Somebody said something about a speck in your brothers eye while not seeing the log in your own eye.
That's not something that people generally advertise. You know some; you just don't realize it.
if you stand by it and intended it leave it upI would offer two options. The first is not the one I accept, the dog whistle. The second is that the Trump campaign believes no press is bad press and this allows for the ever popular "the mean old lefties are picking on me".
As to @CO. Hoosier point that a German says Reich doesn't have the same meaning, that is possible. But I am not sure I have heard any German politician since 1945 use that term, which should be indicative of something. In addition, in late '22 there were 25 people arrested in a right-wing coup plot, they called themselves Reich citizens. At least to some in the German neo-nazi movement, the term has meaning.

Great post.100%. Reich ain't neutral--only one country has ever referred itself as the "Reich" the Bizmark pre world war I (and through WWI). An overtly aggressive country was the root cause of WWI. The second of course needs no explainer--we know exactly what Reich means: 1933-1945 Germany.
If you are using that word at anytime in the 20th and 21st century, it means one thing. Why would an american use the term Reich--unless it was intentional. You wouldn't. The actual sentence said "“the creation of a unified Reich”. They doubled down the usage 3 times and actually stated “German industrial strength significantly increased after 1871, driven by the creation of a unified Reich.” That sentence of course is extremely coy and does not provide an end date--and for good reason inasmuch as Bizmark Reich failed miserably, and the Weimer republic was dog doo doo, with inflation running at over a million percent. There was no industry. No food either. Enter Hitler and his commerical works projects....
As for Trump's comments about "poisioning the blood of our country" (disucssing immigration), and referring to immigrants as vermin --these are two unmistakeable terms and phrases that you won't find anywhere other than Mein Kumph and Joseph Goebbels diary. Richard Evans and Ian Kershaw both have written magnificent books on this.
There is NO other reason to say these things unless you are making it known who you really are, then playing dumb about it....how many times would direct copying of nazi language must there before people realize this is a problem. These words and phrases are a clarion call (see what I did there @BradStevens) to incite.
The whataboutism in this thread is shocking.
or not having open borders. or not defunding police and backing soros das. or not forgiving student loans that people contracted to pay back. or not giving away so much free shit it causes the price of everythign to skyrocket. or not attacking energy to the point that gas skyrockets. or not playing the race card at every opportunity. or not appointing people who can't define a woman. or not putting identity over merit. that type of stuff too.
How many gaffes must there be before negligence becomes intentional?
And the third, is the one the Trump campaign put out: a staffer retweeted/posted it and didn't even see the word "reich." Go look at the video. CNN had to edit it, slow it down, and zoom in on the word, that was faded and in the background. Perfectly reasonable explanation, isn't it?I would offer two options. The first is not the one I accept, the dog whistle. The second is that the Trump campaign believes no press is bad press and this allows for the ever popular "the mean old lefties are picking on me".

I have never seen the word Nazi as synonymous with Reich. I think have more closely associated Reich with Germany.
His staff didn't create the video. That background language was part of, or generated by, some video creator app.

Got it--you are perfectly fine with a presidential candidate that quoting Mein Kumph and Joseph Goebbels almost to a T and then endorsing a post glorifying and "Creating a unified Reich"....I have yet to read from you anything resembling a "yeah, these comments are pretty shitty to make and endorse'. We did, of course, get the "but, look at Biden"....
can you imagine what some of his junior staff must be like tho 😅 😅 😅 😅 that would make for a great reality showHis staff didn't create the video. That background language was part of, or generated by, some video creator app.
Trump campaign deletes video mentioning 'unified Reich'
Campaign says video was posted to Trump's Truth Social account by a "junior" staff member, not by the ex-president.
You think that app is some Nazi plant?
"the Reich" is a place and a concept--a special characterization of what Germany was and could be. "Nazi's" and "Germans" are people---they of course couldn't be used interchangeabley with "the Reich".
Just trying to equal out all the ridiculous threads when Biden makes a gaffe and all the Trumpers go insane here. But not a word when Trump and Co make Nazi references. Good job, COH!

See, that's fair.

Yep. Have owned several Volkswagens and never gave Hitler a thought about any of them.

This wasn't a word selected by Trump, or even by his staffer:

Re the people who are looking with favor upon Hitler, I've never met them and I read a lot but haven't seen much of that (since Marge Schott?). Any polling data out there about this?
That would be almost 20 million people. I find that hard to believe.
There are more than enough people here who carry water for Trump and will call anyone who sees this as a red flag delusional and that they have TDS. Actually any criticism of Trump is met with this response.
I find it likely too high as well, but 10 mil wouldn't surprise me. Likely 10 mil ultra leftists. Usually always some kind of equilibrium on average.

The VW Beetle has the Nazis to thank for its existence. Adolf Hitler laid the cornerstone of the Volkswagen factory in Wolfsburg 80 years ago. Here, a critical retrospective of a German success story.
