    Unless someone dies in an accident everyone becomes disabled at some point in their life. In America that which doesn’t kill you becomes a preexisting condition.

    I have profound and unwavering respect for the patriots that miss, hit an ear, and make their mark. Treasonous subhuman fuck of a shit stain. His supporters all belong behind bars or worse.

      Wasn’t mein kampf the only book he"s read?

      I remember at some point it came out he kept it on his bedside table.

      Hitler wanted to exterminate anyone that was different, and he took his inspiration from how America was treating Black/Native populations but also people with disabilities and LGBTQ.

      There’s always a huge focus on the victims who were Jewish, but they were only like 50% of the Holocaust victims. Still a majority of victims but just barely.

      Post-nazi society wouldn’t tolerate them going after people for being Jewish so they focused on the other groups. They just focus on whatever group of “others” is the least protected that’s who they prioritize as victims.

        Tried to read Mein Kampf years ago. The writing was such a clusterfuck I couldn’t go on. I don’t mean I disagreed, I mean I couldn’t make out what he was saying, at all.

        Ever read the transcript of a Trump speech? Not even one of the crazy ones people paste on the internet, just an everyday speech. That’s what reading Hitler’s babbling was like.

        It was a book of Hitler’s speeches, but I don’t think he’s actually read even that.

      I doubt Trump could philosophically defend this as well, so Adolf goddamned Hitler somehow comes out as more intellectually honest, at least.

      Aktion T4 was a campaign of mass murder by involuntary euthanasia in Nazi Germany. The term was first used in post-war trials against doctors who had been involved in the killings.[4] The name T4 is an abbreviation of Tiergartenstraße 4, a street address of the Chancellery department set up in early 1940, in the Berlin borough of Tiergarten, which recruited and paid personnel associated with Aktion T4.[5][b] Certain German physicians were authorised to select patients “deemed incurably sick, after most critical medical examination” and then administer to them a “mercy death” (Gnadentod).[7] In October 1939, Adolf Hitler signed a “euthanasia note”, backdated to 1 September 1939, which authorised his physician Karl Brandt and Reichsleiter Philipp Bouhler to begin the killing.

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktion_T4

      I hate the use of “euthanasia” and “mercy death”. This was genocide, perpetrated by nazi germany and nazi doctors.

        Thanks for the summary, hadnt really heard of the specifics of this.

        I think genocide isnt really the right term here, but i agree with the sentiment that it should be treated as such.

          Yep. It’s crazy to me the term used by the nazis “involuntary euthanasia” is the same that is used by wikipedia.

          Its like calling “rape”, “involuntary lovemaking”.

        That would be hilarious if someone prepared a bunch of little clips of things Hitler said that Trump also says very similar things to, and then anytime he says one, just respond by playing a clip of Hitler saying basically the same thing, and giving a ‘Do I need to say more?’ look.

    Why is sociopathy and psychopathy not a condition requiring treatment? This guy would have needed serious help 80 years ago, as he is unable to live in and contribute to society, and now people think he’s qualified to shape it?

      Because people like that tend to get themselves into positions of power, and so prevent that sort of thing from happening.

    He’s just saying the part no one says out loud. Having a disability that prevents you from working is a death sentence in the US.

      Hey! He survived his own personal Vietnam!

      “It’s amazing, I can’t even believe it. I’ve been so lucky in terms of that whole world, it is a dangerous world out there. It’s like Vietnam, sort of. It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider,” Trump said in the interview when Howard Stern asked how he handled making sure he wasn’t contracting STDs from the women he was sleeping with.

    Obviously horrible thing to say, but it’s not new or off brand. If you were in for Trump, the cruelty is the point.

    At least we’ve begun to dig ourselves out of the giant shit hole which was Joe Bidens candidacy. I mean what does it take to be less popular than a guy who says shit like this?

      If you came out in favor of helping people with disabilities, you’d be very unpopular with many right-wing people, so I don’t understand the question about Biden.

        Its really irrelevant what Trump supporters think is the point. The Biden question is rhetorical.

        Trump says asshole shit like this all the time, and yet Biden was and has continued to be less popular than this guy.

        So who do you think this article works on rhetorically? Whose mind is changed because of this “revelation”? This kind of relentless focus on the shittiness of Trump is not and has not changed any minds in 8 years. Shitty people who go for Trump don’t fucking care. Sane people who reject this kind of shit are never voting for Trump.

        We make no ground in beating Trump with articles like this because no minds are changed.

        Yep. When I became disabled my right wing (ex)-friends told me I should probably use assisted suicide because this was “no way to live”. Fuck those ableist people. I’m here happy with life.
