As someone that has spent hundreds of hours studying history, the parallels between DJT and Hitler are pretty apparent.
Persecution of an outgroup (Jews and Mexicans)
Failed political coup (Beer hall putsch and Jan 6th)
Both used populism and economic crises to push their agenda
Demonization of mainstream media and consolidation of their own media networks (Radio stations and Truth Social / Twitter)
Raging narcissism and ego
The main difference is that Germany was in a much worse economic situation than America is now.
They're trying really hard to fix that last one.
