I am not surprised by the close parallels. Since it is alleged that the Mad King had Mein Kampf at his bedside to read every night, and is not bright enough to come up with his own ideas, he is clearly copying it essentially verbatim.
Adolf Hitler had strong views on women. He described his own ideal woman as "a cute, cuddly, naive little thing - tender, sweet, and stupid." (47) This is why he was attracted to Eva Braun. According to Alan Bullock, the author of Hitler: A Study in Tyranny (1962): "Hitler became genuinely fond of Eva. Her empty-headedness did not disturb him; on the contrary, he detested women with views on their own." (48)
Yes, I know. Much truth is said in jest. When I read that quote, I doubted its authenticity. I had to look it up. I know your humor, Trevor. I always appreciate that.
“their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous” which certainly is one explanation why we got Trump 2.0.
Yes, it is Kay-El. Describes MAGA mentality quite well.
Some of those things sound as if they're being said today.
Also: Hitler copied Mussolini in a lot of ways... e.g. Fuehrer is Leader in German, Duce in Italian

Absolutely,John. How can anyone blame us for the obvious parallels?

And it’s a good bet, Cheri, that Stephen Miller is even more familiar with Hitler than Trump.

Brent, are you sure Hitler wasn't stealing a line from a Trump speech???

I was just joking ...

Ugh. True!
