Trump Isn't Like Hitler


After reading this article "Are Hitler-Trump Comparisons Fair? A Holocaust Survivor Tells His Son – TheWrap" here is my response. 


I've often thought that some Americans acted like Nazis. I see it in the religious groups who think they are the 'only' chosen ones who will get into Heaven. I see it in every religion, in fact. Let's be honest, the Jews have always claimed to be 'the Chosen Ones" and that hasn't changed. Many Christians are willing to let some Gentiles into Heaven as long as they follow certain steps but still the question of their worthiness is often tested and in doubt by most of them. 
Fortunately, most religious groups don't think they have to exterminate anyone in order to keep them out of their world or their Heaven. They are content to wait until heathens die naturally to spend an eternity in their Hell. 
There have been many Hitler-like leaders in the world's history, Hitler is only one of them. 
Hitler was evil, insane and egotistical and he fed the fears of many who followed him and willingly killed innocent people by his orders. 
Hitter wasn't the first, however, willing to kill because of fears and greed. 
The greed for land, money and power combined with a fear that a people other than our own would rise up and destroy what has been accumulated has infected the hearts, minds and souls of many people. 
Millions of African Americans were killed for the same reasons. Millions of American Indians were killed for the same reason. 
Do we need to fear Donald Trump? Is he really planning to be another Hitler? 
First, Hitler had no children, no descendants that might be punished for his actions. Trump has 5 children, several grandchildren and it appears his children will have many more children coming in the future. Men with descendants rarely commit atrocious acts such as those committed by Hitler. 
It is obvious Trump absolutely adores his children and grandchildren and it's hard to imagine that he would risk their lives and their future by acting like Hitler. 
Hitler was not born to wealthy parents. He lost both parents by the age of 18. Trump was born into a wealthy family and both parents lived long lives. 
Second, Hitler was clearly unstable from an early age and time increased his fearfulness until insane "unreasonable" thinking destroyed millions of lives, including his own. Hitler was a "little" man who wanted to be "somebody." 
Almost every human being attempts to say what they think others want to hear. This doesn't make them a Hitler. Politicians have been doing it for thousands of years, because it purchases their seat in politics. 
Trump rarely says what people think he should say. Trump is already "somebody" and doesn't need an "ego" boost. Trump isn't saying what others want to hear, he is saying what He Thinks. 
What is wrong with demanding every person in America be required to follow the rules and laws? Why would one group be allowed to break laws while the rest must follow them? Why do I have to pay speeding tickets and have insurance and some people can just come in to our country and be allowed to ignore the laws and rules that the rest of us have to follow? 
What makes the concept, that ALL people who come into the country be required to follow the procedures and the laws be Hitler-like? 
Aren't the people who are not following the laws of our country being disrespectful and trying to claim they are Special by not following our laws? Why are they privileged to deny laws and the rest of us must follow them? 
This isn't about trying to exterminate a group of people, which is what Hitler tried to do. This is about demanding everyone be required to follow the laws of our land. If the laws are too complicated (like the tax laws) then change them. But, don't continue to tell the majority of the people in our country that "IT'S OKAY" for SOME people to break the laws because SOME laws are more important than others. To have TRUE equality we must be treated equally and laws must be followed equally. 
We are seeking equality for all, not the DEATH of one group of people. 
Trump isn't like Hitler and those of us who believe in him are not Hitler-like followers. I do not want anyone harmed or killed or even ejected from the country. I want everyone to follow the same laws and stop the "special privileges" and "special treatment" given to certain people. 
This is another attempt by those who desire to remain Special and Privileged - those who view themselves as Above the Law being the very thing they accuse Trump and his supporters of being - Like Hitler. 
It's WRONG to support anyone who believes that any race, gender, age or group is entitled to break the laws of our country and ignore the requirements that everyone else must follow.  
Get your facts straight and stop twisting the truth. We aren't the ones "acting like Hitler." Follow the laws of this land, go back to your own country or get out if you don't want equality for all.
