Trump is one of the dumbest men on the planet. However, he has clearly stumbled onto a disturbing social skill…Just like Hitler (who was also known to be an idiot).
I actually read the full article on this one. There are a lot of good points and similarities. Did he study Hitler’s speeches? I doubt Mr. “Nuke the storm” or “inject bleach” is capable of studying. I think it’s much more likely that he either blindly stumbled into the same success or learned a few tidbits from what he heard.
I differentiate ‘learn’ and ‘study’, the same way I might pick up a few words words from vacation abroad, vs cracking open a text book. “Fake news” probably comes up in a Hitler speech as much as bano and cerveza do on a vacation in Mexico.
I was saying that the German original is even dumber than the translation. It’s my understanding that the translation is in properly written English, while the original is in poorly edited hick German.
I highly recommend actually reading “Mein Kampf”. After the opening paragraph we should talk again about Hitlers intelligence.
That man was an absolute buffoon, but he was highly intelligent in a social sense of the word. Not entirely unlike Trump.
You make a good point.

The translators do him some seriously unearned favors.
No, it’s not really any better in German. The man wasn’t very smart, he hit a nerve.
Hitler im Original ist grausam. Allein seine seitenlange Tiervergleiche. Ich kann Serdar Somuncus Lesung von Mein Kampf sehr empfehlen.

Ah, yeah, now that I reread it, that makes more sense. My bad.
