Trump's new logo looks almost looks familiar. Where else have i seen that eagle style standing on a circle?






Proof it's really his new logo:





To be fair, further down the thread:




Even if it's just "stock clip art", Trump's people are either 1) tone-deaf or 2) deliberately evoking the Nazi comparison.

The German Nazi one has the eagle looking right. The American Nazi one is looking left.

5. Jewish Group Raps Trump For 'Nazi-Inspired' Eagle On Campaign T-Shirt

President Trump continued to take heat on social media Thursday for a campaign re-election T-shirt that a Jewish group called “Nazi-inspired” because of a stylized eagle, marking the second time in recent weeks the president has been accused of using Nazi symbols in his re-election bid.





The $30 T-shirt, which is “proudly made in the USA,” is advertised on shop.donaldjtrump.com showing an eagle with its wings spread and head facing its left similar to the Iron Eagle, the official symbol of the Nazi party, Bend the Arc: Jewish Action said in one of several posts on the topic on Twitter.

The Twitter post from Bend the Arc: Jewish Action, which describes itself as a “movement of progressive Jews across the country who are fighting for justice and equality for all,” charges that “President of the United States is campaigning for re-election with a Nazi symbol. Again…It’s not an accident. Bigotry is their entire brand.”

Last month, Facebook removed Trump ads that contained a red triangle, a symbol once used by Nazis to designate political prisoners.
