While there are a lot of incompetent idiots in this admin, don't forget that a lot of them are grifters who are only trying to get rich/powerful while they can.

I don't like doing the Hitler comparison, but the similarities are definitely there. A lot of the Nazis thought Hitler was a "useful idiot" that they could use and then get rid of. Trump is very similar.
- ytpete 1y agoI would imagine this is true of many other dictators and authoritarians over time too: Putin, Kim Jong Un, etc. If you are looking for non-Hitler comparisons.
