On the website of <em>The National Interest<\/em>, owned and operated by the Center for the National Interest, its editor Jacob Heilbrunn uses a review of Timothy Ryback\u2019s book <em>53 Days: How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy<\/em> to once again raise the specter of Trump as Hitler. And Heilbrunn does this without even mentioning Trump\u2019s name. But his message is clear: \u201crecalling the Nazi era remains as pertinent as ever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationallogisticspost.com\/?p=1365\">How Anthony Fauci and the 1980s AIDS Scare Shaped Public Fear<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Heilbrunn is too clever by half\u2026. [H]e leaves not so subtle literary crumbs for the crazy Left and TDSers to follow on the road to the Trump is Hitler conclusion.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ryback, who writes for the anti-Trump <em>Atlantic<\/em> magazine, is much more explicit on podcasts about the similarities and \u201cdisturbing echoes\u201d between Trump and Hitler. Back in 2024, Ryback told one interviewer that he felt a \u201csense of relief\u201d with Kamala Harris as the prospective Democratic Party presidential nominee, and was hopeful that \u201cdemocracy in America still has a chance.\u201d Ryback said that there are \u201csome rather disturbing rhymed couplets\u201d between Hitler and Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Heilbrunn in his review of Ryback\u2019s new book tries to obscure the obvious comparison to Trump by noting in his last paragraph that the German populist AfD Party \u201cdismisses the need for atonement of the Nazi past\u201d and seeks to subvert Germany\u2019s democracy. But Heilbrunn\u2019s real target is Trump. First, he praises Ryback for offering \u201ca timely reminder that Hitler and his camarilla did not engage in an illicit seizure of power, but, as the Nazis themselves liked to emphasize, openly obtained it by constitutional means.\u201d Donald Trump, of course, also returned to power by constitutional means by winning the popular vote and electoral college vote in the 2024 election, proclaiming proudly that he won every swing state.<\/p>\n<p>Next, Heilbrunn notes that Hitler attacked the press, purged the civil service, imposed tariffs on many countries, attacked the central bank, and denuded the German federal parliament of its powers, implementing what Heilbrunn refers to as \u201cProject 1933.\u201d Sound familiar?<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationallogisticspost.com\/?p=1364\">Meet America\u2019s New Un-Americans\u2026 the DSA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Trump has frequently called out the press in the United States for its clear biases against him and his administration. And Trump\u2019s \u201cProject 2025\u201d (actually, the Heritage Foundation\u2019s project but attributed to Trump as his master plan) involved levying tariffs on many countries, proposed changes to the Federal Reserve (our central bank), and promoted the dismantling and reshaping of federal agencies (the civil service).<\/p>\n<p>Hitler, Heilbrunn writes, targeted the German civil service, \u201cor, if you prefer, the deep state.\u201d The Nazis, Heilbrunn quotes Joseph Goebbels as saying, \u201cwere \u2018cleaning house,\u2019\u201d and placing their own people in power, claiming that they had been victims of an illegitimate Weimar government \u201cand that it was time for payback.\u201d Trump and his allies, who have been victims of the \u201cdeep state\u201d in Washington (the Russia Hoax being just one example) have called the Biden administration \u201cillegitimate\u201d and, like every presidential administration in the United States, have placed loyal allies in positions of power in Washington. And the Left accuses Trump of using the powers of the federal government to persecute his political opponents.<\/p>\n<p>Hitler tried to overthrow Weimar in the November 9, 1923 putsch, which would if successful first topple the Bavarian government then culminate in a \u201cmarch on Berlin.\u201d When the putsch failed, Hitler sought power by legal means. Heilbrunn and the Left in this country accuse Trump of mounting a putsch on January 6, 2021 (he didn\u2019t), and when that failed Trump ran for reelection and gained power by legal means. And Hitler only rose to power legally, Heilbrunn explains, because conservative German officials colluded with him. The Left in this country constantly criticize establishment Republicans for colluding with Trump out of concern for their political survival.<\/p>\n<p>Heilbrunn is too clever by half. Perhaps worried by the odious nature of explicitly comparing President Trump (the victim of multiple assassination attempts) to Hitler, he leaves not so subtle literary crumbs for the crazy Left and TDSers to follow on the road to the Trump is Hitler conclusion. The ownership and officers of the Center for the National Interest should be ashamed.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationallogisticspost.com\/?p=1362\">$230 Billion in Fraud Identified by White House Task Force<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ MORE from Francis P.
