(2,124 posts)If he were like Hitler, he'd have gangs in the street beating up the poor and immigrants, and would be plotting to seize high office by way of kidnapping and directing riots.

(23,973 posts)Do you think he wouldn't seize power through violence if he thought he could?
You haven't been paying attention to the Insane Religious Right. They would kill all who disagree with them both politically and religiously...and they have stated as much.
Ian_rd
(2,124 posts)Amazing. Also probably unfortunate for you to witness such a depressing thing.
But no, not Hitler. And I pay more attention to the far right than most liberals. Their violent armed rebellion fantasies are almost exclusively based on the idea (thank you, Glenn Beck!) that one day soon, a newly socialist tyrannical US government will occupy Smalltown, USA and confiscate guns and ban Christianity.
And because that won't happen, their fantasies are just fated to remain what they are now: masturbatory sessions with talk radio.

dreamnightwind
(4,775 posts)And a formidable opponent he would make. Is it too soon to start opposition research on Jeb?
Nay
(12,051 posts)but if it's between Bush and Cruz -- well, I know how I'd vote if I were a Republican. God help us.

Thanks for sharing, Will. Just when you think things couldn't get worse in this coutry, it does. Especially with the help of that jerk right there.

For power is next on his list (which won't come easy, or never).

Mosaic
(1,451 posts)can we please keep ethnicity out of our discussions about him. Race in general should be a taboo topic for left and right.
WilliamPitt
(58,179 posts)In a multi-cultural society, I think discussions on race should be embraced. Ignoring the thing that just about everyone thinks of when they think of who they are is a recipe for disaster.
Just my opinion.
