Full quote though it’s not really any better:
“I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.
“Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.
“People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.
“No, they didn’t do that, they’d slap us,” Trump said the hostages told him about Hamas, while sitting next to the man who is currently leading Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “Their hatred is unbelievable.”
I always knew about the gaschambers, but never really thought about how it was done, until I saw this video recently
It made me realize just how fucked up these people where.
Visit a concentration camp someday if you get the opportunity
I visited auschwitz when I was 15 on a achool trip, the entire place felt very dark. But I was too young (and stupid) to really understand the horrors that happened at that place.
The first time I got chills from an animated YouTube video. Crazy to think that people who are OK with this still exist and walk among us.
Like this, he means?
Bet commenting this would get you a ban on reddit these days.
You can see how open they are to this by how they dress. Very free. Lying down to show how comfortable they are in the situation.
They covered the victims’ faces so the cowards maybe won’t have to live with what they’ve done.
Y’know, “love” and “generosity.”
So, confirmed Nazi - again. How long will it be before someone stops him?
Yeeeeaaaah…about that…
I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news.
Someone ping me when the ADL condemns Trump for this.
Why would they care about dead Jews from 80 years ago when trump is giving them the green light on killing Palestinians now?
When he’s done with the Palestinians, his love for the Jewish people and Israel will evaporate.
Authoritarian support of Zionism has never been about giving the Jewish people a place to live, but instead about having an excuse to exile the Jews in their midst. Zionism is anti-Semitic.

Ain’t no hate like conservative “love.”
I’ve been trying to think of a phrase to use on a sign for the 50501 protest on 4/19 and I think this might be the one
Do it. All my little quotes are free.
if they’re redefining terms that way
so thats what nazis called the gas eh. can we get trump some of that love?
Trump is a violent rapist so it “makes sense”
And still students disliking genocide are the antisemites according to AIPAC and co.
Honestly, at this point I’m convinced that it’s AIPAC that is still spreading the meme that disillusioned Palestinians and their supporters cost Kamala the election. The really pro Palestine leftists are the type to either never participate in electoral politics anyway, or were strategic enough to vote for Kamala. Trump won because white middle America voted for him, not due to a handful of student protesters. I think AIPAC is still pushing the “Palestine protesters lost Kamala the race” as a means of making the Palestinian cause more unpopular. And frankly, it’s working. Any story on Gaza will have people gleefully celebrating it
Do you really think some white middle class middle Americans that only vaguely care about Palestine weren’t moved a notch against voting for Harris? There was percentage of them that was demotivated by a straw that broke the camels back.
Or more significantly that young new voters weren’t moved in this direction by pro-palestinian tiktok?
Sure, I wouldn’t put all the blame on that, but some of the blame goes there.
Also I fucking hate Leftists who “never vote” anyway so fuck them regardless.
Wouldn’t this be considered a form of Holocaust denial, which would make Trump supporters Holocaust-denier supporters?
I mean, a very large percentage of them are holocaust deniers already.
So having asked the German state attorney I know, he has confirmed my hunch. If Trump were to say this in Germany, that would constitute “Volksverhetzung” literally incitement of the people according to § 130 StGB (German penal code) which is punishible from a fine to 3 years in prison. And to add, it’s pretty clear cut.
Since he’s a foreign dignitary (fuck it feels wrong to call him that), he has diplomatic immunity though
Holy follow-up Batman! I’m with you on how bummed I am that we will never see him punished, but I appreciate you actually getting an answer on the law.
Cheers brother!
I’m now officially convinced we all died during covid and went to hell
It’s even worse. Christians fight hard to make hell on earth a reality so they can live for ever in peace in make believe land when they are no longer living?! Make it make sense.
Make it make sense.
It’s a death cult. It’s symbol is a half-naked tortured dying man being executed via nailed to a cross, took one look for me as a child to figure that out.
Yup this is the shittiest episode of lost yet.
I don’t want to defend Trump in anyway but this is a hystirical headline meant to generate clicks and attention.
“I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.
“Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said, absurdly comparing the hostages’ situation to the Holocaust, which murdered six million Jews.
“People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.
“No, they didn’t do that, they’d slap us,” Trump said the hostages told him about Hamas, while sitting next to the man who is currently leading Israel’s genocide in Gaza. “Their hatred is unbelievable.”
What I think he is trying to say in a very weird way is Nazi’s treated Jews better than Hamas does now.
