Trump had his Hitler moment at the Alabama - LSU football game.

[slater71]

Just like from the 30`s, a stadium of blind followers cheering for Hitler, they finally found a place that would cheer for the idiot Trump.

[uponit7771]

1. They were told they can't boo him

[Cirque du So-What]

4. The school relented after ACLU said nuh uh

Something about that pesky 1st Amendment.

[uponit7771]

9. Yep, after they loudly said don't boo him they softly recanted ... The first gets out

[Farmer-Rick]

18. Yeah, they loudly threatened everyone who dared think to express their dislike

Of the chosen one. Then they quietly backed off so they didn't get arrested for violating people's rights.

But yeah, they did back off..........from threatening people with violating their civil rights.

So, I guess that's sort if kind of like a democracy that enshrines freedom of speech in the First Amedndment. Sort of, kind of.

[cstanleytech]

15. I suspect they quietly made it known to the students that anyone that booed

would face repercussions.

[Skittles]

41. no one said they had to cheer him

[Mandeville]

2. and then they lost

[unc70]

8. Alabama fumbled right after he was introduced

The Alabama crowd was already cheering because it looked like they were about to score. Trump was introduced, then an unforced fumble.

[uponit7771]

11. +1, fell right out of the QBs hands

[erlewyne]

25. You mean Trump can win Pennsylvania and Michigan?

Please do not go to Columbus tRUMP !!!.

[paleotn]

22. The man is walking, talking death.

[malaise]

3. Great observation

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=12668676

That said there were subtle protests at those 1936 Olympics

[PJMcK]

5. Let's see how New Yorkers react tomorrow

Trump is planning on attending the Veterans Day parade in NYC.

How do you think the locals will treat the big baby?

[brush]

7. He's not going to like how New Yorkers react to him.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

14. So how will he do that? It will probably be some

Kind of bullet proof booth or something? Will be very cold.

It might have to be one of the paraders to protest? That'd be cool. Oh wait, veterans day..not a float type parade - military people?

[jmbar2]

19. Who gets the bullet booth?

Trump or the paraders? Should they be wearing bullet proof vests?

He thinks he gets to shoot people with impunity.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

35. Can't help but think about Seinfeld episode

Where they couldn't get where they wanted cuz they couldn't cross the parade. That would be cool if he couldn't get to the bullet proof booth

[OhNo-Really]

6. Hope he spends oodles of time there

[maxrandb]

10. Let it go

I watched and CBS had him on screen for about 1.5 seconds... the crowd didn't even have a chance to boo the orange fuckstick, and on the very next play, the AL QB fumbled the football like Rudy handling an iPhone.

This whole thing is a big fat nothing burger.

I urge DU to let this story die the death it deserves.

Like Bogart said; "it doesn't amount to a hill of beans".

[NightWatcher]

13. This

[Farmer-Rick]

20. Not this

[paleotn]

24. Superstition lives, particularly among sports fans...

The thing is introduced and Tagovailoa promptly fumbles like a DIII, 3rd team, backup QB....in the red zone no less.

Yea, yea. Ankle surgery. Sore ankle. Whatever. I personally thing the Gods were angry at Alabama.

[groundloop]

28. True..... but a couple of the most obnoxious 'bama fans at work are getting Tiger Paws.....

A couple of the most obnoxious tRumper 'bama fans at work are going to arrive Monday morning to find LSU Tiger Paw Prints glued to their office doors.

[jayschool2013]

12. Twitler: The first president

of the Second Confederacy.

[dalton99a]

16. +1

[defacto7]

17. He still has the May Day parade in Moscow.

tRump will get all the love Putin can force on his captive audience to produce.

[Farmer-Rick]

21. Yeah, why doesn't the shorty Putin invite the chosen one

To his dictator parades? The tiny man in Russia is in control of all of the nation's wealth and he never invites his puppet over to play in his mobster parades. What's that about?

