      It’s even worse. Christians fight hard to make hell on earth a reality so they can live for ever in peace in make believe land when they are no longer living?! Make it make sense.

          Obviously you’re working your heaven job and spending your heaven bucks.

          That’s what supply side Jesus would want right?

      Why would they care about dead Jews from 80 years ago when trump is giving them the green light on killing Palestinians now?

        When he’s done with the Palestinians, his love for the Jewish people and Israel will evaporate.

          Probably not as long as Israel remains firmly fascist. Trump and most of the GOP are sociopaths/psychopaths. I doubt most of them actually believe the white supremacism and racism they peddle. It’s a means of class warfare to divide and conquer — to attain and maintain power. Though, as we all know, the out groups are fluid and can change at the whim of madmen.

          At this point I’m not even convinced Hitler or the Nazi senior leadership were as — at least, initially — anti-Jewish as they were sociopaths/psychopaths utilizing the pre-existing anti-Jewish sentiment to attain power. Though, there is the question whether acting racist and violently crushing all opposition reaches a point where they themselves either believe it, or wouldn’t dare voice the truth simply out of fear of being subject to the same violence they’ve used on others.

    Full quote though it’s not really any better:

    “I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.

    “Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.

    “People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.

    “No, they didn’t do that, they’d slap us,” Trump said the hostages told him about Hamas, while sitting next to the man who is currently leading Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “Their hatred is unbelievable.”

      for anyone trying to follow the conversation, I suggested murdering nazis in the above post, and apparently this was too controversial for moderators (I mean I suppose so, no reason was given)

    I don’t want to defend Trump in anyway but this is a hystirical headline meant to generate clicks and attention.

    “I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.

    “Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.

    “People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.

    “No, they didn’t do that, they’d slap us,” Trump said the hostages told him about Hamas, while sitting next to the man who is currently leading Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “Their hatred is unbelievable.”

    What I think he is trying to say in a very weird way is Nazi’s treated Jews better than Hamas does now.

    Yes the orange monkey is very stupid and crazy for saying shit like this, again I don’t want to defend him in any way but the article does not say that Trump thinks Nazi’s loved Jews.

      You’re participating in the old good tradition of sanewashing what Trump said. You don’t need to interpret that jumble of sounds as charitably as possible, he doesn’t deserve it, and he repeatedly showed that he actually means the worst most of the time. He said “nazis showed signs of love to holocaust victims” with his own stupid mouth. You don’t need to excuse him by interpreting it as if he didn’t say it.

      What do you mean hysterical headline? He said exactly what the headline said. In the full context he looks stupider but what he said is the same.

      Why are you trying to defend a guy saying the Nazis were gooder than Hamas? Why would you ever take that fight unless you are a liar or stupid?

      I’m reminded of the initial framework that Auschwitz used for Jews. Many of them came voluntarily, because the Germans were making vague promises of “We’re planning a Jewish settlement where you will be safe, and kept separate from the German Aryan future.” So I could be reaching, but maybe he’s interpreting something around that - the idea of using “nice gestures” (lies) to lure people in and humanize themselves.

      Of course, it’s a reach in any regard to interpret something coherent from Donald Trump, especially when regarding history.

    Not literally - several sentences are being condensed together, but it’s abundantly clear that Bonespurs still has his head completely up his ass. I can’t believe that waste of oxygen is representing the United States to the rest of the world. AGAIN.

        All I can come up with is Con men gonna Con. Americans have been progressively dumbing themselves down for about the last century. Voting doesn’t reflect being informed or thoughtful anymore, it reflects effective marketing. Against all rational expectations the MAGA campaign knew the market and pushed the right buttons better than the Democrats did.
