Trump tells rally immigrants are ‘poisoning the blood of our country’

https://lemmy.world/post/9658924

Well. No points for subtlety.

It still flies over the head of a lot of republicans.

They just don’t know that, it’s practically a direct translation of hitler’s rhetoric- and they’ve never believe it, even if you show them hitler’s massive speeches.

Many Republicans would support Hitler today. They like his ideas if you replace Jews with immigrants.
“Hitler tells it like it is.”
“He just seems like the kind of guy I could get a beer with.”
You don’t have to replace Jews with anything…
No, but I think most Republicans have groups they hate more than they hate Jews.
That seems a bit harsh, I would have given him at least 10 minus points
More like Trump and his pals are poisoning the country.
We need to bring the republican filth down to where they belong.

Why do all of his speeches sound like they were pulled straight from the nazis?

"Donald Trump appears to take aspects of his German background seriously. John Walter works for the Trump Organization, and when he visits Donald in his office, Ivana told a friend, he clicks his heels and says, “Heil Hitler,” possibly as a family joke.

Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist. "

Oh yeah, that’s why. Thanks vanity fair.

Again, he’s not subtle.

He's literally Dwight from that episode where Jim teaches Dwight how to deliver a speech.

He isn't smart enough to know the historical paradigm of dictator's speeches himself.

I wanna know who his Jim is.

Blood alone moves the wheels of history!!!
From what I’m reading Hitler was a lifelong passion for Trump. Sure he might not have read it recently, but at one point, even if it’s was 20 years ago, he wasn’t mentally deranged. If he actually did read them “from time to time” over the years, that’s easily a dozen. And usually people remember things better if they find it interesting, so even someone with memory issues would be able to paraphrase and recite something they’ve heard a dozen times, especially if that was their passion.
No way he is reading.
“Let me tell you folks, I read. Big words, small words, I read all kinds of words. Hell, I’ve read thousands of words just this morning. They call me the greatest reader of all time, folks. Some of the toughest books, magazines, I read them all. Not like that fool Ron DeSatanist, I bet he hasn’t read a single book in his life. Sleepy Joe? Probably forgot how to read just like he forgot how to be president. But me, I read more than anyone in the world. I am, what some folks call, a “reader”. And that’s why, folks, you can trust me, you can donate to campaign, because I’m a very smart guy, because I read, you know, smart people, they read. It’s just what I do, I read. Now if you excuse me folks, I’ve gotta go start reading.”
The sad part is I can’t even tell if that’s a real quote or not at a glance.
And 100% pass on Turing test if it’s AI generated.
Downvoted for realism

I was thinking exactly the same thing and then I saw your comment. I bet even Trump can’t believe how far he has gotten basically saying the same type of crazy shit Hitler used to say. Trump is really calling to the baser instincts of a disturbingly large group of people.

It is incredibly dangerous, and so bizarre to witness it happening again, not as a historical narrative, but in real time.

There’s a reason Germany banned shit like this. It worked then, it works now and it’ll work in the future.
I mean he did all but use the phrase “blood and soil.” No surprise he’s copying off shitler’s notes.
What did those folks say back at the Unite The Right rally? The one that Trump said had good people on both sides at?
His speeches sound like nazi fanfiction because he's trying to get elected by americans
Trump is poisoning the brains of our country.
The Trump Family’s Immigrant Story

For decades, they denied their German roots, claiming to be of Scandinavian origin.

HISTORY
I like most of you Americans, but I don’t wanna share the longest undefended border anymore if that asshole is elected again.
Just tell everyone that Alberta is out of oil. No one is going to invade for the maple syrup, despite it being the nectar of the gods.
It will be for the water though.
Yup. NAFTA negotiations are coming up shortly and I bet some of our unused pipelines will be looked at to transport fresh water instead of oil.

Which might be a good idea. We’ve got the pipes sitting there already, connecting the whole continent. Might as well use them.

