It’s Official: With “Vermin,” Trump Is Now Using Straight-up Nazi Talk He’s telling us what he will do to his political enemies if he’s president again. Is anyone listening?

I feel pretty safe in saying that we can now stop giving him the benefit of that particular doubt. His use—twice; once on social media, and then repeated in a speech—of the word “vermin” to describe his political enemies cannot be an accident. That’s an unusual word choice. It’s not a smear that one just grabs out of the air. And it appears in history chiefly in one context, and one context only.

    What’s his alternative? Not much choice when it’s a mess your country made and not supporting your spoilt brat would get you strung up in the town square.

      Do we live in Russia where you get Arrested when you don’t vote for Putin?

      Last time I checked nobody at the American voting booth is waiting to arrest you when you vote for a third party.

      Yet somehow people willingly vote for a guy they don’t want to vote for.
