Summary
The Trump Store released $50 “Trump 2028” hats Thursday, sparking backlash online as Trump has repeatedly hinted at running for a third term.
“I have had more people ask me to have a third term,” Trump said on March 31, claiming the 2020 election was “totally rigged.”
Steve Bannon said he’s exploring “five or six different alternatives” to enable a third run.
Critics on social media called it “insane” and a sign of “fascist” ambitions. Though barred by the 22nd Amendment, Trump could run again if it were overturned by Congress and the states. However, it would require a two-thirds vote of Congress and three-fourths vote of the states.
Hitler was elected to office. Being elected doesn’t mean one doesn’t have fascist ambitions.
Incorrect. Hitler never won the elections he ran in. Instead, President Hindenburg appointed him after facing pressure from various directions.
You are correct, his party had won elections.
The point being that elections does not mean one is not a wannabe dictator. Perhaps a better example would be Orbán.
Not everyone is Hitler.
No one disagrees with that. But there are fascists in charge of the USA right now, and they’re apparently modelling much of what they do after Mussolini and Hitler.
The guy using the same rhetoric as Hitler in his campaigns wishes he was, though…
Not all fascists are Hitler.
