My apologies for disturbing you on consecutive days, but … I can’t resist. In the last few days much has been made in the mainstream media as well as in yesterday’s post linking former President Donald Trump’s use of words and phrases describing Mr. Trump’s opponents – principally among them, the word, “vermin” — to the words and phrases used by Fascist Nazi Fuhrer Adolf Hitler during the 1930s to depersonalize Hitler’s opponents. On his social media platform, Mr. Trump referred to his opponents (whom he clearly sees as enemies) as “Communists, Marxists, Fascists, and Radical Left Thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.”
During the day’s endeavors following yesterday’s post, I happened to see a report of a Trump Spokesman’s response to the outcry about Mr. Trump’s use of frankly fascist language, but I dismissed and ignored it because I really thought it was a spoof like many others one sees in liberal quarters to mock the former President. Particularly given the substance of the sharp criticism being leveled against Mr. Trump, I didn’t think anyone on the Trump team would actually be dumb enough to say what was being reported as its response — the irony would be too think, even for MAGAs.
I was wrong. It was real. For those who missed it:
“Those who try to make that ridiculous assertion [comparing Mr. Trump’s rhetoric to that of Hitler] are clearly snowflakes grasping for anything because they are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House [Emphasis Added].”
We’ll come back to the breadth of Mr. Trump’s characterization of his opponents as a component of a future post. Noting the blindingly oblivious fascist irony is sufficient for today.

This is just another reason in addition to the ad infinitum other ones, that every Democrat and independent voter, regardless of their reservations about Biden’s age, Kamala Harris, loan forgiveness or not, support for Israel or not, or anything else, should vote for Biden and the whole Democratic slate….unless they want to see the US governed by a sociopathic narcissist and the brainless loons that support him.
