No, they were not that different. In fact, Hitler got his ideas of racial purity from an American, Madison Grant, the author of a 1916 book called The Passing of the Great Race, which spread the doctrine of race purity all over the globe. Here's a really interesting read:

Munchkin: 'I will comply with the law' on releasing Trump tax returns

https://www.cnn.com/2019/03/14/polit...ess/index.html

Quote:
Mnuchin told lawmakers he would obey the law if he receives a written request from Congress to turn over Trump's tax returns -- but also suggested that the decision to release the returns would fall to the commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, the country's federal tax collector.
Uh-huh.

Donny Trump, career criminal

Just an incredible read. You'd have to be as stupid as Whell to still support this sleazeball.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The United States will revoke or deny visas to International Criminal Court personnel who attempt to investigate or prosecute alleged abuses committed by U.S. forces in Afghanistan or elsewhere and may do the same with those who try to take action against Israel, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Friday.

WTF??? Also, doesn't the inclusion of only Israel reflect the point that Rep. Omar was making?

Joe Biden got tongue tied over the weekend when he was unable to properly deliver a very simple line about his decision to run for President. Get used to it, another low I.Q. individual!

Says the moron who went to extensive lengths to ensure his grades were never made public. Why is that, Whell? Perhaps because, like you, Donny’s IQ is like that of a baboon?

George Conway @gtconway3d

George Conway Retweeted Bill "Slightly Dangerous" Kristol

Agree with this, but would add that *all* Americans should be thinking seriously *now* about Trump’s mental condition and psychological state, including and especially the media, Congress—and the Vice President and Cabinet.

Bill "Slightly Dangerous" Kristol @BillKristol
To Republicans who've been inclined to acquiesce in a Trump re-nomination in 2020: Read his tweets this morning. Think seriously about his mental condition and psychological state. Then tell me you're fine with him as president of the United States for an additional four years.

A Damaged Soul and a Disordered Personality
Trump’s continuing attacks on John McCain reveal a worrisome state of mind.
