Not only does the radical left of the modern Democratic Party want to destroy America and the U.S. Constitution, but they also want to destroy history.
They throw around words like “fascism” and “oligarchy” like candy to children during a parade, expecting it will lead them to victory in an electoral sweep of the next election, whenever it may be.
They only make themselves look more clownish with every passing day.
Former SNL writer and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star Larry David penned an op-ed for The New York Times which made light of HBO host Bill Maher going to dinner with President Donald Trump at Mar-A-Lago. He portrayed Trump as if he were Hitler, who had invited Maher to dinner to charm him even though he was a bloodthirsty monster.
David’s piece comes across as cringeworthy at best and childish at worst. It is hardly worth the read except as a very sad commentary on the inability of the left to talk about anything true or important anymore.
In their efforts to demonize Trump, radical Democrats wind up trivializing the murderous nature of Hitler and making a mockery of his deadly legacy.
Ask any liberal to prove how many millions of innocent people Trump murdered in his first term or since Jan. 20, 2025, before continuing any discussion with them on the matter. Any mature Democrat making such an outrageous comparison should hang their head in shame.
For generations of Americans who did not learn about the horrors of World War II directly from their parents and grandparents, modern Democrats clumsily bring Hitler down to the same buffoonish level as Mel Brooks did in his comedic masterpiece, “The Producers.”
Fading theatre producer Max Bialystock concocts a scheme to bilk money out of unsuspecting rich widows to fund a musical he is sure will fail so he won’t have to fulfill his promises of exorbitant profit distributions to them and be able to keep all of their money after one dreadful performance.
Except, of course, the musical becomes a hit. Bialystock and his unsuspecting accountant accomplice, Leo Bloom, wind up going to jail on fraud and embezzlement charges.
The musical was called “Springtime for Hitler.” It was a farcical mixture of horrible music, terrible acting and awful staging. The audiences of the play within the film loved it — as a comedy and a dark satire, but not as a musical.
“Springtime for Hitler” portrayed Hitler as an effeminate, LSD-hallucinated beatnik that was so far out of the realm of possibility it had no basis for even the tiniest smidgen of belief, even as comedy.
Any attempt to compare Trump and Hitler falls apart right at the beginning for the same reason. It simply is not believable on the face of it.
There has not been a U.S. president more supportive of Jews and Israel in modern history than Trump. People who are supposed to be “just like Hitler!” do not support the right of Jews to live in a safe, independent state. Jew haters do not support Jewish students who want to go to class unimpeded by angry pro-Palestinian mobs chanting, “Death to All Jews!” Antisemites do not support the relocation of the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
All Jewish voters had to do was watch the constant appeasement of enemies of Israel by the Biden and Obama administrations and compare it to the actions of Trump to see who really had their best interests in mind.
The left-wing attempt to equate Trump with Hitler completely undermines the horrific nature of what Hitler did during World War II to Jews in Europe.
The only people in human history who can and should ever be compared to Hitler are the other mad, megalomaniacal mass murderers Josef Stalin, Mao Tse-Tung, Idi Amin, Pol Pot and any number of demented and sadistic kings from the Roman Empire and the Babylonian and Assyrian empires before them.
Disagreeing with politicians in a spirit of civil discourse is one thing. Making baseless assertions and comparisons to a monster like Hitler without fact is embarrassing to watch and, quite frankly, should be disturbing to every older Democrat left standing.
Perhaps another clever comic genius of the same caliber as Mel Brooks (still living) will look at the 21st-century Democratic Party and write a sardonic, dark comedy about their complete and utter disconnection with reality, the U.S. Constitution and the essence of what it means to be an American citizen in fact and spirit.
Call it “Springtime for Bernie, AOC and Jasmine Crockett.” It is sure to be a hit.
