Scott Adams says:
I would be a top-ten assassination target in that scenario because once you define Trump as Hitler, you also give citizens moral permission to kill him. And obviously it would be okay to kill anyone who actively supports a genocidal dictator, including anyone who wrote about his persuasion skills in positive terms. (I’m called an “apologist” on Twitter, or sometimes just Joseph Goebbels).
It started. Not just rent a mobs but also politicians. The Mercury News (San Jose):
On radio talk shows and across social media, some called for Mayor Sam Liccardo’s resignation because of his comments suggesting that Trump was to blame for igniting violence, while police were criticized for failing to protect Trump supporters from angry protesters throwing punches, water bottles and traffic cones.
Things are not all bad. Some reporters have taken sides.
The Tweet I made was about a Trump supporter who was attacked on Thursday night outside a Trump rally in San Jose, California.
My Tweet was wrong and I take full responsibility for it. While it was not meant to offend, I now realize just how irritated some people were by my Tweet.
I am embarrassed to have put myself in this situation and to have let those down who I respect so much. I pledge to do a much better job in the future.
Taking sides will do that to ya buddy. On top of that it gives the game away. It is harder to influence opinion if people think you are not honest.
I expect all this this will add a few more supporters to the Trump train. Aren’t there any Democrats in a position to get the word out about how the violence in ’68 worked as a political tactic? Nixon in a Landslide. Well, a pretty big margin of electoral votes.

These nascent leftoid brownshirts wouldn’t recognize fascism if it bit them on the ass.
Fascist bites are highly infectious, the venom contains a potent blend of neurotoxins, systemic irritants and hallucinogens that cause a variety of effects, including mental incoherence, total lack of irony or self awareness, combined with extreme suggestibility and a strong tendency to form mobs and riot.
They can easily be programmed by their masters to froth and riot whenever, wherever needed. Their zomhie-like lack of higher brain functions makes it trivial to program them to throw an epileptic rage fit at the sounds of various trigger words. Words such as blm, LGBTQRSVPXYZLSMFT rights, campus rape, fascist, Nazi, Trump, logic, evidence and reason.
When everything is Hitler nothing is Hitler.
Many people voted for Nixon in 68 because they were both scared and appalled by the nightly spectacle of riots and mob violence. Nixon said he was the law and order candidate, and people believed him.
The liberal left had spent the last decades portraying Tricky Dick Nixon as a right wing extremist reactionary anti-communist madman, and people took them seriously, and then they decided Nixon was exactly what they wanted in a president.
The modern left: If they weren’t cutting their own throat they’d be cutting yours.
The news outlets have been reduced to issuing 1-minute hate broadcasts against Donald Trump.
In my mind, it makes them look cheap and desperate, which they are.
