5. I haven't seen anyone make direct comparisons

After all, Hitler hated far fewer people. Trump hates everybody who isn't a rich white WASP or woman under 25 he's physically attracted to.

What the comparisons are to is the overall political situation, with rebellions against party establishments happening in both parties. Their party went for the man. Ours went with most of the platform. Both parties remain in serious trouble with their rank and file.

The parallel is with the extreme discontent with the status quo that crosses all party lines.
