> You mentioned Russia, the wall, NBC and typed a lot but didn't really answer the question.

Fair enough, let me be direct: I think the question is stupid and I'm not going to answer it. Trump has spent 4 years in office and run multiple election campaigns that have featured potentially hundreds of hours of coverage of Trump, his policies and opportunities to evaluate them.

With that in the background, old mate wants to discuss a tweet and 40 second clip, probably bought into the conversation by institutions that specialises in lying about what Trump says and taking clips out of context given that NBC News is involved.

And like I said, back in the 2010s fair enough it is a topic to discuss because who knows? Maybe he is Hitler. But it is now 2024, there isn't anything there and the people bringing it up are looking increasingly isolated and unhinged by virtue of crying wolf. Trump says mean things about immigrants. Everyone knows. He doesn't represent a return of the Nazi party, even if a lot of people don't like him or think he is a bad candidate.

So you can't answer it.

Nope, he said it 4 times in 2023 alone and many many times since. In an interview with a right leaning website, in a rally in New Hampshire, and quite literally in the Truth Social post linked above, straight from Trump himself. No pesky journalists or reporters to misquote.

So hopefully we can agree he has said it, not out of context, multiple times.

What did Hitler say?

"All great cultures of the past perished only because the originally creative race died out from blood poisoning"

"Whenever Aryans have mingled their blood with that of an inferior race, the result has been the downfall of the people who were the standard-bearers of a higher culture,"

Going back to Trump's quote, what type of blood do you think he was referring to?

Do you think he meant the immigrants were going to literally inject poison into Americans as some kind of terrorist attack?
