Sean Spicer Fails with Hitler Analogy

via GIPHY


The hapless White House spokesperson for President Donald Trump is not having a good week.

Sean Spicer broke Godwin's Law, which states that once you bring up Hitler you've already lost the argument anyway. He was trying to explain the President Assad (whom he calls "Ashad") of Syria was more evil than Hitler when he gassed young children. Well, anyone with a 5th-grade education will see the major flaw in his argument because what about Hitler's use of gas chambers - hello?



Spicer then tried to derp-splain the gaffe with a line about Hitler never gassing "his own people." Well, you got that right - he didn't gas too many Nazis or blonde Aryan Germans, but he gassed just about everybody else - Jews, Gypsies, Poles, Czechs... etc.

Then Spicer tried to apologize again, bringing up "Holocaust Centers" - his name for Concentration Camps.





By the end of the day, Nancy Pelosi and others were calling for his resignation.

Did I mention that all this happened on the second day of Passover and just before Easter?

We could also ask who gave Spicey this dreadful talking point. Clearly it was someone who hates him and also hates Jews. Could it be ...Satan? I mean ...Bannon?

From NBC News
...Spicer, speaking from the White House podium at the daily press briefing, said that Hitler, whom he called "despicable," did not use "the gas on his own people the same way Assad used them."
He sought to clarify his remarks in three separate follow-up statements — which did little to help — and then provided a full-blown apology.
"To draw any kind of comparison to the Holocaust was inappropriate and insensitive," he told NBC News.
. . . On Tuesday, the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect called on President Donald Trump to can Spicer.
"Sean Spicer now lacks the integrity to serve as White House press secretary, and President Trump must fire him at once," Steven Goldstein, the organization's executive director, said in a statement.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi echoed those sentiments.
"While Jewish families across America celebrate Passover, the chief spokesman of this White House is downplaying the horror of the Holocaust," she wrote in a statement. "Sean Spicer must be fired, and the President must immediately disavow his spokesman's statements. Either he is speaking for the President, or the President should have known better than to hire him."


Update: Melissa McCarthy as "Spicey" Apologizes

Elizabeth Warren Slams "Loser" Trump

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Elizabeth Warren wrote a scathing post directed at Donald Trump on her Facebook page. And just to make sure he would get the message big time, she also tweeted select sentences from her diatribe! It's a sight to behold! One of her main goals was not just to stir up anger against Trump, but to sound a warning to Democrats not to be complacent or view Trump as just another clown. He could become a Hitler or any other tyrant.

Trump's response? True to form, he insulted her as "That Indian" referring to Warren's Cherokee heritage that was used by her opponent in the Massachusetts Senate race, Scott Brown:





From ABC News:

“Who is that, the Indian? You mean the Indian?” Trump asked, referring to Warren, who has said she has Native American ancestry.
Warren’s contention became a point of controversy during her 2012 U.S. Senate race when her Republican opponent, former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown, who demanded proof. Warren has repeatedly defended her statements.
The Republican frontrunner was asked by reporters about the Democratic senator’s attacks during the event at the Trump International Hotel in Washington D.C.
This is not the first time Trump has invoked Warren’s heritage. He did so in an interview with New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd published over the weekend.
“I think it’s wonderful because the Indians can now partake in the future of the country," Dowd quoted Trump as saying. "She’s got about as much Indian blood as I have.”

Let’s be honest – Donald Trump is a loser. Count all his failed businesses. See how he kept his father’s empire afloat...

Nazi Trump Demands Sieg Heil from Crowd - But Not Racist Of Course

Is Trump a full-on racist? He spent most of 2012 attacking President Obama with vacuous Birtherisms, demanding to see his "real" birth certificate -- from Africa.

But oh no, most Republicans wouldn't say that is racist! Is it racism if most Republicans agree with you, or at least when Sheriff Joe Arpaio agrees with you? He's an expert on race relations and minorities, right?



Then again, last December, Trump said the families of Muslim criminals should be punished as a form of retribution. But again, Lord no, said the pundits clutching their pearls - that doesn't make Trump a racist anymore than wanting to deport ALL illegal aliens no matter what their status, or calling all Mexican immigrants criminals and rapists. Heavens, no - how could that make someone a racist?

