There are a lot of objective parallels between the rise of Hitler and Trump. When people are comparing him with a facist it's not because they think that tomorrow he will build concentration camps but that he uses the same rhetoric.

Hell in big lines you can compare the arguments that a Hitler used to get in power against that of a Trump and see the same stuff popping up again and again.

Against the elite, the fault of a specific group, talking about deportations, bringing jobs back lost also by foreigners, inward views, derogatory views against foreign countries,... . The list goes on.

We should respect the choice Americans make but when the world is reacting anxious it's about more than simple cliches.
