It’s Official: With “Vermin,” Trump Is Now Using Straight-up Nazi Talk He’s telling us what he will do to his political enemies if he’s president again. Is anyone listening?

I feel pretty safe in saying that we can now stop giving him the benefit of that particular doubt. His use—twice; once on social media, and then repeated in a speech—of the word “vermin” to describe his political enemies cannot be an accident. That’s an unusual word choice. It’s not a smear that one just grabs out of the air. And it appears in history chiefly in one context, and one context only.

his lawyers are reading him Mein Kampf during breaks. It's woking

Pretty sure he just gets the TLDR version. His pea brain couldn't sit in one place long enough to listen to the entire book

They just let him watch Jojo Rabbit, he enjoys it because he relates to the main character. He's only seen the first 15mins because his attention span isn't that long.

IIRC he used to keep a copy on his nightstand. I don't know if this is true, but I remember reading it a long time ago.
