Nearly every day, rather every minute of every day, President Donald Trump is ridiculed by political pundits and talking heads on “big name” media shows with comparisons made between him and historically terrible and genocidal leaders, propagated through seditious, incorrect accounts. While this resistance movement has certainly targeted the President, his staff, and his family, now some in the media have turned to the Americans that continue to support Trump as their main target to attack.
Last Friday, on “Morning Joe,” MSNBC commentator Donny Deutsch compared the people who voted for President Trump to Nazis, saying “if you vote for Trump, you’re the bad guy.” This was compounded by him calling on Democrats to make the 2018 midterm election a referendum on Trump voters, not the President himself.
Deutsch made the comparison after he criticized Trump and his administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy with border enforcement.
“We can no longer say Trump’s the bad guy. If you vote for Trump, you’re the bad guy,” Deutsch said.
“If you vote for Trump, you are ripping children from parents’ arms,” he added. “What the Democrats have to do is make the next election a referendum on not who Trump is, but who you are.”
“If you vote for Trump then you, the voter, you, not Donald Trump, are standing at the border, like Nazis, going ‘you here, you here,'” Deutsch went on to say.
Another instance of this crazed comparison was when former CIA Director Michael Hayden recently tweeted a photo of a Nazi death camp with the caption, “other governments have separated mothers from children.”
Even CNN’s Wolf Blitzer thought this was going too far. In an interview with Hayden last week, Blitzer said his grandparents had been murdered at Auschwitz, and that as “bad” as the Trump policy is, “it certainly is not Auschwitz.”
The resistance movement from Democrats continues to reach new lows as it seems that those campaigning for Congress and other elected positions are emulating the disgusting tactics of those who have let their hatred of one person cloud their logic and judgement.
