Do you don’t see any similarities at all?

I said not close, not that I don't see similarities. I post often that people need to be more worried about denying people to testify, hiding documents, censoring media. I post that GOP is corrupt at every level. However, it is dangerous to compare megalomaniacs, fascist, etc. No two are alike. I think you are still calling US government a government, not a regime, if it continues on this path, it is a regime. Mind you, I am not sure why it was not a regime. Regime is a word used to put down other countries that are not democratic and capitalist, no? Yet, US is ruled by big lobbies and business, that has now decided to use the lowest denominator that works to subdue progress, nationalism and racism. Why, it is easy, and it works.

But, fine - ignore them and call them shallow.

Don't get mad when we say "told you so" as we go further down into the darkness

In fact, Donald Trump never wrote a book about a future genocide like Mein Kampf, never forced people to put tattoos on their arms, or crowd them into death camps where they would suffer torture till they were gassed, shot, thrown in ice water, or died some other horrible death. Nor do those centers housing illegal immigrant children run brutal “experiments” on twins. Trump never ordered the mutilation of corpses by taking out gold teeth, prosthetic limbs, etc., anything that could be reused. And he never had bodies thrown in mass graves or crematoria.

Since Trump never did any of that, nor are children tortured where they are housed, any comparisons to the horrors of Nazi Germany are not only absurd but also, they are an insult to those who perished or survived the Holocaust, and even to those of the “Greatest Generation” who fought to rid the world of this evil.

Sadly, it is a habit of liberals who disagree with an opinion to resort to name calling. I was once called an anti-Semite by an employee of the liberal organization Media Matters. And he did it on a Saturday when I am not online (but my Gentile friends at Breitbart.com protected me online until my post-Shabbos return).

The use of Nazi references especially by media and/or political figures is an example of an ignorance of history, political lunacy, and when the analogy’s uttered by a media figure a case of laziness or an inability to come up with an appropriate analogy. It is merely another example of Trump Unacceptance and Resistance Disorder (also known as TURD).

My recommendation to those wanting to call Trump a Nazi is DON’T! If you’re going to call Donald Trump other names, go ahead, it’s still a free country (although not as free as it was before 2008 but it’s gotten a lot closer since Trump took over). However, if you decide to call him names–leave the Holocaust out of it. An inappropriate reference to the Holocaust is a disservice to your audiences, and more importantly it is a disservice the memory of the horrors suffered by the real victims of the real Hitler.

Why is this opinion of a relative of a Holocaust survivor more valid than the dozens of opinions from actual Holocaust survivors posted earlier?

Again, Hitler's "other" was Jews.

Trump's "other" are brown and black people and Muslims (except the ones who fund him, like the Saudi's)

It is a broad comparison, not a one to one that seems to be your takeaway. Look a little broader than yourself.
