Trump Rally At Madison Square Garden Speaker Lineup Revealed
Trump & the Republican Party are using a method to gain control of the United States of America in a way similar to Hitler's method to gain control of Germany
Hitler laid a carefully planned trap to take control of Germany.
Trump suffering from obvious signs of dementia has a malignant narcissist helter-skelter plan to take control of the United States:

Donald Trump is so stupid he announced his own version of the “Night of the Long Knives” BEFORE the election!!!
The Night of the Long Knives (German: Nacht der langen Messerⓘ), also called the Röhm purge or Operation Hummingbird (German: Unternehmen Kolibri), was a purge that took place in Nazi Germany from 30 June to 2 July 1934. Chancellor Adolf Hitler, urged on by Hermann Göring and Heinrich Himmler, ordered a series of political extrajudicial executions intended to consolidate his power
“In a recent post on his Truth Social platform, Donald Trump issued an ominous message to his political opponents, warning that if he wins the 2024 election, he intends to pursue mass arrests and severe legal action against anyone he believes is involved in “cheating” or “skullduggery” in U.S. elections. This list extends beyond traditional candidates to include lawyers, political donors, election officials, and “illegal voters."
Trump wrote:
CEASE & DESIST: I, together with many Attorneys and Legal Scholars, am watching the Sanctity of the 2024 Presidential Election very closely because I know, better than most, the rampant Cheating and Skullduggery that has taken place by the Democrats in the 2020 Presidential Election. It was a Disgrace to our Nation! Therefore, the 2024 Election, where Votes have just started being cast, will be under the closest professional scrutiny and, WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again. We cannot let our Country further devolve into a Third World Nation, AND WE WON'T! Please beware that this legal exposure extends to Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials. Those involved in unscrupulous behavior will be sought out, caught, and prosecuted at levels, unfortunately, never seen before in our Country.
He accuses Democrats and their allies of “rampant cheating” in the 2020 election, calling it a “Disgraceto our Nation.” He claims the alleged cheating left the country weakened and likened the current state of the nation to a “Third World” status, a theme he has frequently returned to in his campaign speeches. On Thursday, Trump called the United States a "garbage can of the world."
The list of those who could face legal action under Trump’s proposed post-election crackdown includes anyone he deems involved in “unscrupulous behavior” and “corrupt” activity, hinting at a broad interpretation of election-related offenses. As MeidasTouch editor-in-chief Ron Filipkowski states, "If you use his 2020 standard, that would mean people like Ruby Freeman, Shaye Moss, Marc Elias, Zuckerberg, and hundred of others would be jailed.”

Trump Threatens Mass Arrests of Political Opponents if He Wins in 2024
In a Truth Social post, Trump warns of unprecedented prosecutions of lawyers, donors, and officials supporting Democrats in a promise to pursue political opponents.
“For decades, reporters have been taught not to make Hitler analogies in stories about American politics. Adolf Hitler was so uniquely evil that any comparison of an American politician with the Nazi leader was considered unfair and out of bounds.
And then came Donald Trump.
Trump is the first modern American political figure to force journalists to reassess whether Hitler references meet their editorial standards.
In my columns and other articles for The Intercept, I have drawn attention to the increasingly obvious parallels between Hitler and Trump and between the Nazi movement and the MAGA cult. Yet most mainstream journalists have stubbornly stuck to the de facto ban on Hitler analogies and have refused to compare the two. That reluctance to point out the truth about Trump has been part of a larger pattern in the media of the so-called sane-washing of Trump, in which his demagoguery, wild conspiracy theories, and racist proposals are given credence and serious treatment by the political press corps.

But in explosive new statements, Trump’s own former White House chief of staff has made it virtually impossible for the press to justify a continued ban on Trump/Hitler references. John Kelly, a retired Marine general and Trump’s longest serving chief of staff, told the New York Times and The Atlantic in interviews published this week that when he was president, Trump made it clear that he admired Hitler and yearned for his authoritarian power.
Kelly said that Trump repeatedly said in private that Hitler “did some good things,” and that Trump said he wanted the kind of “German generals” who served under Hitler and committed unspeakable war crimes in World War II.
Kelly said he is convinced that Trump is a fascist.
In his interview with the New York Times, Kelly pointed out the definition of fascist, and said that it fits Trump: “Well, looking at the definition of fascism: It’s a far-right authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy … he certainly falls into the general definition of fascist, for sure.”
Meanwhile, Kelly told The Atlantic that Trump wanted American generals to act like Hitler’s Nazi generals. Kelly recalled asking Trump, “‘Surely you can’t mean Hitler’s generals?’ And he said, ‘Yeah, yeah, Hitler’s generals.’””

Trump & the Republican Party are using a method to gain control of the United States of America in a way similar to Hitler's method to gain control of Germany:
"Adolf Hitler never won a majority in a free and open national election. He never received more than 37% of the vote in a free and open national election, but he argued that 37% represented 75% of 51%, and demanded political power. It was the political calculus by which the Nazi leader disabled, then dismantled, the Weimar Republic. Hitler exploited his 37% to gridlock legislative processes, to cudgel or crush the political opposition, and ultimately to undermine the country’s democratic structures. When Hitler had vowed in court, in September 1930, to destroy democracy through the democratic process, a judge asked, “So, only through constitutional means?” Hitler replied crisply, “Jawohl.” (Yes definitely)
Hitler exercised his constitutional right to free speech and freedom of assembly to hold rallies across the country and spew invective in all directions—against Bolsheviks, social democrats, immigrants, Jews, even fellow rightwing nationalists. He chided the ruling elites. If God had intended aristocrats to run the country, Hitler said at one rally in fall 1932, “we’d all have been born with monocles.” He vowed to make Germany great again. He promised a Third Reich bigger and better than the previous two…
In helping explain the Weimar Republic’s tilt into fascism, I used to cite an observation by Hans Frank, Hitler’s private attorney, who helped engineer the strategy to disable democratic processes through constitutional means. Frank became complicit in Germany’s wartime atrocities, including the murder of millions of Jews, for which he was hanged.
“The Führer was a man who was possible in Germany only at that very moment,” Frank observed while awaiting trial in Nuremberg after the war. Had Hitler come a decade later “when the republic was firmly established,” Frank said, it would have been impossible for him to have seized power. Had he come a decade earlier, the German people would have returned to the Kaiser. As it was, Frank said, Hitler came “at exactly this terrible transitory period” when the monarchy was gone and the thirteen-year-old republic was not yet secure.
I invoked the Frank temporal formula to contrast the fragility and ultimate failure of the thirteen-year-old Weimar Republic with the two centuries that Americans—more than ten generations—had had to forge the democratic values and processes that elevated the United States to a shining example for the world. Thirty years on, that contrast and claim seem frighteningly naïve.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding, in July 2026, our republic appears to be plagued by the myriad ills that doomed Weimar—political fragmentation, social polarization, hate-filled demagoguery, a legislature gridlocked by partisan posturing, and structural anomalies in voting processes. The electoral college makes it possible, though highly improbable, that a political leader could come to power with just 37% of the popular vote, unless, of course, a third candidate could siphon significant numbers of voters from the two leading candidates.
It has been said that the Weimar Republic died twice. It was murdered and it committed suicide. There is little mystery to the murder. Hitler vowed to destroy democracy through the democratic process—and he did. An act of state suicide is less easily explained, especially when it involves a democratic republic replete with constitutional protections like freedom of expression, due process, and public referendum. As the November presidential election approaches, it is perhaps worthwhile to reflect on the lessons of Weimar and the potential consequences of electing a calculating and calibrating demagogue who promises to make the country great again."