Do all obnoxious mobster wanabe keep their elaborate palaces and parades to themselves?

[defacto7]

34. I heard that he's been invited and is considering it.

[Harker]

23. Was Sessions there, shaking his pom-poms? n/t

[olegramps]

26. No one should be surprised at the crowd's entusiastic whelcome.

I had a brother-in-law who lived in Alabama and we visited him many times until his recent death. You would be hard put to find a person out side of Montgomery, damn few even there, who had a decent word to say about any Black person and give them their due. Dating from the passage of the Civil Rights legislation, the South is basically an increasingly white nationalist strong hold that has put its loyalty to the Republican Party above its loyalty to the Constitution or even their own well being.

It is difficult to understand why any Black or for that matter any minority would tolerate living in a section of the nation that has absolutely no respect for them. Unfortunately for a substantial number, they are captives of their economic circumstances and the path to freedom has evaporated with the disappearance of good paying industrial jobs in the North. The only a degree of solace is that the racist whites are quickly finding themselves hopelessly the victims of an economic revolution as automation is rapidly replacing manual operations. Many, if not most, are so gripped with blind prejudice cultivated by their devotion to right wing propagandists they are oblivious to the facts that they are supporting their own economic destruction. How do you logically discuss issues with people who are in desperate need for medical care that they can't afford to not back the insanity of the expansion of affordable health care offered by the Affordable Care Act? Many ask why. The answer is simple. They view it as legislation that is designed to provide assistance to minorities and oppose it even at their own expense.

So white Trump loyalists, all I can say is keep up the good work. You are digging your and your children's return to the desperation of the pre-Roosevelt era. A time in which the working class was gripped in a barren wasteland where any hope for a descent share of the profits for your labor was a hopeless dream. Be assured that the wealthy class wholeheartedly welcomes your support.

[smirkymonkey]

38. I honestly don't think I could even tolerate living there as a white person, let alone a

person of color.

People on this board get upset with us when we northerners complain about the south, but the racism and hatred is so thick in those areas of the country it is definitely a regional problem. I know there are decent, liberal non-racist people who live in southern states and I appreciate the work they are doing there. There are no areas of this country that are entirely free of racism, but the south seems to have a very deeply ingrained hatred of anyone who isn't white and christian.

Just look at how they vote and who they send to Congress. That tells you a lot about them.

[olegramps]

40. When they are confronted about a candidate's racism, they quickly dismiss it as being exaggerated.

I don't know how many times I have heard the old refrain that the liberal media is totally the blame for spreading lies. I have relatives throughout the South. One of my kin was raised in Mississippi and her grandfather had over twenty slaves. There are sections of the family that despise the fact some of their kin folk held slaves, but others actually have expressed what a great service the slave owners were providing for the care of slaves who they believe were actually better off as slaves than living in Africa. I will venture to say that most of the women I know, especially my own mother, said that those who held such notions were just ignorant no-nothing trash. I have found it to be a predominately male notion of some superiority and the least educated the more racist. I have seen that women especially have little trouble bonding with minorities and especially other women. They seem to share a special bond, perhaps because of their being mothers and are able to have greater empathy. We best elect more women to positions of power. They seem to be able to not let it go to their head. As Lincoln said if you what to test a man's character give him power. Isn't Trump the prime example?

[Hoyt]

36. Good to see. Thanks.

[Pepsidog]

29. And how were they repaid, Alabama got their asses kicked at home. Haha !

[MaryMagdaline]

30. Then he had his Jesse Owens moment

He backed the wrong team.

[iluvtennis]

31. Not so sure the college kids were cheering for him as much as they were for their team.

I watched the entire game (...great game by the way if you don't particularly care about defense...) and the young folks never sat down or stopped cheering - they were loud from beginning to end.

[Gothmog]

32. Alabama lost the game

33. It was a manipulated, bought and paid for Hitler moment for Trump in order to capture a news cycle.

Tea Party redux.
