So now that the left is convinced that Hitler has taken over the White House, let's compare Trump to their idol FDR.

So you say you don't like Trumps temporary ban on immigration when it comes to the 7 most terrorist ridden countries in the world? Compare this to FDR. The U.S. immigration system severely limited the number of German Jews admitted during the Nazi years to about 26,000 annually — but even that quota was less than 25% filled during most of the Hitler era, because the Roosevelt administration piled on so many extra requirements for would-be immigrants.

FDR was also hard on the black population.
The Wagner Act (1935) harmed blacks by making labor union monopolies legal. Economists Thomas E. Hall and J. David Ferguson explained: “By encouraging unionization, the Wagner Act raised the number of insiders (those with jobs) who had the incentive and ability to exclude outsiders (those without jobs). Once high wages have been negotiated, employers are less likely to hire outsiders, and thus the insiders could protect their own interest.”

By giving labor unions the monopoly power to exclusively represent employees in a workplace, the Wagner Act had the effect of excluding blacks, since the dominant unions discriminated against blacks. The Wagner Act had originally been drafted with a provision prohibiting racial discrimination. But the American Federation of Labor successfully lobbied against it, and it was dropped. AFL unions used their new power, granted by the Wagner Act, to exclude blacks on a large scale. Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. DuBois, and Marcus Garvey were all critical of compulsory unionism

You say Trump is a racist? How about FDR locking up Japanese Americans simply because they had slanty eyes. German Americans were left alone. No doubt, FDR would have hated Trump cuz he is orange, an color which is an obvious sign that he is genetically inferior.

So the next time a vacuous Dim comes up to you and starts railing against Trump, feed them full of these facts. Just be prepared to be shouted down or have your car torched cuz that's all Dims are capable of doing in response.

FDR is a piece of shit....

Trump is the sewage treatment plant.....

The world will be a bttter place after Trump does his job......
 
How does any of that absolve Trump? It's a strawman argument that belongs in 'History', not 'Politics'.

Absolve Trump from what? The media has lied that he banned Muslims when, in reality, better than 85% of Muslims around the world were not effected by the ban.

Obama also limited immigration from places like Iraq without a peep from hypocritical shill tools like yourself.

Yes but Dims will go to their graves defending the honor of FDR cuz he introduced positive rights that led to our current nanny state.

Interestingly, Hitler did the same.
 
The people who write ... that was just History ... will be the first ones to jump on the 'Jefferson owned slaves' bandwagon.

Oh I agree, I was just visualizing a comparison between the two.....

Democrats are running full steam left,towards fascism.....they were on that path before FDR but, FDR did put in place much of the infrastructure dems need to implement total fascism.....

Trump and his spokespeople have called it a ban in the past. As much as he would like it, there are no "1984"-style "memory holes", so don't complain if his inability to control his own mouth comes back to haunt him. Also, Obama instituted a slow-down, not an outright ban. Try and get your facts straight and you won't look as foolish as Trump has in court.

So?

Jefferson actually wanted to free the slaves in the Declaration of Independence, but was thwarted cuz they just had to get the Constitution ratified by all the slave owners.

Because he compromised it lead to institutionalize slavery and a Civil War that took the lives of over a million people.

Obviously, Jefferson at least knew better and actually had a conscience, compared to a sociopath like FDR.

I see, so allegedly misspeaking is all the reason to continue to spread the lies?

Epic fail.

So Obama "slowed down" immigration instead of banning it? LMAO! Is that kinda like Obama refusing to all the war in Libya a war so he would not have t consult Congress under the War Powers Act? I reckon you are into alternate truths. Why then don't you like Trump?

If Trump is half the POTUS FDR was, we are all FUCKED!!!
 
Back then:



Not a word!

And now: OUTRAGE!

These people are lunatics, simple as that.
 
No matter what his critics say, FDR's accomplishments, programs, and influence are still in place over seven decades after his Presidency ended with his death. The vast majority of Americans are still benefitting from those accomplishments and programs.

You say Trump is a racist? How about FDR locking up Japanese Americans simply because they had slanty eyes. German Americans were left alone. No doubt, FDR would have hated Trump cuz he is orange, an color which is an obvious sign that he is genetically inferior.

So the next time a vacuous Dim comes up to you and starts railing against Trump, feed them full of these facts. Just be prepared to be shouted down or have your car torched cuz that's all Dims are capable of doing in response.

I'm not aware that there's wide support in hindsight, from modern day liberals, for those policies.

I honestly think President Trump is more comparable to LBJ. Both were ego driven dealmakers who had an unquestionable focus on their sex organs. Could be that we get some good legislation out of President Trump. Hopefully not a Vietnam war.

No, I meant that Americans are still benefitting from his infrastructure building projects and his programs like Social Security. We are still using electricity from the dams he built, still using many of the buildings he built and still using the roads and bridges he built.
