German economy which allowed hitler to rise in the 1920s...feeding on the despair and arrogance of the German people which fueled it. By 1930s it was juggernaut...

Which he did.

Hayden said Monday that his decision to use the photo was an attempt to reflect how Germany went from a democratic society to a nation that perpetuated the Holocaust.
"Let's run the clock back to 1933, which is really what I was trying to address," Hayden said. "And in 1933, what did we see in Germany? A cult of personality, a cult of nationalism, a cult of grievance, a press operation that looked like and was the ministry of propaganda and then the punishing of marginalized groups."
Hayden said the "needle" of the United States was nowhere near the reality of Nazi Germany, but that the nation was moving in the wrong direction.

the "compromise bill" makes it harder for brown skinned immigrants to apply for legal citizenship and/or asylum, especially if they come from "shithole countries". This policy has always been in place. Nothing new. Now you get some racist fascists from the EU, quick track to ameriKKKan citizenship, guaranteed. I know this from personal experience.
