Incoming Republican Congresswoman From Illinois Proclaims "Hitler Was Right!"

New Illinois Representative Mary Miller has apologized for comments she made on Tuesday

Miller earlier announced she was joining with other Republicans in objecting to Congress certifying the election of Joe Biden, who beat President Donald Trump in the popular and electoral votes.

At the rally, Miller, said, “Each generation has the responsibility to teach the next generation. You know, if we win a few elections we’re still going to be losing unless we win the hearts of our children. It’s the battle. Hitler was right on one thing that whoever has the youth has the future. Our children are being propagandized.”

Little late for an apology now, don't you think?

( She grew up just a few miles from where I did! 😲 )

The funny thing is that in most cases this would end someone's career but in her case it might even get her more support

@EuphoricTurtle You are right. A sad indictment of America today..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman it's terrifying that something like this can happen to the country that has been the shinning beacon of Democracy in this world.

@EuphoricTurtle I think it demonstrates how far America has strayed from its ideals. Two forces are at work here. The first being the balance between people being afraid of their government, rather than governments being afraid of their people (Which they really should be) It is that fear which SHOULD make the Govt vigilant in always acting FOR the people, which America government clearly no longer does unless you have money and influence. Trump enabled this.. Trump incited this.. But Trump didnt create the problems. He just took advantage of them.😷
