You're 100% right, and nobody in official Washington will care one whit.

He needs to be fired and then left a beggar. In all the ways he isn't already.

No one should tolerate a US spokesperson, of any description, saying that. Ever.

If he claims ignorance or attempts to "clarify" his remarks, he'll only make things worse.

He referred to gas chambers as "Holocaust Centers" as he attempted to weasel out of it.

"I think when you come to sarin gas, he (hitler) was not using the gas on his own people the same way that Assad is doing."

Lots of ways to interpret that and none of them are good.

When did he have it in the first place?

We've gotten a constant avalanche of bulls**t since the inauguration.
It's not like Spicer just jumped the shark by invoking Hitler.

And that would also require Congress and the Senate to have integrity - which they don't. But if they did we could fire Trump.

I've heard from multiple reporters that he had a decent amount of good will and decent relations before all of this and now this is his life.

He must have an ulcer the size of a baseball.
