4. K&R

Prager “U” is the modern version of Hitler Youth.

It’s radicalizing young people.

5. Monstrous killer regime redux, unbelievable to this WWII Vet child.

"Schichlegruber Doing the Lambeth Walk & the Gestapo Hepcats" (1941). British satire of Nazi forces set to music of the popular 'Lambeth Walk'. Shown to resistance audiences in Europe during the war.

The comic film short upset Nazi Propaganda Minister Jos. Goebbels so much that after first seeing it he ran from the room screaming!


---------------

K & R Thanks for posting this historical Nazi film.

6. Trump has studied Hitler well; he kept a series of Hitlers speeches by his bedside for many years

7. I have always wondered why anyone took him seriously with that ridiculous mustache.

But then, I have always wondered how anyone took Trump seriously with that ridiculous hair.

I guess hate is blind.

8. Maybe it's that little theatrical touch that loosens people from their reality

Cons always have a bag of tricks
