To admit that Hitler did good stuff like building the Autobahn, which Ike recognized?
I'm looking forward to the day when I can give Trump credit for something like that. I wish, honestly, I could see him historically at this point.
The Nationalism/Xenophobia/border stuff is just a low hanging fruit similarity between the two men, tbh, and I'm not saying that either one is all bad in response to those issues.
Hitler seemed to have been way more effective, of course, in that regard, and and but it's a common characteristic, much like Trump's why don't we have more Scandinavian/Nordic/Aryan immigrants comments.
My own personal issue is much more with the hero worship/lying/disrespect for others and willingness to scapegoat for power as opposed to other stuff, and, if, we really get down to it, I think the biggest difference between Hitler and Trump boils down to inherited wealth and how they got started with their ascent to power.
I think they're really similar, but at the end of the day, really different, because of different origins and maybe motivations.
As to the latter, neither man has really opened up under oath.
