Trumpf like Hitler does not care how the govt works. Trumpf has a known history of Disregarding our laws.

This is the exact kind of verbal vomit that leads to divisions, hate and violence.

That would be true if you are talking about Trump. His verbal vomit is designed to divide, lead to hate and violence.

What do you think January 6th was all about.

Like Hitler, trumpf is fueled by hate and narcissism.

Then get his to quit sticking his little fingers down his throat. And tell your fellow MAGA “patriots” to put away their AKs.

He’s spewing on the constitution and will gladly allow you to clean it up.

Hope you like the taste of day old Mickey Ds

What would you say is the modern incarnation of pan-germanism? What would the movement attempt to unify? Canada and Mexico aren’t even primarily English speaking. The only choice even remotely similar would be the UK. You figure Trump is gonna march on London? Who are today’s antagonists and how are they controlling society? Is it still the Jews, or have they morphed into some other group? Black and brown people? I thought they were oppressed. How is it that the oppressed now wield such unearned influence?

I see no parallels, at all. Mein Kampf is an expansionist screed, Trump is an isolationist. Their political theories couldn’t be farther apart. It seems obvious you haven’t read the translation or even cliff notes, and I’m probably wasting time asking for specific parallels, but maybe you’ve got a perspective that I haven’t heard other than ‘omfg people rioted’ which appears the only similarity you can come up with. Sorry, but there’s been political riots since there were people. Why aren’t we comparing Trump to Robespierre if that’s the working criteria. How about Ghandi? Jesus? All those guys are convicted felons at least, maybe a better jumping off point.

Let us say that it is true (it's not): How do you explain the majority of the country voting for him in such a massive and resounding way, giving him all the levers of power possible?

Let us say that it is not true (BINGO!): What can you do differently to understand the disparity, i.e. disconnect?

How can we help you to help yourself?

Regardless, sounds like a you/ya'll thing, not a we/us thing.

Mein kampf is a how to book of the nazis
Expansion vs isolationist has no sand here. A playbook is a how to. Trumpf and Hitler have small differences in their goals. In the end its all about seizure for control

[Unique_Carpenter]

Control by a single person is usually a Dictatorship or an Absolute Monarchy.
In that Trump knows he's out in four years those labels are not applicable

As US laws cannot actually change unless congress is in on that, is not all that Trump can do is end governmental activities that have not been authorized by Congress?
Ie all the immigration prior presidential wavier for a million excuses.
That said, what will congress go along with? Is not this the control issue?

However, yes the pres runs the govt. So yes he can fire folks. Every pres since over two hundred years ago has run the govt as they see fit. Why are folks surprised?
