DEMS/DONALD JR: “President Donald Trump’s eldest son said the platform of the Democratic Party is similar to that of the Nazi Party in Germany during the early 1930s and that history classes are biased against conservatives. In a video posted Thursday [8-2-18] by the pro-Trump One America News Network, Jack Posobiec — a prominent right-wing voice online who supported the Pizzagate hoax — spoke with Donald Trump Jr., who compared the present-day Democratic Party to Nazis and disparaged history taught by academics…He warned people against saying something ‘because someone told you that in a history class’ because academia had been influenced by the left…At that point, the President’s son contrasted his claims about Nazis and the Democratic Party with dreadlocked protesters making accusations of fascism in the US, claiming those protesters do not know what they are ‘running around and spewing.’ Trump Jr.’s comment was a false equivalency. The Nazi Party’s violent promotion of racism and anti-Semitism is not comparable with the modern Democratic Party of the United States.”