Last week, Trump got an endorsement from a real undisputed racist - David Duke - ex-Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. But oh, goodness me, that wasn't Trump's fault, even when he wouldn't disavow them on national TV just before the Super Tuesday elections. Eventually he DID disavow Duke, so all is well, nothing to see here.



Well, how about this: in the last week, Trump - still the frontrunner of the Republican Party for President of the United States - has started asking the supporters at his events to stand and raise their right hands to swear they will vote for him. You know, like Hitler's loyal did during his speeches. It's not subtle at all, even to the now panicked pundits who let this crap go on for so long.

Trump is making a big show of getting a "Sieg Heil" from citizens of the United States while the whole world is watching, and our allies are chilled to the bone by what they see. And we should scared be too, whether you think Trump is Hitler, Mussolini, or just a big rich doofus obsessed with power - really what difference does it make? He's dangerous.


























Abraham Foxman, ex-leader of the Jewish Anti-Defamation League via RawStory
“As a Jew who survived the Holocaust, to see an audience of thousands of people raising their hands in what looks like the ‘Heil Hitler’ salute is about as offensive, obnoxious and disgusting as anything I thought I would ever witness in the United States of America,” said Foxman, who was born in Poland in 1940 and was saved from the Nazis by his Catholic nanny.
He told the newspaper (Times of Israel) that the gesture’s symbolism was obvious and troubling.
“It is a fascist gesture,” Foxman said. “He is smart enough — he always tells us how smart he is — to know the images that this evokes. Instead of asking his audience to pledge allegiance to the United States of America, which in itself would be a little bizarre, he’s asking them to swear allegiance to him.”

From "The Moment of Truth: We Must Stop Trump" Op-Ed by Harvard Professor Danielle Allen in Washington Post
Like any number of us raised in the late 20th century, I have spent my life perplexed about exactly how Hitler could have come to power in Germany. Watching Donald Trump’s rise, I now understand. Leave aside whether a direct comparison of Trump to Hitler is accurate. That is not my point. My point rather is about how a demagogic opportunist can exploit a divided country.
. . . One can see both of these phenomena unfolding now. The first shows itself, for instance, when journalists cover every crude and cruel thing that comes out of Trump’s mouth and thereby help acculturate all of us to what we are hearing. Are they not just doing their jobs, they will ask, in covering the Republican front-runner? Have we not already been acculturated by 30 years of popular culture to offensive and inciting comments? Yes, both of these things are true. But that doesn’t mean journalists ought to be Trump’s megaphone. ...
. . . The only way to stop him, then, is to achieve just that kind of coordination across party lines and across divisions within parties. We have reached that moment of truth.
Republicans, you cannot count on the Democrats to stop Trump. I believe that Hillary Clinton will win the Democratic nomination, and I intend to vote for her, but it is also the case that she is a candidate with significant weaknesses, as your party knows quite well. The result of a head-to-head contest between Clinton and Trump would be unpredictable. Trump has to be blocked in your primary.


Dana Milbank on "Trump's Flirtation With Facism
So it has come to this: The front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, at a campaign rally in Orlando Saturday, leading supporters in what looked very much like a fascist salute.
“Can I have a pledge? A swearing?” Trump asked, raising his right hand and directing his followers to do the same. He then led them in pledging allegiance — not to the flag, but to Trump, for which they stand and for whom they vowed to vote.
. . . The Germans, too, find him dangerous — and they should know. Der Spiegel, the German newsmagazine, last month called Trump “the world’s most dangerous man” and leader of a “hate-filled authoritarian movement” who “inflames tensions against ethnic minorities …while ignoring democratic conventions.”

