          Kinda crazy that Hitler was put in jail for his coup attempt, while Trump evaded any and all consequences from his. Not that it stopped Hitler from rising to power…

          But, while not directly comparable, it’s in a way ironic that Hitler seemingly faced harsher consequences than Trump, even though Hitler’s time in prison wasn’t exactly tough for him.

            Hitler also did not win a popular election to get elected, nor did the Nazi party win a majority of seats in Parliament. The liberals in power could have formed a coalition government with the communists but refused

      Letting the morons being ridiculous, accomplish nothing and then slowly throwing all of them to jail, not to create martyrs, was actually the best move.
