    Full quote though it’s not really any better:

    “I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.

    “Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.

    “People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.

    “No, they didn’t do that, they’d slap us,” Trump said the hostages told him about Hamas, while sitting next to the man who is currently leading Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “Their hatred is unbelievable.”

      I always knew about the gaschambers, but never really thought about how it was done, until I saw this video recently

      https://youtu.be/_p5Yvl2PbBU

      It made me realize just how fucked up these people where.

          I visited auschwitz when I was 15 on a achool trip, the entire place felt very dark. But I was too young (and stupid) to really understand the horrors that happened at that place.

        The first time I got chills from an animated YouTube video. Crazy to think that people who are OK with this still exist and walk among us.

    Did I read that right ?

    He asked “was there any sign of love?”

    And the answer was basically “no”

    He didn’t say that the Nazis did but he claimed it?

    He didn’t seem to say it outright, but that’s enough for the liberal masses to skew his words

      It was a bit of a rhetorical question I think. The quote was a bit difficult to read and it took me a couple tries to get it

      “I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.

      “Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said

        To detrumpify / reiterate, because reading what Trump says always feels like a stroke even if you’re not experiencing one:

        How “Germany” treated Jews, showing signs of love like:

        • Gave them ‘help’
        • Liked them
        • Winking
        • Gave extra bread sometimes
        • Gave extra meals sometimes

        How Hamas treated hostages:

        • Not as well as Nazis

        Good lord. Apparently Auschwitz was a hot bed of *checks notes* undesired winking? /s

      he supposedly asked that to the hostages, about hamas. he asked “was there any sign of love, like what happened in germany?”. unless you know another german story involving jewish prisoners, he meant the nazis.

    Look, the guy is a fucking joke, and I will not cry when I read of his passing, but can we stop jumping on the outrage machine every time he says something unbelievably stupid? It’s playing right into the plan.

      No, because none of this is normal and it needs to be reported. In any other point in history, these things would be drawing outrage as well, it just wouldn’t be a constant barrage, because they’d have been booted from the office and never allowed to run again in the first place. They would never have an opportunity to have two outrageous events of this level, let alone the thousands that we’ve been dealing with since January 20 alone.

      Not talking about ever insane, horrific thing be says just helps to sane-wash this madness.

    Trump and Netanyahu don’t care about Jews. They care about Zionists. And the Nazis actually worked in close partnership with the Zionists. They were allies.

    It was the anti-Zionist Jews that Hitler went after.

    lmao I was wondering how long it would take. AIPAC fucked around and now they’re gonna find out. they think Trump is an ally, and all he wanted was to use them as an excuse to take out pro-Palestinian activists. once they’re gone, at some point he’s gonna turn his attention to Jews.