Before someone says it, yes, you can clean out oil pipelines enough to be used for fresh drinking water. It has been done before.

I dunno that it’s a good idea. What would the US be willing to pay for that water? I mean if it’s like the pittance water bottlers have been paying, fuck that.

Would we have restrictions on usage, and limits on how much they can take per year? Like there’s a large chunk of desert that’s growing crops and that take a LOT of water.

Lots of questions to be answered and logistics to look at first.

I don’t think it works that way
Why not? It’s a free trade agreement and Canada has known for a long time that America would be looking at our freshwater sources because of their mismanagement.
I don’t think you can just look at some old oil pipeline and just decide to run freshwater through it. Pretty sure water isn’t the same as oil also I don’t think most people want to drink oily water.

I never said it was old. I said it was unused.

Google TMX pipeline.

Fine whatever you convinced me. The TMX pipeline is going to take water

I didn’t it would for sure. I said it would be discussed.

C’mon. This is a discussion, right?

Sorry it is just, I can’t even with this. Canada is not going to get invaded. There are so many bigger problems to worry about.
Old oil pipes have been cleaned out before and reused for drinking water.
It can’t possibly be as expensive to invade a country vs running a desalinization system
It is if you have a standing army with no other wars to fight.
No invading Canada, k? That’s not nice.
Hey I am on your side here. There are much easier ways to get tiny bacon and maple syrup
Stfu retard, we are importing 1 million of third worlders mainly Indians. We have our own problems other than playing the moral police
cry harder
Seems like it’s you and the others who are crying harder. My post is gone, that’s what you people refer to or name calling too. Lmao
I’ve seen this episode of the office, Jim gave Dwight a script to read for an award acceptance speech.
He said the quiet part out loud. Except it’s no longer quiet. It’s loud and very clear to his base.
I agree with Trump. Ever since the first European settlers came to the North America, the area has been in heavy decline. From polluting rivers to the point where they could be lit on fire, to the last president who was a fascist.
You’re full of absolute shit, Europeans were just the peanut on the turd. Ever since proto-Asians crossed Beringia North America has gone to hell, killing the sabertooth tigers and hunting all the really fucking cool megafauna to extinction. There used to be giant sloths here, and sloths are so chill.
Pour one out for the giant sloths.

Yeah, king. Motherfucking North America was like Africa, except less hot.

Woolly mammoths, giant armadillos and three species of camels were among more than 30 mammals that were hunted to extinction by North American humans 13,000 to 12,000 years ago, according to the most realistic, sophisticated computer model to date. The news is reported in the June 8 issue of the journal Science. …

Some of the mammals that became extinct are:

  • woolly mammoths

  • Columbian mammoths

  • American mastodons

  • three types of ground sloths

  • glyptodonts

  • giant armadillos

  • several species of horses

  • four species of pronghorn antelopes

  • three species of camels

  • giant deer

  • several species of oxen

  • giant bison

Humans Hunted Mammals To Extinction In North America

Woolly mammoths, giant armadillos and three species of camels were among more than 30 mammals that were hunted to extinction by North American humans 13,000 to 12,000 years ago, according to the most realistic, sophisticated computer model to date.

ScienceDaily
Until now I wasn’t aware that giant armadillos were a thing I really wish existed.
Not likely wiped out by humans because they were probably already gone, but oreodonts are pretty cool too. They basically looked like pig dogs. And we don’t know if they were related to pigs, camels, or hares. Which is a funny verity of possible relatives.

Don’t forget about the giant beavers (Castoroides ohioensis)!

Ice Age Mammals - Giant Beaver — Canada (Ontario) Beneath Our Feet

This page describes the giant beaver (Castoroides ohioensis). It was a mammal that lived during the last great ice age. It was the biggest of all rodents that lived during the Pleistocene. They lived in North America 35 million to 30 million years ago. They are the ancestors of modern beave
