You know who else was nowhere near as bad as Hitler in WWII? Hitler before WWII. The whole point of learning from history is recognizing early signs, so you can interrupt a plot before it gets to the Holocaust level. Trump is already sending people to concentration camps with no due process. He's already attacking political dissenters, and plotting an unconstitutional 3rd term.
If you wait for the Night of Long Knives, you ensure that it'll be too late to actually do anything about it. Those of us who have watched WWII documentaries can see the parallels clear as crystal.
Dictators often do exactly what they say they will do.
Every dictator in history has executed their political rivals? Are you sure about that? I can provide many examples to the contrary if you promise not to move the goalposts.
This remains to be seen. He had his people attack Congress and threaten to lynch the VP last time he lost.
Not all dictators will mirror Hitler on a 1:1 scale.
I'd rather nip it in the bud before we get to that point, thanks.
