be reasonable. but he didn't. you are putting far more words and thought into the explanation than Trump did.

Let's face it, Trump is a disciple of Hitler.

Thoughts from our vets

Things that didn’t happen. Jim didn’t get a “flood of text”. A CBS verification producer wouldn’t have that many vets in his contact list.

Did you overlook the part that "from time to time he reads the book"?

No, they are not similar. That is ridiculous.

Click on the link that I provided in post #36,198. That recommendation process does not in any way resemble that of any civilian award.

 

[luthervol]

He wishes. But for now he just has to settle with being an admirer.

I’m sorry but I don’t understand the latter. What’s the problem with reading Hitler’s speeches? The same can be said for Stalin or Mao. Becoming educated on the words of serial mass murderers and their acquisition of power is something freedom seekers should be familiar with.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

And yet, the Jews world wide are in greater danger under the current administration.
