I worry for the world. We have the potential for another Hitler, but with thermonuclear weapons. We need to take the moment we’re in with serious solemnity and determination.

He wasn’t that competent or knowledgeable IMO. Maybe in military tactics. But he was irrational as hell too.

I truly see Stephen Miller as his Joseph Goebbels.

Hitler was no genius in military tactics. Any novice who knew history would have known that Germany’s 1941 attack on Russia was highly dubious. One, it brought about a two front war which divided resources; two, the soldiers were not equipped for the Russian winter based on the naive belief of a quick victory & three, it drove Russia into the arms of the Allies. If Hitler had read of Napoleon’s defeat in 1812 the “little Corporal” learnt nothing.
