Ah, some substance to your dribble. You are taking Putin's line as Trump - the most current, most powerful American Nazi-type - does. P - American Nazism and Madison Square Garden https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=170759824 P - If you don't have substantive evidence to support your contention that Biden and Zelensky have more Nazi-like characteristics than Trump, Bannon, Meadows, Gaetz, Abbott et al then you have nothing. P - If you do have more evidence than simply your empty riddle-dribble, please post it in reply to this post. P - We know your conservatives' attack on the rights of women is very American Talibanish. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=170769123
And you reply, without disputing one word in any of mine, by suggesting because Trump acts like he is a super-duper friend of Israel he can't be acting like a Nazi. Forget his irrational attacks on the press. Forget his pathological lying. Forget his attacks on the judiciary in general. Forget his via, McConnell, totally dishonorable stacking of SCOTUS. Forget his attacking every institution in America that has made America what it is. Forget his personal attempts to get Pence to not finalize the 2020 election result, and forget his inciting his toadies to violently pressure Pence to refute that election result. Forget, when president, his saying loyalty to him was more important than loyalty to the United States. That's all dripping in authoritarian Nazi-like bullshit. Your coin, big deal, does not compute. For mine all in my post to Vexari and what i've just said is even more telling than the below. Still, for you, all that aside:
Trump’s long history of trafficking in antisemitic tropes

Trump wagered that he was so popular in Israel that he could be elected prime minister, and added: “U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel — Before it is too late!”
But while this stereotype is a favorite of Trump’s — and one he has deployed increasingly since leaving office — it’s hardly the only one he has offered during his political career.
Here’s a rundown of the various tropes Trump has trafficked in.
‘Your country,’ ‘your prime minister’ and ‘your ambassador’
Trump has regularly spoken about American Jews as if Israel is their country, rather than the United States.
At a White House Hanukkah party in 2018, Trump said Vice President Mike Pence and second lady Karen Pence go to Israel “and they love your country. They love your country. And they love this country .. https://www.timesofisrael.com/trump-praises-israel-as-your-country-to-american-jews/ ” — the implication being that “this country” is distinct from “your country.”

Trump also regularly referred to his ambassador to Israel, David Friedman, as “your ambassador .. https://factba.se/trump/search#%22your%2Bambassador%22 ” while in the company of American Jews. While that could perhaps be understood as him referring to Americans' ambassador rather than Jews’, Friedman is the only ambassador Trump has used this construction for .. https://factba.se/trump/search#%22your%2Bambassador%22 , according to Factba.se .. http://factba.se/ ’s compilation of Trump’s public comments.
Dual loyalty
Relatedly, Trump has cast American Jews as insufficiently appreciative of his record on Israel, often stating or implying — as he did Sunday — that his lack of support among them is inexplicable.
“Jewish people who live in the United States don’t love Israel enough,” he said in an interview last summer .. https://www.amimagazine.org/2021/06/16/donald-j-trumps-winter-white-house/ , adding: “I believe we got 25 percent of the Jewish vote, and it doesn’t make sense. It just seems strange to me. But I did very well in Florida. I did great in Florida.”
The most popular antisemitic trope in politics is that Jews control things behind the scenes — often by virtue of their money and cunning. And Trump has also leaned into this.
And in the December 2021 interview, Trump offered perhaps his most suggestive comments on this front.
“It used to be that Israel had absolute power over Congress, and today I think it’s the exact opposite,” he said.
Jews as ‘brutal,’ ‘negotiators’
Trump has often spoken about Jewish people in extremely broad strokes, pitching them as people who stick to their own — or at least, should — and who are successful because of their business acumen.
During his 2015 speech to the Republican Jewish Coalition, he suggested that those assembled were “negotiators” without parallel.
During a 2019 speech to the Israeli American Council, Trump told those assembled: “A lot of you are in the real estate business because I know you very well. You’re brutal killers. Not nice people at all. But you have to vote for me; you have no choice.”
He summarized his point by saying these people would have to support him out of financial self-interest.
“Even if you don’t like me — some of you don’t, some of you I don’t like at all, actually — and you’re going to be my biggest supporters because you’ll be out of business in about 15 minutes” if Democrats win the election .. https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/?itid=lk_inline_manual_46 , he said.
“You just like me because my daughter happens to be Jewish,” he joked to the RJC in 2015.
He added in 2019: “I saw a poll that in the last election, I got 25 percent of the Jewish vote, and I said here I have a son-in-law and a daughter who are Jewish, I have beautiful grandchildren that are Jewish .. https://jewishinsider.com/2020/09/on-rosh-hashanah-call-trump-urges-support-for-his-reelection/ , I have all of these incredible achievements. I’m amazed that it seems to be almost automatically a Democrat vote.”
