On TV, it’s bringing out the worst in them, and I’m sure we still haven’t seen how bad that is. How low can they go? On THE VIEW, Joy Behar took the “Trump is Hitler” narrative even farther than ever, calling him a fascist pig.
“I don’t even know what to say any more,” she said. “If people still follow this fascist pig, then I don’t know what else to say. I really don’t. (Helpful hint: when you don’t know what to say, it’s best to say nothing.)
“It’s like, how many times we have to hear him say that referring to all immigrants as animals and Hitler cleansing Germany of all those parasites, referring to immigrants, and he calls Jews lice and this guy Trump calls people vermin,” she said in a sentence that makes no sense. (Yes, that is Joy verbatim.) “It’s the same language that Hitler used.”
Trump uses language that blunt to describe illegal immigrant violent criminals who rape and kill, such as members of Venezuelan gangs. (He called them “animals” in his speech at Madison Square Garden last night, and I hope actual animals don’t feel too insulted by that.) To say this language likens him in any way to Hitler is trivializing what Hitler said about Jews --- and what he did to them.
Behar and her colleagues might want to listen to this post on X from 94-year-old Auschwitz survivor Jerry Wartski, whose family was murdered by Hitler’s troops when they invaded Poland. “I know more about Hitler than Kamala will ever know in a thousand lifetimes. For her to accuse President Trump of being like Hitler is the worst thing I’ve ever heard in my 75 years of living in the United States.”
He said Kamala “owes my parents and everyone else who was murdered by Hitler an apology for repeating this lie.”

It’s a devastating reminder that when you call your opponent “Hitler” for cheap political gain, you not only slander your opponent, you trivialize the real horror and suffering of the worst crime of the 20th century and insult and demean its victims.
Behar wasn’t the only one on THE VIEW to spew this ignorance. Co-host Sunny Hostin praised her, saying, “I think you’ve really hit the note.” Both should apologize to Jerry Wartski and his ancestors who were murdered by Adolf Hitler.
Dave Rubin of THE RUBIN REPORT had a good comment: “You’re all idiots and liars. And you know it. That’s you, literally. Ladies of THE VIEW, you have the job you have because a corporation pays you to sit there and lie so that the Democrats can retain power. It’s as simple as that.”

At Trump’s rally Sunday, none other than Hulk Hogan --- who better for Madison Square Garden? ---came out in his wrestling attire and, in six minutes, took apart the “Trump as dictator” garbage: “I don’t see no stinkin’ Nazis in here! I don’t see no domestic terrorists in here! The only thing I see in here are a bunch of hard-working men and women that are real Americans, brother.”
You have to see this…
Recall that we noted last week that the Democrats have likened the Republican nominee to “Hitler” in every election since 1944 (well, except for Eisenhower, but only because he actually defeated Hitler. Tough break for them.) Talk about crying wolf! Today, Stephen Soukup at AMERICAN GREATNESS has a terrific essay on why the Democrats’ tired “Nazi” narrative is losing steam. In Soukup’s words, “No one pays the slightest bit of attention to Democrats when they prattle on about Republicans being fascists because they have done so for almost as long as anyone can remember.”
This really kicked into high gear when Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater ran for President in 1964. Soukup has a list of quotes about Goldwater at the time; they’re just as exaggerated as the claims being made about Trump today. (Goldwater lost in a landslide. That, however, was back in the days of liberal media gatekeepers and long before such claims got REALLY OLD and conservatives got sick of being beaten over the head with them. We’ve since learned the power of mockery and are fighting back against the lies.)
In one brilliant passage, Soukup sizes up why the control of language translates into the control of humanity, because the very concept of morality underlying the words we say has been lost:
“...we have—very largely, if not entirely—lost our comprehension, both theoretical and practical, of morality.
“As a result, moral pronouncements become mere expressions of feelings and sensations, which are elevated above objective reality and traditional conceptions of right and wrong, good and evil, etc. In short, words like ‘fascist’ and ‘Nazi’ come to mean nothing more than ‘I don’t like this.’ The Democrats don’t like Trump, but they lack the moral language to explain why. In turn, they resort simply to calling him the names they associate with other things they believe they don’t like. Trump, therefore, is a Nazi, Hitler-esque—just as Mitt Romney was, just as George W. Bush, just as Reagan and Goldwater were, just as all Republicans are. The left doesn’t consider the implications or the meaning of the comparisons they use, largely because they don’t understand them. They know only that they are comparing two things that they don’t like.”
It’s Joy Behar, EXPLAINED! I hope you’ll read the whole thing…