Right Wing Goes Godwin on Guns When Biden Says Executive Orders Possible

Photobucket

I want to make it clear that we are not going to get caught up in the notion (that) unless we can do everything we're going to do nothing. It's critically important (that) we act.
. . . The President is going to act, there are executive orders, executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet. But we're compiling it all with the help of the Attorney General and all the rest of the cabinet members as well as legislative action, we believe is required.
~ Vice President Joe Biden via Reuters



Photobucket
source: Atlantic



The Drudge Report seemed to reach a new level of gun-confiscation hysteria Tuesday afternoon when it used photos of Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin to illustrate the headline, "WHITE HOUSE THREATENS 'EXECUTIVE ORDERS' ON GUNS," linking to a story about Joe Biden's brief statement about his gun-proposal committee.
. . . Of course, this is all an illustration of Godwin's Law: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1." ("Hitler ate sugar," a Daria character said.) But if Drudge's image choice was shocking, it's another example of the phenomenon of the very right wing talking to itself and no one else.
~ The Atlantic

What Drudge is correctly evoking is that both Stalin and Hitler first disarmed their populations before beginning the worst excesses of their reigns. By executive order.
~ comment by Big Boy on Michelle Malkin's Blog





Biden can BITE ME. Much like Mahatma Ghandi when asked by his British Overlords how he was going to kick them out of India, "If 70 million Indians refused to do what you say, what can you do?"
THE ANSWER is the same here.
There are 100,000,000 American GUN owners. IF they say 'register' or 'turn em in', if only 10,000,000 say "NO", what are they going to do?
IF 1,000,000 decide to hold a revolution, what will they do?
Obama is overconfident in his abilities. He is drunk with power. He is stupid in the fact that he THINKS, everyone will just DO what he says.
AND it will only take a few GENERALS, and a few thousand troops to say "F*** NO." For him to have a revolution on his hands.
. . . AND when the criminals and terrorists come to America and start killing your family and friends, then give us a call. AND the AMERICAN GUN OWNER will be the reason you will be free again.
THE REASON the JAPANESE never invaded the USA in WW2 was because ADMIRAL ISOKORU YAMAMOTO said: "there would be a sniper behind each blade of grass." KNOWING Americans owned guns and would defend their land. UNLIKE IN JAPAN and GERMANY at the time, their populations were REQUIRED to turn in guns and weapons. WE all know what happened after that. THEY became dictatorships and fought wars of conquest.
~ comment by Jim on Washington Times





Obama to follow in footsteps of Hitler, Stalin with 'executive order' disarmament of the American people
It's official. President Obama is going to march America down the dark halls of history by following in the footsteps of Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse Tung and all the other gun-grabbing madmen who have exploited fear to achieve the total concentration of power in the hands of dictatorial government.America is headed into civil war.
. . . This is the moment when America either falls to tyrants or rises to resist it.
Gun grabbers actually want your guns so they can murder you with them
The real agenda of gun grabbers has now become crystal clear: They want to kill gun owners and anyone who doesn't bow down to the Hitlerian madness of the Obama administration.
Last night on the Piers Morgan show on CNN, guests openly threatened Alex Jones' children with being killed, and then one guest openly suggested that Piers Morgan shoot Alex Jones with an AR-15 -- followed by laughter from the other guests on the show. It is a felony crime to threaten to murder a person, yet none of these guests who appeared on Piers Morgan have been arrested.
. . . It's all coming out. This is their true agenda: mass murder and / or genocide. Those who support gun disarmament of the American people are supporting mass murder: Michael Moore, Piers Morgan, Biden, Obama, Cuomo... they are all proponents of mass murder. They are the very same kind of people who once supported Hitler and Stalin, and now they're creating a new Hitler in Barack Obama, the would-be dictator who is thrusting America straight into a new civil war.
Read history: Gun confiscation leads to mass murder by government ("democide")

Obama May Use Executive Order to Grab Guns, Warns Biden
~ NewsMax

Obama to America: Screw the Second Amendment, I’ll take your guns by executive order.
~ doriengrey1 on Wilderness of Mirrors Blog

OBAMA GUN GRAB THROUGH 'EXECUTIVE ACTION'
~ Headline on Fox Nation

Biden: Obama Will Bypass Congress for Gun Control
~ Breitbart

The very moment executive order is used to infringe upon the 2nd amendment he becomes WORSE than George III.
~ comment by cds8745 on Breitbart

The Founding Fathers never envisioned Executive Orders being used to restrict our Constitutional rights. We live in a republic, not a dictatorship.
I will use every means at my disposal to combat the agenda of the Executive branch to undermine our Second Amendment rights. I will also fight any legislative action that is taken to implement more gun control. Americans don’t want their Second Amendment freedoms restricted in any way and I will continue to fully support the right to bear arms for all law abiding citizens.
~ Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC)
