Really? The situations are the same? Germany was defeated and the citizens felt very insecure about their place in the world. The news was nothing like it is now. Hitler was able to accomplish the biggest mass murder in history because, not alone, but those two things.
Do you really believe Trump could pull of a Hitler?
Hitler told the people they were exceptional and played on their feelings of disenfranchisement. Trump does this as well.
Security rules at Trump rallies, his security controls what is said, "We love Trump" is allowed. if you say anything derogatory, you are removed from the premises. Hitler also censured speech.
He is revoking press credentials, anyone writing anything bad about Trump is denied access to his campaign. People should be very worried about his denial of free speech, especially when you censor the press. The Founders realized how important a free press is to a free society.
People sitting back and ignoring all his bigoted remarks, stating that they don't agree with them, but they like other things about Trump. People had the same attitude about Hitler which allowed for his policies.
Alienating certain undesirable groups of people for the promise of safety. Wanting to use violence as a means to deal with people with which you don't agree.
Fascist promise to deliver the people from politics, without any clear cut plan, but always promising action and results.
ROBERT PAXTON: Well, I think that Donald Trump shows a rather alarming willingness to use fascist themes and fascist styles, which—and the response this gets, the positive response, is alarming.
ROBERT PAXTON: Well, fascism is a mass nationalist movement intended to restore a country that’s been damaged or is in decline, by expansion, by violent attacks on enemies, internal as well as external enemies, and measures of authority, the replacement of democracy by an authoritarian dictatorship.

This comparison isn't saying that Trump will end up executing millions of people, it is only showing the ways Hitler controlled the people, the press and the lead up to his dictatorship. Trump has used some of these in his rise to the nomination.
