Joe is living in a gone era of before Trump to say this.

I had an argument a few weeks ago over Nazis. Not the ones that marched for Trump in Portland: I’m talking the original version from the 1930s. The argument—which I couldn’t believe I was having, but I guess is a thing now in certain circles—was whether all Nazis back then were evil.

I paid attention in history class so this was a pretty quick argument. As I told the guy, they weren’t all paramilitary like the ones that come to mind when we think of the word “Nazi”, which was usually the SA (brown shirts) or SS (black shirts). There were other members of the National Socialist German Workers Party, such as the bureaucrats and public officials.

Not all were fanatics. Not all virulently hated the Jewish people. Several even admitted Hitler was insane. However, they continued to support him and the regime for a variety of reasons: they hated communism more; they felt resentment over the abuse of the Versailles treaty; they were swept up in the nationalistic fervor, or they had fear of losing their status if they, in any way, resisted.

Sure, there were plenty of so-called “nice” ones who privately hated aspects of the regime and never personally hurt anyone. Yet my point to him was this: every single one of them was complicit. And no, there is no such thing as a “good Nazi”.....................................

1. Is He Trying To Lose

He can repeat this until he's blue in the face and retired but I don't see the point of his insistence on this and why he keeps talking about it.

Silence has come to mean assent and thus by their silence you shall know the republicans. Children in cages, dangerous climate change, guns, hungry, homeless people, drug costs, the incompetence/mendacity of his cabinet, corruption, his stealing from us every day and every other rule or strategy put in place to protect us and our quality of life. The damage that will be done by removing animals off the endangered species list in incalculable.

And yet they SAY NOTHING! Stop talking about this Joe because we're not listening.

4. He's not talking only about the past

He's talking about a possible Trump/Republican future.

5. What Do You Mean?

3. It's a dated refrain from a dated campaign. nt
