Pay attention. Learn from history. Donโ€™t let this man anywhere near the White House ever again.

I'd rather have a moron that is fascist (Trump) than a smart person that is fascist I guess :)

@georgetakei

@freemo @georgetakei I might be a little biased, but we (Germany) tried the moron fascist out. He was even in prison, but later he got into power. Partly conservatives thought they could control him. So I'd rather not see one of them in power again. In this case, there would not be a US to save the world from tyranny.

@prefec2

Im not sure Hitler was an idiot. Im not sure if he was super smart either. Its hard to tell when its just reciting speaches in another language. I just cant judge his intelligence.

@georgetakei

@freemo @georgetakei This is hard to tell, but he certainly though of himself as a superior intellect whereas his book is rather an unstructured read. History usually does not repeat itself, but similar processes lead to similar results. Even with no war, there could be a lot of murder. Let's say, I'd rather not have to find out what happens when he becomes president again.

Fascism 

@freemo I'm not sure it really makes much difference. If someone is out to kill you, they can sure be dangerous without being smart. Not to mention he's an enabler of all sorts.

@krnlg I mean, yea, if they are trying to kill you (fascism doesnt mean killing but lets go with it) then yea, thats bad enough already... But if i am trying to not be killed by someone Id rather than someone be an idiot :)

Fascism 

@freemo I guess I just don't feel optimistic.