Yes the orange monkey is very stupid and crazy for saying shit like this, again I don’t want to defend him in any way but the article does not say that Trump thinks Nazi’s loved Jews.
What do you mean hysterical headline? He said exactly what the headline said. In the full context he looks stupider but what he said is the same.
Why are you trying to defend a guy saying the Nazis were gooder than Hamas? Why would you ever take that fight unless you are a liar or stupid?
You’re participating in the old good tradition of sanewashing what Trump said. You don’t need to interpret that jumble of sounds as charitably as possible, he doesn’t deserve it, and he repeatedly showed that he actually means the worst most of the time. He said “nazis showed signs of love to holocaust victims” with his own stupid mouth. You don’t need to excuse him by interpreting it as if he didn’t say it.
I knew this thread would be FILLED with Trump apologist. He literally said “was there any love?.. Like there was in Germany”
It’s not taking it too far. It’s what he said. We don’t need to figure out if he meant a prison guard or Germans in general. We don’t need to excuse what he meant by adding precision he didn’t add. According to Trump there was love for Jews in Nazi Germany.
I’m so glad to see at least a few people resisting the sanewashing.
Jesus fucking Christ. It is a sad day when a person that actually read the article and provided context and quotes to rebuke an obvious clickbait title is accused of sanewashing Trump.
Sometimes Lemmy can be a worse disinformation-spreading echo chamber than Reddit ever was. Be better.
Thanks, there is a lot of sanewashing going on in the media and lemmy. Me trying to explain why he might say something as stupid and hurtful like this is perhaps also sanewashing him. But I did want to post those quotes mainly because I feel Lemmy and the Internet is general is better off if we base our hate and dislike (which I certainly agree with in Trumps) on things that actually happend.
Yes Trump said something very crazy, even for him more crazy than usual but falling for headlines like this is not gonna make it easier to talk with people who support Trump or someone like him and polarization played, I think, a huge part in why he could get elected. If we choose to make lemmy a place that polarizes people it will give people like Trump power.
He didn’t literally say “Nazi’s threated Jewish people with love”, it is crazy he implied it but I want to point out the difference because if you ads in an argument with someone supports trump you only have a valid point if you use factual truths and if you’d tell a trump supporter that trump thinks Nazi’s loved Jews they could easily say you’re wrong because you’re not using his own words but a dramatized version of them.
on things that actually happend.
The thing you’re saying didn’t happen literally happen, what are you talking about?
Not literally - several sentences are being condensed together, but it’s abundantly clear that Bonespurs still has his head completely up his ass. I can’t believe that waste of oxygen is representing the United States to the rest of the world. AGAIN.
He is an accurate representative for your clown country.
IDC that this one is also bad for americans. If anything I enjoy it.
And what did you have before?
The embarrassing and demented Genocide Joe.
Really, I hope this orange moron continues to destroy that cancer country.
The best thing that could happen for the world.Ah yes, putting a Nazi in charge of the most powerful military in the world while starting a global trade war is somehow good for the world.
Ok guy.
They are bombing people, supporting genociders no matter who’s in charge of your military.
The trade war which the US will lose is only expediating the decline of the US imperialist regime, so that IS good for the world.
As an extra it’s great entertainment watching whatever stupid thing Trump does.
And they are far from the most powerful military, they are a bunch of weak cowards who lost everything from Vietnam/Korea up to running like pussies from Afghanistan.Hahaha ok dipshit

Now more than ever should be a good time for anyone who hasn’t done it yet to watch Schindler’s List. I think everyone should watch this movie. Boring historical facts and statistics do not convey it the way the movie does.
Did I read that right ?
He asked “was there any sign of love?”
And the answer was basically “no”
He didn’t say that the Nazis did but he claimed it?
He didn’t seem to say it outright, but that’s enough for the liberal masses to skew his words
It was a bit of a rhetorical question I think. The quote was a bit difficult to read and it took me a couple tries to get it
“I said to them, was there any sign of love?” Trump said, recounting his conversation with released hostages.
“Did the, Hamas, show any signs of like, help? Or liking you? Did they wink? Did they give you a piece of bread extra? Did they give you a meal on the side? … Like, you know, what happened in Germany?” Trump said
Yea, that’s what I got from it too. I just couldn’t believe what I was reading at first. I had to read it several times.
