    Note that Hitler actually served in the trenches of WW1 as a corporal. Didn’t claim he had “bone spurs” to get out of military service unlike SOMEONE ELSE.

      I was told it’s not impossible that Hitler and Tolkien were in opposite trenches in ww1. I want that to be true, so I haven’t left checked it.

        They were both at Somme in 1916. Hard to say if they shot at each other but its a likely possibility they were close to one another at one point in time in history.

      When in certain aspects you’re worse than Hitler…

      One can only assume how many other aspects of Hitler he can surpass too

    Quick. Send in the Marines to fumigate that place once they leave to make it safe for other humans.

    I’m really curious why the outing. It was obviously poorly planned if the protestors got access to him. Was he sundowning and it was a sudden thing? Was it to prove he was healthy enough to walk? Is it to show that he and vance are close so that when he inevitably takes over the office its a shot in the dark to make that go smoother?

      Read this morning it was to show how safe DC is now after sicking the army on regular citizens. Now the child rapist trump is all pissed off at his hand picked magat security team (he fired the real ones) allowing Pink to just rail him by yelling your the hitler of our time for what looked like a very long time. Heehee fuck the child rapist and anyone associated with him.

        The protestors booked a table in the restaurant but were amazed to find it was right next to Trump’s table, he apparently hadn’t cleared it with them very well in advance or they’d have been prescreening nearby tables as the earpiece guys do.

    They should call him a disappointment. That might actually hurt him since I’m sure he heard it from his father all the time.

      Honestly yeah, he’s a narcissist so disdain and mockery would hurt the most. Another simple but good option would be to get the biggest crowd possible to just straight up point and laugh.

        Agreed. Hearing he’s like hitler isn’t going to make that orange buffoon sad. He idolizes hitler.

        Yelling out that no one likes him, everyone around him is just there to use him, he has no actual friends, he’s a disappointment to his parents, no one will mourn his death (also, tic tic on that clock, since he’s so afraid of that), he’s a loser and weird— now THAT is going to bother him.

    Very dangerous city. Can’t go out on the streets without someone calling you Hitler.

        But he’s not just “some man”, and in context it wasn’t just “some insult”.

          As a non-murican it is just “some man”. As if anyone could take this clown serious. That clown you voted as your leader one might add. But the world really needs to know if he got called something somewhere for some reason. It’s not just incredibly entertaining and interesting, but also tremendously important.

          No, he’s someone who gets insulted all the time, using one of the more common insults available. That really makes it newsworthy! /s

            Context is important. The man sitting in the worlds most powerful position was compared directly to one of history’s biggest monsters at a time when he’s literally following Hitler’s playbook step by step.

            If someone yelled that at Bush in 2001, or Obama in 2015, hell or even Trump in 2016, yeah it wouldn’t really be news. But right now? Fucking right it’s important to keep this stuff in the news.

              And? Even non-muricans see what he does. So where is the importance that he get called something? Which, I’d bet, happens every minute in the USA and even everywhere else wherever one reads the clown’s name. Context is king, but not worth “news”.
