Melania Trump on husband: 'He's not Hitler'

[kpete]

Melania Trump wants to be clear: Her husband, Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, is "not Hitler."

“We know the truth. He’s not Hitler. He wants to help America. He wants to unite people," the prospective first lady said in an interview with DuJour magazine published Tuesday, when asked about comedian Louis C.K.'s lengthy letter to fans in March in which he proclaimed that the Manhattan reality-star-turned-politician "is Hitler."

At the same time, Trump added that it is possible her husband "needs to say it in a softer way," noting that with respect to his call to ban Muslims from entering the United States, it's only "temporary."

"He doesn’t go after religions. He feels like we need to know who’s coming to this country. If not, we don’t have a country," she said, echoing her husband. "That’s how he feels. We see how he is, and he wants to unite the country and bring people together and bring jobs back.”

1. She loves her husband, I guess

She's still dumb.

[Siwsan]

52. She might be getting paid by the word

with bonus bucks for pushing the lies.

[liberal N proud]

2. No, but he is trying really hard, really, really hard.

[Divine Discontent]

72. he's a bad copy... which is still, bad...

[no_hypocrisy]

3. Eva Braun would have said that Hitler wasn't Hitler . . . . .

[greatauntoftriplets]

4. And, presumably, Hitler thought he was helping Germany.

[no_hypocrisy]

5. Though an Austrian, he thought he was the SAVIOR of Germany.

[Rocknrule]

6. He was Making Deutschland Great Again

[Mme. Defarge]

36. Bwaaaaaaaa!

[Mass]

7. BTW, she disappeared from the campaign trail...

What happened to her?

This said, it is never good when you have to defend your husband by saying " he is not Hitler" .

[OnDoutside]

10. She's been busy preparing for her "Green Card" news conference....

[Ron Obvious]

8. High praise indeed. n/t

[OnDoutside]

9. Excellent "Trump" and "Hitler" in the same sentence, by his own 3rd wife.... :)

[Hugin]

11. No, not Hitler... Trump's more of a Benito Mussolini.

or a Hermann Wilhelm Göring type.

[duncang]

12. Everybody knows that. He's dipshit donnie drumph

The man who said their should be a data base of all Muslims and mosques needed to be watched is not going after religions? Someone who tweets supremacists logos even showing them at rallies wanting to bring people together?

[procon]

13. Its the bestest campaign slogan evah! "Trump! He’s not Hitler." nt

[Gabi Hayes]

31. this? sort of fits the mode, yes?

'course, for Trump, it's not true

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

14. No, he's more like a third rate Mussolini. nt

[HipChick]

15. Trump, he's just not Hitler!

but just sure sounds like him...

[Gidney N Cloyd]

16. They ALL want to "unite people." But they want us united in agreeing with THEM.

And they'll lock up, deport, etc. the dissenting side in order to achieve that.

[Wounded Bear]

19. Yep, pretty much...

It's either "believe me" or "trust me" or some other bullshit.

Mostly it's "Be reasonable, do it MY way."

[underpants]

17. Do not speak it. This is worthy of a Trump saaaaalute

[malthaussen]

18. Setting the bar pretty low, aren't we, Melania?

And Uncle Adolf wanted to help people, too. The question was which people.

[Happyhippychick]

20. A new campaign slogan is born

She's so pathetic

[hunter]

45. The sad thing is that "He's not Hitler" probably works for Trump supporters.

I'm looking forward to voting for President Camacho over his "He's not Hitler" opposition.

The Trump campaign demonstrates just how close to Idiocracy we are.

[Happyhippychick]

50. And "idiotcracy"!!!!

[C_U_L8R]

21. Of course not, Trump lies more.

But imagine a nuclear armed Hitler
and that pretty much sums up what
Trump aspires to be. Leader of the world.
And there's nothing Free about it.

[GeorgeGist]

22. I agree ...

he's more like el Douche

[Enrique]

23. "I'm not Hitler, I'm you"

[jberryhill]

58. O.M.G.

The judge is just about getting around to issuing an opinion in the FEC case against her.

An unusual one, that lady is. The crowning gem of the Diamond State.

[randome]

24. Hitler had a moustache.

[calguy]

25. The biggest difference between Trump and Hitler is

Hitler is dead and Trump is not yet dead. Other than that, not much difference.

[DesertRat]

26. He's not Hitler

But he's clearly a racist and a liar who peddles divisive conspiracy theories.

[librechik]

27. off mic: "More like Goehring."

