I think what you find is that when the leader sets a standard for himself which is above reproach there are less instances of that person being called out. Most every other president that was white (unfortunately) was not called out to the degree Trump has and thatis because they held themselves to a high standard for the position because they were elected to represent this country and all of the people and with that comes great responsibility and leadership. Trump does not hold himself to a higher standard

According to Slate, Trump is most similar to fascist dictator Francisco Franco of Spain in the 1930s. Supported by the rich and church, they are repressive leaders who rule without restraint. Controlling media, they distort reality through misinformation, manipulation and intimidation. They declare emergencies when none exist. For examples, crime, trade and immigration. They paint every real and potential critics as a moral threat while promoting themselves as the nation's protector. They curtail freedoms, undermine institutions, put troops on city streets and establish authoritarian regimes.

Der Führer tries to demonize Democrats to an audience of top US military officers
A. Blake - Tuesday in Quantico. There were many questions about Defense Secretary Hegseth’s highly unusual summoning of generals and admirals from around the world for a presentation. For [der Führer of the MAGA Reich], at least, the occasion appeared to be about getting them on board with his [MAGA-fascism] political program...
“If you want to applaud, you applaud,” Trump said at the start of his rambling speech, noting how silent the generals and admirals were.
“If you DON'T like what I’m saying, you can leave the room. Of course, there goes your rank. There goes your future.”

trump's fascist MAGA-lieutenant Pete "Heinrich Himmler" Hegseth said:
"We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country [ie, Democrats] No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement," Hegseth said, adding that [his] military will "kill people and break things for a living!"

His speech was pure insanity. How this fox news drunk can be in charge of our military is mind numbing. He belongs in a mental ward for a long time.
He fails to grasp that every single powerful empire in history have failed at some point and when the rest of the world has had enough of us, even our allies will turn on us and we will be no more.

NPR reports that over 500 celebrities have launched the "Committee for first amendment" to defend free speech in the US. Fascist Trump administration is engaged in campaign to silence critics in government, media, judiciary, academia and entertainment.

Who is left at the BLS for Trump to fire with yet another predictable and reoccurring adjustment to an inaccurate and useless labor number? Who would have thought that it takes 3-4-5-6 months to get a firm final number since they use flim flam optional surveys from an extremely small sample size of corps that rarely if ever stands at the original figure?
Libs are pulling those strings trying to make Trump look bad..

Hitler was actually quite good at giving speeches. If he had addressed your leading generals, 20% of you would have already been killed. One of the main things that brought him to power. Comparing Trump and Hitler in that regard would be like comparing a random toddler to Einstein in IQ.

Yeah, I know you Danes were quite fond of Hitler.
The man was a gifted orator. He came along at the right time with a German populace whose ears were at a point ready for such a message. The man wasn't a genius though. There's nothing that can be pointed to that supports such a notion.
You really do just pull stuff out of your ass. Baseless things, simply to troll. Yet all it does is make you sound ignorant.

So what ? We didn't fight the Nazi regime when we thought it was just a war - none knew any of that j.ew stuff (until very late into the war) and you as a nation also first started really caring when you were attacked during Pearl habour (so don't make you guys more a saint than you are !! - and we were never attacked - so us starting caring actually shows as much of a good will as you guys in my opinion - we fucking thrieved under Nazi rule) - Americans are also fond of Netanyahu, even though everyone knows what that man does !!! So what is your point? And yes Hitler was a great speaker compared to Trump - When you hear Trump speak even on subjects where he is right - your main question is how he was how that idiot was able to put his pants on in the morning - with Hitler people rallied behind him and killed them because they believed in what he preached

Trump seemed to try and recruit the generals and admirals to his domestic crackdown.
He and Hegseth tried to pit them against Democrats, academia, supposed left-wing radicals and the media.
Trump suggested the generals and admirals would be crucial to his fight against the “enemy from within” and could use the homeland as a “training ground.”

On Friday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi 'dog killer" Noem said [her arm of trump's GESTAPO] would send additional federal agents and the Justice Department was launching a civil rights investigation into whether the Portland Police Bureau engages in viewpoint discrimination.
City leaders adamantly deny any such discrimination and said they don't need the National Guard to help handle the single block outside the ICE facility where the protests have occurred.

Disturbing that Trump wants to use cities as training grounds for the fight against enemies from within. Illegal to deploy military against US citizens in US cities. Federal judge blocks deployment of national guard in Portland. But Trump refusal to comply shows contempt for the rule of law which is among characteristics of fascism. Former Trump lawyer Ty Cobbs warns that re-electing Trump was the greatest mistake of voters.

America has laws regarding use of military against US citizens and violence. Oddly, MAGAs act as though those laws don't apply whenever it suits them. In fact they seem to think that many US laws don't need to be enforced if it affects those they consider to be their leaders or conservatives. They created a pro-fascism cult which claims Christianity but CLEARLY does not practice it, much like the Mafia depicted in films. The MAGAs seem to revel in causing pain/suffering to the masses, blaming it all on Liberals, & then cause riots and scream victim-hood when public backlash focuses on them.
