Before I get in over my head here, I am **NOT** suggesting Karoline Leavitt, T’s press Secretary is a Nazi.

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely…She enjoys being cruel to the media a little too much…if there’s ever a breakdown in American society, she’s the type you’d want to keep an eye on.
