I guess it’s time to put away the dog whistle.

But not the lies.   Imagine saying white ppl can't get vaccinated.    Then imagine choosing to log into this website, drop really dated insults that are so bad they're self burns, and also defending a lie that white people can't get vaxxed.

 I don't have a problem prioritizing based on risk assessment but if it was based solely on race that would be wrong.  I don't think that happened at least for the most part.  

That seems to be what the former guy is lying about though

Its just a healthy reminder that COVID things that come out of Trump's blowhole are not to be trusted.

Nothing that comes out of his mouth should be trusted and we should keep saying it.  Even on rare occaions when he tells the truth, it is for self serving reasons.  Every con artist has to to tell the truth once in a while.  It's part of the con.  He is the biggest con man in US history and the number of perople who have fallen for his act is stunning.  His supporters and apologists should be reminded of that at every opportunity.

Ponzi is a good one...The thing about Trump is that he's not even clever or enticing.  He is so obviously full of ****, but so many still fall for it and believe everything he says.  It is perplexing.  

His power is in mobilizing people with pre-existing grievances, and being charming enough to them to hold them in thrall.

Whether not for nothing or a propos of nothing, that was Hitler’s power, too.

I still think he's too intellectually dumb to be Hitler and the people he hires to do his dirty work are even dumber.  I also don't know if he is evil enough.  There is so much evidence of all kinds of crimes he has committed throughout his life, but there have been no rumors of him deliberately having people murdered.  If there was even a hint of that, it would be all over the place.   Would he care if people got killed for his benefit?  Probably not.  But there is no evidence that he has ever called for that in his life.

Well, that sure was a lot more than I was talking about! 😅

I wasn’t making a one-on-one comprehensive comparison between the two. Referring only to their shared ability to use their personal charisma to motivate people already primed to respond.

OK, In the past you have suggested that he could become like Hitler with smart perople doing his dirty work.  You may have just been saying it hypothetically.  His approach does give us lessons in how it COULD happen here.
