[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump lies mainly to stir up fear, hate, and division.  That is the danger.  Sadly, people tend to be led by fear, not hope. Hitler led this way and Trump is following his playbook.  It's dangerous and incomparable to lies of past/present politicians. It's clear that Trump voters don't care about his lies, his criminal record, or anything else. He was right when he said he "could walk down 5th Avenue and shoot someone and still win."  His supporters have bought into the cult and nothing will change their minds.[/quote]

Last time I checked he was president for four years and didn’t rule like Adolf Hitler. My goodness[/quote]

Ok--just because he didn't kill 6 million Jews doesn't mean he didn't rule like Hitler---

"Trump made more than 30,000 false or misleading claims during his four years as president, according to a count by the Washington Post. Perhaps the most egregious is “the big lie” that he, not Joe Biden, won the 2020 presidential election, only for it to be stolen due to widespread fraud. De Berg writes in his book: “The idea behind the concept of the big lie is that if an untruth is sufficiently extreme, people are likely to accept it if only because they cannot bring themselves to believe that anyone could lie in such an outrageous manner.

“It was Hitler who came up with the concept, writing in Mein Kampf that ‘the great masses of the people … more easily fall victim to a big lie [große Lüge] than to a little one, since they themselves lie in little things, but would be ashamed of lies that were too big. Such a falsehood will never enter their heads, and they will not be able to believe in the possibility of such monstrous effrontery and infamous misrepresentation in others.’”[/quote]

You’re asking me to believe the [i]Guardian[/I]??  For Pete’s sake. I might as well believe in the Tooth Fairy. [/quote]
