The Parallels Between Trump And Mussolini | Morning Joe | MSNBC
*I called it in 2015, and I was right. Trump and his followers are a pack of fascist wanna-be’s, and I THANK GOD we escaped this disaster by the skin of our teeth. Let us be forever vigilant against this threat from within.*
Trump is indeed a Criminal, and the likes of Hannity and Carlson are bigger Criminals for misleading people.
There is no choice in this situation All those whom encouraged paid into plotted with the domestic terrorist
Will destroy our Constitution
LlBERT AND JUSTICE
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW
THESE TERRORIST WITH TRUMP CRUZ HAWLEY TRUMP SONS ALL INVOLVED MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE IF NOT OPEN THE PRISONS GAMA BAY WILL BE SHOWN OUR LAWS AND JUSTICE MEANS NOTHING
NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW
IF THERE IS NO JUSTICE FOR THE MANY MANY CRIMES AGAINST ALL OF THE AMERICA PEOPLE BY TRUMP AND ALL THOSE THAT BLINDLY FOLLOW HIM WE HAVE LOST WHAT MANY OF US THAT BELIEVE WE ARE BETTER TTHAN THIS
THOSE WHOMM BELIEVE LIFE UNDER TRUMP AND HIS DESIRE TO BE KING I ASK DO YOUR RESEARCH INTO LIFE FOR THE PEOPLE IN RUSSIA SUADIA ARABIA TURKEY. BEFORE WE HAND OUR COUNTRY TO A WANNA BE DICTATOR BEFORE WE GIVE UP ON FREEDOM LIIBERTY JUSTICE POSPERITY
FOR ALL. PURSIUT OF HAPPINESS OR THERE IS ALTERNATIVE
What ? This is 2020 Americans should know better .
I’ve been saying this since his first speech. Even the mannerism are the same. Spooky
This is an Ad.
Not a news story
Must read her book!!!
Mussolini served time in prison and got injured in war. Trump have none of these experiences. He is only a fascist fan doing cosplay.
Progressive here….we told ya’ll he was a fascist back in 2015 but noooooooo we were overreacting
The historical reconstruction is not reliable.
And still refuse to admit why either came to power. Every nation liberals have ever taken control of was destroyed. And they usually do a good bit of damage to the nations around them as well.
Check history Mussolini ended up being killed and hung upside down by his feet in the town square
STOP COVERING TRUMP. PLEASE LET IT GO. HIGHLIGHT THE NEW ADMINS CORONAVIRUS PLAN AND THE WEAKNESSES IN THE OLD BUT WHAT WE NEED IS TO LET THE NAME OF “TRUMP” FADE AWAY ASAP. I KNOW ITS HARD BUT STOP!
COVER WHEN IMPEACHMENT STARTS THEN YOU HAVE NEWS. RIGHT NOW, LET TRUMP NOT BE.
“Let’s talk about Trump’s accomplishments…” video by Beau of the Fifth Column explained this as well. The 14 characteristics of fascism. A good video that I recommend everyone should watch.
Nah, the American system is too flawed. I bet my bottom dollar that the real instigators like Trump’s family, Bannon, Flynn, Stones and certain members in congress, senate and cabinet – the rich and powerful – will get their fingers tapped at most. Trump will get nothing more than a ban for holding an office – something he hardly will want anyway after finding out that those positions are not just ceremonial.
There are some important differences. Mussolini ended up hung upside-down from a gas station awning .. whereas Trump hasn’t yet had that happen, although it might happen if his fans ever realize that he knowingly lied to them about the results and the integrity of the election just so he could milk them for donations for an additional two months.
Get drunk and CALL him at 12 o’clock with more of Hate. Talk.
Always thought Trump was closer to Mussolini than Hitler. My sister-in-law disagreed. Her background is in education. Mine is in the legal field. And we wonder why we score so low in this country when it comes to education.
Mussolini was a coward he betrayed his own people and backed Hitler as he did when he backed franco in Spanish civil war
Just because we all acknowledge that 45 wants to be a dictator…..what about the 74 million people who wants him to be one???Folks prepare yourselves…..the government dodged a major blow and it wasn’t because they could have regained the capitol on their own….45 really was just showing how EASY it could have been to overthrow the government!
It’s a good thing that most of America saw right through this Mussolini wanna be. Too bad he had to steal statements from someone else; I guess it’s cause he dunt know nothing, no how.
Lock him up
Trump is the responsible of the insurrection,he deserves to be in jail
This impeachment and Stalinist persecution wreaks of facism itself. It harkens back to Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Mao and present day Xi. Impeaching and convicting someone for exercising 1st Amendment rights in this case sets a horrible precedent against our 1st Amendment rights for everyone and is very dangerous. It will be the end of free speech and limitation on the main stream media will follow. This will have to be challenged by the supreme court and in the meantime, wastes time and resources that should be focused on important things all the while it only serves a political agenda while instigating potential future hatred and violence that serves no unifying purpose degrading the freedoms we should have in this country.
