When idiots compare Trump to Hitler

Some sad sack actually took the time to produce that image. Mind boggling.
I really was not a big fan of Trump as I preferred Cruz and was concerned Trump is not really the least bit conservative... But, the left and establishment are so incredibly worried by a Trump victory that I think I must consider voting for Trump. The enemy of those guys must be good for tax paying Americans who love their country and its people.
Authoritarianism. Demagoguery. Xenophobia, and all manner of "us vs. them." Inciting violence. The list goes on but doesn't really have to.
Thanks for asking.

The Geography of Trumpers
The analysis shows that Trump counties are places where white identity mixes with long-simmering economic dysfunctions.
The places where Trump has done well cut across many of the usual fault lines of American politics — North and South, liberal and conservative, rural and suburban. What they have in common is that they have largely missed the generation-long transition of the United States away from manufacturing and into a diverse, information-driven economy deeply intertwined with the rest of the world.
“It’s a nonurban, blue-collar and now apparently quite angry population,” said William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution. “They’re not people who have moved around a lot, and things have been changing away from them, but they live in areas that feel stagnant in a lot of ways.”
Mr. Trump has his share of support from the affluent and the well educated, but in the places where support for Mr. Trump runs the strongest, the proportion of the white population that didn’t finish high school is relatively high. So is the proportion of working-age adults who neither have a job nor are looking for one. The third-strongest correlation among hundreds of variables tested: the preponderance of mobile homes.
Trump counties include places that have voted for both Republicans and Democrats, and the strongest predictors of Trump support include how a county responded to two very different third-party candidates: Trump territory showed stronger support for the segregationist George Wallace in the 1968 election than the rest of the country, and substantially weaker support for the centrist former Republican John B. Anderson in 1980.
Mr. Trump has performed well thus far in Appalachian coal counties and in rural parts of Alabama and Mississippi, which are coping with economic and social dysfunctions like high unemployment rates and heroin addiction. But the Times analysis also shows the common thread between those places and more urban locations where Mr. Trump has either done well or is projected to.
The high proportion of whites without a high school diploma in these places — the single strongest predictor of Trump support of those we tested — has lasting consequences for incomes, for example. The education pay gap starts small when people are early in their career before widening over the decades of their working lives. College graduates are less likely to become unemployed and more likely to find a new job quickly if they do, and they are comparatively few in Trump-land.

I've got concerns about Trump, but I haven't heard anything remotely racist from him, and no comments at all about blacks. Demonstrators invade his event, including a black guy two cops have to drag away from the podium, played over and over by CNN along with signs accusing him of racism. Then they put a SNL skit on their "news" site about Ben Carson getting attacked by mistake at a Trump event, with "Trump" saying not him, he's one of the good ones.
Pure manufacture of an issue with the complicity of CNN at a critical juncture.

Yes, it's not Trump so much as the people he attracts. From the above Times piece...

Can you not even understand what I wrote? How can you even type then? OMG
I would say Obama is 99% like Mussolini.
