Angry about our recent election, I have heard some call Trump a new Hitler. Nonsense. Trump is no Hitler. Certainly, Hitler was much smarter. However, Trump does employ similar tactics, and would clearly love America to be a police state answering only to him. Take his Cabinet picks, thoroughly unqualified, their only “value” being complete loyalty to Trump.
Then there’s his ill-advised tariffs, and the potential is frightening. Hint: China won’t pay for this, we will. Hopefully someone will track the number of businesses that fail and the higher prices we will see due to this.
Trump called the now-infamous Jan. 6 attack a “day of love.” Not that they would or should, but if Democrats did this — attack the Capitol attempting to overturn Trump’s victory — would he call that a “day of love,” and insist that none of those involved should be prosecuted? Of course not. Trump only claims “voter fraud” when he fears losing. If he wins, it’s all good.
It remains to be seen if our nation, freedom and democracy will survive, but do not be surprised if before his term is over, Trump tries to find a way to stay in power permanently.
