The article is from November 2015.

It might have been written as propaganda against the future POTUS, but it would have been quite the foresight, as Trump wasn't even a credible candidate until the Iowa primary in February 2016.

The time the article was written, and the purpose for which it was written, is irrelevant. What’s relevant is the fact that it’s now being used to not-so-subtly attack Trump.

Maybe it’s a coincidence, or based on keywords in the article, or perhaps an editor carefully picked this specific video to prominently display below the article. Guess we’ll never know.

But it is quite telling that an article about Hitler/concentration camps focus on Trump rather than Xi Jinping/Xinjiang.
