It’s not like any candidate was actually good but they did pick the worst one.

There are dozens of groups actively campaigning against Trump and numerous popular protests, not to mention all of his current indictments. People are aware.
Hitler rose to power in an entirely different political situation with a different candidate in different economic, social, and technological circumstances.
Germany was at a historically low point economically, the US is doing well.
Hitler was voted in, trump was voted out.
There was low awareness of and global outcry against hitler, while today entire countries, including the US, protest against Trump policies.
Trump has been found liable for inciting a violent insurrection and even been taken off two ballots.
Receive said none of that would ever happen, trump would never face any consequences, and they were wrong.
People are seeing what is happening politically with trump, and they are also seeing these incorrect doom and gloom posts equivocating trump and Hitler encouraging everyone to shrug their shoulders and accept their fate.
This post is wrong and it's cowardly, ignorant premise is wrong. It is not the same thing happening again, this asshole has already been voted out once and can be voted out again.
Stop resigning yourself to a world you don't want and make a change.
Stop telling others they're done for when they aren't.
trump lost four years ago, before he was ever find liable for rape, treason and insurrection.
Make sure anyone who shows a glimmer of support for trump knows they're supporting a rapist.
