BTW, Associating Trump with Spencer is like associating vegetarians, tea totallers or dog lovers with Hitler.

Say what you mean and mean what you say. Although, I think most understood what you were implying. You have to remember, finnbow thinks Trump is another Hitler, I'm a big time Trump supporter, and Putin isn't a good strategist and tactitian.

My posts are not college theses. They are forum posts. It's water cooler conversation, peppered with links. I clarified when it was apparent I caused confusion.

That's how conversations work.

Nope. I'd rather you not make this thread about me, though. I'm not paying you rent, no matter how hard you try.

There's no question that Trump admires authoritarians and despots of all stripes, from Hitler to Kim to Xi to Putin and that his beliefs, tactics and ideology greatly resemble the NSDAP in the early 1930's.

As for you being a Trump supporter, I'd call you more of a contrarian. As for Putin as strategist and tactician, I really haven't spoken to that. He is, however, a malign force in this world and is determined to undermine democracy and the West.

Actually you have, my clearly stated point about Putin being how good he is as a strategist and tactition. Nothing contrarian about this given his results so far. 1)Tzar of all the Russia's. 2) Crimea. 3... He's on a roll.
