    Is your country great again? Was so difficult to vote for her instead to avoid this fascistic nightmare, wasn’t it?

      Democrats bear almost as much blame for nominating “lesser-evil” candidates over someone who is actually good.

      Donald Trump won because Bernie lost, twice.

      That slogan “Make America great again” made us Germans very uneasy from the start, cause we remember the last guy who promised us (very literally) to make Germany great again.

          Of course he got it from Hitler, who got the idea from America’s “Manifest Destiny” philosophy. It’s fascist turtles all the way down …

          I know that Trump secretly admires moustache guy. But I honestly don’t think he is well-read or intelligent enough to realize it’s exactly the same slogan moustache guy used. With Trump, willful ignorance is always the most likely option because malicious intent requires a degree of intellect he does not possess.

              Well, I still doubt he read them all.

              As a German native speaker, I have listened to almost all of the publicly available Hitler speeches, and I found it incredibly hard to keep paying attention. It’s as bad as Mein Kampf - just weird sequences of relatively incoherent segments of his twisted world views. Very hard to follow.

              And Trump is well known for his extremely short attention span. I would be very, very surprised if that man managed to read even a single Hitler speech from start to finish in one sitting.

              No, underestimating the capacity of a large amount of idiots to recognize all the flaws of this unspeakably horrible person and elect the fucker nonetheless, that’s what got us here.

          I’d assume it was Ronald Reagan since it was also his slogan in the 1980’s.

          It’s pretty clear that Trump is a fascist piece of shit but this game he is playing has been going on a lot longer than people think.

      You deserve it for refusing to vote for a viable candidate. You don’t get to blame people who rejected a genocidal candidate, blame those who called genocide lesser evil.

      Maybe when everyone is on the same page about rejecting evil, something will change. But no, you’ll downvote and feel self righteous about it as you cheerlead for another fascist (Newsom).