Gen. John Kelly, former chief of staff to President Trump has been quoted by THE NEWS YORK TIMES as saying Trump privately praised Hitler on several occasions and met his definition of a fascist. Kamala Harris has made much of this in the scripted comments she makes everywhere she goes. But Nick Ayers, then-Vice President Mike Pence’s chief of staff, said this on X:
“I’ve avoided commenting on intra-staff leaks or rumors or even lies as it relates to my time at the White House, but General Kelly’s comments regarding President Trump are too egregious to ignore. I was with each of them more than most, and his commentary is *patently false.*”
This refutation includes other stories told by Gen. Kelly as well, such as the one that Trump didn’t want to be seen with veterans who had lost limbs and had called soldiers who had been injured or killed in battle “suckers and losers.” These are stories that Democrats are still telling constantly on the campaign trail.
When THE ATLANTIC magazine (the propaganda arm of the Atlantic Council) published the “suckers and losers” comment, even huge anti-Trumper John Bolton responded that Trump had not said that.
As reported in THE NATIONAL PULSE, when THE ATLANTIC published a similar piece this week claiming that Trump had denigrated murdered American soldier Vanessa Guillen, her family roundly rejected the magazine’s claims, with her sister no doubt rankling them by saying she had already voted for Trump.
But as the hysterical “Trump is Hitler” narrative wears thin, the Democrats are trying even harder to thwart election integrity measures, suing states and towns across the country. To cite just one example, after the Commonwealth of Virginia removed about 1,600 registered voters who had IDENTIFIED THEMSELVES as non-citizens from its voter rolls, U.S. Judge Patricia Giles, just this Friday, ruled that those names must be PUT BACK. I am not kidding.
But logically, it seems likely this will backfire as well. According to a new Gallup poll, a whopping 80 percent of Americans support BOTH a border wall AND voter ID, and 83 percent say that proof of citizenship should be required for voting for the first time. But the messaging from the Democrat Party is that these policies are racist. How does this go over when a vast majority of Americans are finding themselves agreeing with Trump? Here’s Jonathan Turley’s column...
As Nick Arama at REDSTATE writes of Trump, “Not only is he doing well in the polls, but he’s been doing events that have blown up the only desperate argument they seem to have left --- the “Hitler gambit.”
Working at McDonald’s and chatting with everyday Americans. Shooting the breeze for three solid unedited hours with Joe Rogan. He’s funny, personable, intelligent, widely knowledgeable, and, yes, stable and even-tempered. The dictator stuff falls away as just another political lie.
It was reportedly son Barron who encouraged Trump to get out and do these kinds of events and podcasts, to let people see who he really is, especially young people who are most prone to leftist brainwashing. How often do you get that in politics?
None of this will matter, though, if we don’t get out and vote. Have the satisfaction of “banking” your vote, in person. It’s up to all of us to make this election too big to rig.
RELATED COMMENT from Huckabee writer/researcher Laura Ainsworth:
While in Charlotte, North Carolina this weekend for a music event, my co-writer/spouse Pat Reeder and I took a drive through a beautiful historic district called Elizabeth. Impressive, immaculately restored homes from the early 20th century line the streets; many of these go for well over $1 million.
We could see that in this prestigious neighborhood, the ONLY political signs were for Harris-Walz and the down-ballot Democrats. NOT ONE Trump sign in the entire neighborhood. What are the odds? If you were to ask these well-educated, prosperous people what they thought of Trump, I’d be willing to bet they’d say he was a racist and a threat to democracy. They might even use the word “Hitler.”
On the other hand, while there were quite a few Harris signs, most of the homes did not have yard signs at all. I had to wonder, had these people been intimidated by what’s being said about Trump to not publicly support him? I had a feeling that if more of them felt as their neighbors did, they’d have signs for Harris, too, but they didn’t. Perhaps they find it safer to say nothing. It will be very interesting to see the vote tallies from areas like this.
