The Second World War struggle against Nazi Germany is comparable to defeating former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election, according to MSNBC.
During a discussion on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” panelist Mike Barnicle directly compared US involvement in WWII and efforts to defeat Trump at the ballot box.
Reflecting on James Rudder of the Second Airborne Battalion’s actions at Pointe du Hoc during the Normandy invasion, Barnicle noted, “he went right at the Germans, right at the Germans. Fifty percent casualty rate. Why did they do it? They did it because we were Americans, and we were there to save Europe from Hitler.” Barnicle continued: “And now, all of these years later, we have to get together as a country and save the country from the threat that Donald Trump proposes.”
Comparing Trump to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler is a favorite rhetorical tactic of the Left. In January, it was reported that the Biden campaign’s efforts to portray Trump as a threat to ‘democracy’ were part of a “full Hitler” strategy designed to deceive the public.
