Full quote though it's not really any better:

“I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.

“Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.

“People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.

“No, they didn’t do that, they’d slap us,” Trump said the hostages told him about Hamas, while sitting next to the man who is currently leading Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “Their hatred is unbelievable.”

I always knew about the gaschambers, but never really thought about how it was done, until I saw this video recently

It made me realize just how fucked up these people where.

Visit a concentration camp someday if you get the opportunity

I visited auschwitz when I was 15 on a achool trip, the entire place felt very dark. But I was too young (and stupid) to really understand the horrors that happened at that place.

The first time I got chills from an animated YouTube video. Crazy to think that people who are OK with this still exist and walk among us.

Damn that fucked up. The Jewish MAGA freaks will continue to gulp down the Orange Kool-Aid mixed with Russian vodka.

Now his marriage history makes more sense

I think we should all show him how much we "love" him then. See how he likes it.

Same as the love Israelis are showing Palestinians in Gaza.

Look, the guy is a fucking joke, and I will not cry when I read of his passing, but can we stop jumping on the outrage machine every time he says something unbelievably stupid? It's playing right into the plan.

No, because none of this is normal and it needs to be reported. In any other point in history, these things would be drawing outrage as well, it just wouldn't be a constant barrage, because they'd have been booted from the office and never allowed to run again in the first place. They would never have an opportunity to have two outrageous events of this level, let alone the thousands that we've been dealing with since January 20 alone.

Not talking about ever insane, horrific thing be says just helps to sane-wash this madness.
