From ignoring the threat posed by COVID-19 to lying about testing to no organized strategy to undermining the authority of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Trump has done everything possible to make the pandemic worse.
A letter from August 2019, before the current national emergency...
Here’s how Trump and Hitler are alike
Updated: August 26, 2019
As a retired USAF officer raised in the 1940s Nazi occupied Netherlands, I believe I am uniquely qualified to assert that President Trump and Adolf Hitler share similar ideologies and use similar tactics for their own personal gain.
In order to solidify power, Hitler abolished the judiciary in Germany. President Trump is in the process of stacking the federal courts (including the Supreme Court) with judges who share his ideology. The same effect results — no justice.
Hitler had his concentration camps with Reinhard Heydrich to oversee them. Trump has his detention centers with Stephen Miller in charge. Same effect.
Hitler was a racist. Jews, gypsies, Slavs, homosexuals and the afflicted were sent to the camps. Trump’s ban on Muslims, his tirade against four congresswomen of color who stood up to him, his rhetoric regarding Baltimore’s black people — asserting that they are somehow subhuman — clearly brand him as a white supremacist racist.
Both Hitler and Trump demanded personal loyalty instead of loyalty to country and constitution.
The similarities are staggering and ominous. I draw these parallels because I was there then and I am here now, and I need to do what I can to prevent a repeat of the horrors of the past.

Not giving up. Ever.
As long as there are still at least two of us, Newest Reality, we still have a democracy.
