“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.

Looks like a direct Nazi prison guard comparison to me

I mean... who knows what rattles in his empty skull. For me he's just rambling. It could be about Nazi guards or about Germans in general. He's basically trying to say "Hamas is just hate while in Germany there was also some basic human kindness". It's obviously bullshit but translating it to "nazis treated Jews with love" is taking it too far.

The Lemmy hivemind cares not for nuance.
