92. Adolph Hitler

Sun Feb 4, 2018, 05:20 AM

Feb 2018

Actually started by promising to help the unemployed. He blamed the bankers who were mostly wealthy Jews for their lack of jobs. The German people were starving.

News was not available to many in those days, only radios,and short Documentaries at the Movies.

But he pulled the same hate tactics Trump is using. Shut down any news. Trump gets his ideas from the worst hate monger of all, Sean Hannity.

Do not kid yourself it can not happen here. The Republican Party has become increasingly mean over the years. They use any method to win and the Supreme Court has given them unlopimited money to do just that.

Thank goodness we still have enough free media to counter their hate. That is why Trump is attacking. The media and our Justice system.

This is not going to end well.