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

28. Pretty sad, when you feel you have to defend the guy

by saying "he's not Hitler." Anyhow, he's actually more like Mussolini.

[jberryhill]

59. Oh... I thought you meant Hitler, for a moment

Hitler would play Trump like a fiddle. At least Hitler had some grasp of geopolitics.

[Action_Patrol]

29. If you have to address it...

http://www.anxiousandangry.com/product/adolf-trump-tee-shirt

Nope, nothing like Hitler. Just happens to be a Nationlistic, xenophobic racist.

Nothing at all like Hitler, nope not at all.

[Brother Buzz]

30. That was back in May

I understand handlers will not let her speak to the media anymore

[BlueStreak]

32. "Oh and also, I am not a stripper"

Just ignore all those pictures.

[tblue37]

33. That's a pretty low bar to clear for a presidential candidate. Ant

[Coyotl]

34. That's a reason to support him? ROTFFLMFAO Hitler was benign before being elected.

Trump can't be Hitler, he's not in power! But if he ever were in power, he could be far worse than Hitler.

[tenderfoot]

35. Melania Trump: Mail order call girl

as heartless as her disgusting husband.

[book_worm]

37. "He's not Hitler!...Goebbels maybe, but not Hitler!"

[Gothmog]

38. Melania Trump needs trump to stay in the US

[Paladin]

39. If he's not, Mrs. Trump, he's way too obvious a place-holder for him. (nt)

[lindysalsagal]

40. Make America Melania Again.

Keep this fool, and fRump's son, talking.

"Please, proceed."

[Initech]

41. NEIN!!!!!

[lastlib]

42. No, but he COULD be Mussolini......

Il Douche!

[Shankapotomus]

43. When you have to clarify that a presidential nominee is not Hitler

eh....there's a chance he might be Hitler.

[Maine-i-acs]

44. "He's more of a Quisling, actually" she added. nt

[roamer65]

46. He's the Mango Mussolini.

[DavidDvorkin]

47. Hitler displayed courage under fire.

[harrose]

48. Calling him a "Hitler" is an insult to Hitler.

This guy is a million times worse than Hitler ever could be.

[jberryhill]

61. Okay, so someone is going to rise to defend Hitler's good name?

Hitler was smarter, I guess.

Trump is a lot dumber.

I don't know whether that makes it worse, or better.

I guess with "dumb Hitler" you just jump right to the devastation of your own country, and skip the part with Liza Minelli.

[CBGLuthier]

49. Never thought he was. He is more of a Mussolini. Fat blustering and ultimately a failure.

[unblock]

51. Trump's new campaign slogan! "He's not hitler!"

[RKP5637]

53. She got it right, the last names are different! n/t

[jberryhill]

66. I haven't seen his birth certificate

So it might be too soon to jump to conclusions there.

[RKP5637]

70. Excellent point! He will have to prove to us he's not Hitler! Otherwise, silence will be

confirmation! I'm surprised the AntiChrist stuff hasn't popped up yet. FFS, for those that believe that stuff he must be the epitome of the AntiChrist!

[Monk06]

54. He's not Hitler and I am not a former escort for pay/trophy wife

[Skittles]

55. I imagine in the 30's there were people who were horrified by the rise of Hitler

much like sane people are horrified by the rise of Trump

[jberryhill]

60. Yes, but that clown could never be elected

[Skittles]

62. not sure you understand the power of misogyny

[jberryhill]

63. No,I was quoting what they said about Hitler

Everyone thought he was a doofus who'd never win office.

[Skittles]

64. you will find my mistake easily forgiveable

[jberryhill]

65. I'm fresh out of umbrage anyway

[Hekate]

56. That was in May. Where is Melania today? She's disappeared, and Cosmo is being "unfair" ....

...to Ivanka-Barbie.

Hmmm.

[HockeyMom]

57. Didn't Ivana say he read Mein Kamp every night before bed?

Maybe the (older) ex-wife knows more than the (much younger) current wife?

[cagefreesoylentgreen]

67. If you say so

If he's not Hitler, then he's Pol Pot.

[MuttLikeMe]

68. and I believe that our education such as South Africa and the Iraq

and everywhere such as

[Justice]

69. He is not Hitler - what a very strange statement.

[spanone]

71. go away trumps

[URL=.html][IMG][/IMG][/URL]

[Maru Kitteh]

73. So that's the sales pitch? No wonder the handlers put her on house arrest.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

74. He wants to unite people?

Well he's got a totally fucking piss poor way of showing it.

From my perspective he's a racist sexist bigoted asshole. I'm so sorry you can't see it Melania.
