Trump is not a Nazi just a wannabe

On a visit to Europe to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of the first world war, Donald Trump insisted to his then chief of staff, John Kelly: “Well, Hitler did a lot of good things.”

The remark from the former US president on the 2018 trip, which reportedly “stunned” Kelly, a retired US Marine Corps general, is reported in a new book by Michael Bender of the Wall Street Journal.

Frankly, We Did Win This Election has been widely trailed ahead of publication next week. The Guardian obtained a copy.

Bender reports that Trump made the remark during an impromptu history lesson in which Kelly “reminded the president which countries were on which side during the conflict” and “connected the dots from the first world war to the second world war and all of Hitler’s atrocities”.

In a statement a Trump spokesperson, Liz Harrington, said: “This is totally false. President Trump never said this. It is made-up fake news, probably by a general who was incompetent and was fired.”

But Bender says unnamed sources reported that Kelly “told the president that he was wrong, but Trump was undeterred”, emphasizing German economic recovery under Hitler during the 1930s.

“Kelly pushed back again,” Bender writes, “and argued that the German people would have been better off poor than subjected to the Nazi genocide.”

Bender adds that Kelly told Trump that even if his claim about the German economy under the Nazis after 1933 were true, “you cannot ever say anything supportive of Adolf Hitler. You just can’t.”

Kelly, whose son was killed in Afghanistan in 2010, left the White House in early 2019. He has spoken critically of Trump since, reportedly telling friends the president he served was “the most flawed person I have ever met in my life”.

Bender writes that Kelly did his best to overcome Trump’s “stunning disregard for history”.

“Senior officials described his understanding of slavery, Jim Crow, or the Black experience in general post-civil war as vague to non-existent,” he writes. “But Trump’s indifference to Black history was similar to his disregard for the history of any race, religion or creed

If they lost, there would be nobody to refuse to admit it, because in order to truly win a war, you need to exterminate your enemy - entirely.

Sadly, even if the last Nazi soldaten and the last Confederate soldiers had been put to death, their ideologies would still be around to infect new generations.[/color]

The nazis didn't lose. They just didn't win, and that's a very big difference.

If the nazis had lost WW2 there would be no nazis today, because it would have been illegalized throughout Europe and each and every scum of these bastards would have been executed by cyanide gas after the war.

Nazism isn't even illegal in Germany, only the flag, not the ideology itself nor is it illegal be member of a nazi organization and several National-Socialist (from which "nazi" has been abbreviated) organizations exists both in Germany and in other European countries, as well as in the U.S.

You know why? I know why: Because, as unfortunate as it is, the nazis enjoy too much popular support to be wiped off the surface of the Earth.

This is also the reason the number of executions of those helping the nazi occupation of Denmark, Norway, The Netherlands etc. was very low. Simply put, the nazis, then and now, enjoy too much popular support for governments around the world to stop them.

This is also evidence that democracy will inevitably result in a new nazi regime. Remember: Hitler was democratically elected and became a dictator without even having to make a coup.

You also have to remember that after WW2, the majority of the German population still supported Hitler and the nazi regime.

A majority of the German population thought the nazi regime was superior to any other system of government.
In 1952, 25% had a good opinion of Hitler.

Hitler made an awesome car. Ya gotta give him that.

Ferdinand Porsche ripped off a pretty good Tatra, but why would I give credit to Hitler?
