A Hitler smile is creepy enough, but a Hitler smile with teeth? Uber creepy.

[First Speaker]

21. Isn't it weird? He almost looks avuncular...even "nice"...

...ever read Ron Rosenbaum's book on Hitler? It actually discusses whether or not Hitler's baby pictures are immoral, because he looks "innocent" in them...one of the great books of our time...

[forest444]

24. It is, isn't it.

When picking one out, I wanted one with that slightly manic "look at what I can get away with!" smirk one sees so often in Wall Street and such.

What a world.

[vadermike]

Getting any media play? I hope do

Ye gods, I'll be glad when this is over and we welcome Madam President!

[INdemo]

43. Hitler was never elected

Adolf Hitler took the reins of a 14-year-old German democratic republic as Chancellor.
(from the rise of Hitler)

Hitler was never elected. He was appointed by the then President of Germany of which that office was soon after his appointment was eliminated.

Note: this is what is scary about Donald Trump and his followers and the Republican Party allowing this to happen. The attempts to suppress the votes for Hillary etc.

[Maeve]
