Recently, it has become trendy among the left to liken Donald Trump to Hitler. It may sound like a childish and unintellectual argument, but that hasn’t stopped high-profile personalities like Cher, Louis C.K., and Sarah Silverman from making the outlandish comparison.
While they may represent the bottom of the barrel when it comes to political celebrities, now Barack Obama, the ultimate celebrity politician, is making very similar claims. Rather than call Trump Hitler, however, Obama is updating the well-worn insult and is comparing him to a jihadist instead.
The schoolyard comparison likely represents how little Obama can legitimately complain about Trump or his supporters. After all, much of the anger that has fueled Trump’s stratospheric rise was a result of eight years of failed leadership under Obama.
Rather than admit his failures, Obama has sunk to the lowest form of political argument.
See how the president made the subtle — but insulting — dig during his speech to the Democratic national Convention on the next page:
This thing is a liein sonabitch
Terrorist? Who is the terrorist here?
We know who the terrorist is, Obama and Hillary. Vote Donald Trump for President, he is for all Americans.
You stupid fucking Muslim$#%&!@*you are the terrorist
lynch mob
Obama knows all about terrorists, he practically is one.
Omg. How horrid. Who the hell is he
I am telling you all now. He is staying for a third term. Be warned
Near as i can figure, it’s Obama who has pledged (in writing in his book) to stand with the muslims.
Then he should send Trump Millions!!!!!
Black fool
