Several pundits and media are
paralleling Donald Trump with Hitler, thus cheapening the
memory of those who died in the Holocaust. Typical are the Huffington Post and the Washington Post’s editorial board; Newsweek inquired if Trump was a fascist. Today the Huff puffed this as well.
Each one of these references cheapens the suffering of
those who suffered through the Holocaust.
If one persists in making the
comparison, one should ask:
Did Trump kill people, cremate their remains, and bury them in mass graves?
Did Donald Trump kill people and then recycle what was usable?
The simple truth is: Trump does not want to force people to
put tattoos on their arms, nor crows them in to death camps where they would
suffer torture till they were gassed, shot, or died some other horrible death,
followed by mutilating their corpses by taking out what can be reused—–and
until that happens any comparison to Hitler and/or the Nazis is not only false
and inappropriate, but it cheapens the memory of the people who suffered during
the Holocaust and those who try to honor their memories.
