because during the '40s African-Americans were frequently mistreated, abused, and sometimes murdered on account of their race, and because many Japanese-Americans were confined in internment camps (something that will be a stain on FDR's legacy forever), the US shouldn't have even criticized Hitler for the Holocaust, let alone waged war against him. What Kim has been doing in NK rivals what Hitler did. But Trump shouldn't criticize him because the US has done some bad things?
