>I know what "hate" means Do you though? If you can't distinguish the difference between fear of the unknown and hatred, then you are fortunate enough to never have experienced hatred. Since everyone likes to compare Trump and Hitler. Hitler hated the Jews, which resulted in genocide. I've talked to several people who support what he did with the ban and it has nothing to do with hating Muslims or immigrants and its all driven by fear (statistically irrational) of attacks like the ones in Germany. I vote against allowing children to drive not because I hate them, but because I fear the thought of them driving on the same road as me. Do you see the difference?

The consequence of a child not being allowed to drive and not allowing human to enter a country where they maybe have lived for years are a bit different though.

  They are, but the motivation is the same. The motivation is what I'm highlighting (hate vs. fear).

I'm sure lots of people supported putting jews in camps that had nothing to do with anti-semitism.

Between hate and fear? Sure. The administration hates, some people let it slide because they fear. Oppose both.

And Hitler drove fear of the Jewish people taking over and kidnapping and killing christian children as his catalyst to power as well. There were negative traits ascribed to Jews, just as there are now of Muslims. Prior to implementing camps and genocide, Hitler stoked an environment of fear. Fear of the others. Hell, hatred of blacks in the American Antebellum South, and the hatred that continues to this day, stemmed from white people's fear of blacks. Fear inspires hatred. While they are not the same thing, they are related.
