Enough with the Hitler Comparisons

5/29/2016

It should be clear that I am no fan of Donald Trump. He is a brash, egomaniacal bully who is exploiting our fears. He makes wild statements with very little forethought. As a candidate, he is a mean and nasty pit bull.
That being said, he certainly is no Adolph Hitler. He is not proposing death camps, concentration camps or anything like that. Outside of his horrible comments toward Hispanics and Muslims, I cannot recall a single racist statement. Despite all this, a search on “Trump Hitler” yields 2,600,000 results.
I am sick and tired of those that exploit racial issues for political advantage. Barack Obama promised to be a post-racial president but he has worked to increase the racial divide. We need to recognize that the era of Jim Crow is long over and only a few on the fringe support those ideas.
There is so many negative things to say about Trump so let’s get over all this Hitler nonsense.

At long last this idiotic shutdown is over. Hopefully cooler heads prevail and it doesn’t start up again.

The real story is that 800,000 government workers are back on the job and many millions of people are no longer inconvenienced.

Unfortunately, that is not the story we are hearing in the media. Their story is about how Speaker Pelosi beat President Trump. He got himself into this mess. She decided that all that mattered was winning. The harm done to the people involved was of no concern whatsoever. A good leader puts the good of the people over political gamesmanship,

it would be nice to think that both people have learned their lesson and will try to do what is best for the
country. I sure wouldn’t bet on it.
