The Left does the same darned thing every time: each Republican is the next reincarnation of LITERAL HITLER, until the next Republican comes along. George W. Bush was evil incarnate and Dick Cheney was the devil, until Donald Trump was a thing and now the Left misses W and Cheney.
They did the same thing with the late John McCain. The Left’s memory may not extended past last week, but this writer remembers, and remembers well, what the Left said about McCain when he ran for president in 2008.
So when someone says stuff like this:
I never cared for John McCain’s policies but I wasn’t afraid that he’d turn the US into a Nazi Fourth Reich when he ran for president.

It gets our attention because WE REMEMBER.
So does X, which also wasted no time calling him OUT:
Cool story bro. You know Trump’s already been president, right? Great economy, peace and prosperity, very low illegal immigration. Listened to people, left office peacefully.
Biden: weaponized justice system, profits off office, all about Hunter and James, wars everywhere.

Yep.
Trumps son in law is Jewish. He himself pushed for the Abraham accords. There’s a lot of stuff to dislike about Trump but being Hitleresque is not one of them.
— Phil (@RealPhillyP) June 4, 2024
No, it’s not one of them. At all.
Only Hitler was like Hitler. Any other comparison is an insult to the people Hitler killed.
To Dems, the only good GOP candidates are past failures, though at the time they were also literally Hitler.

Nailed it.
Strange New Respect for a guy who was at the time depicted as a dangerous warmonger bent on using the US military for mass slaughter. pic.twitter.com/kqbjaAkljM

The Left always find a strange new ‘respect’ for Republicans they once hated.
Because that’s exactly what happened during Trump’s first term, right?
— NOLA Nobody (@nola_nobody) June 4, 2024
Exactly. Affordable gas, affordable groceries, and no new wars.
JUST like Hitler’s Germany.
Or something.
Nazi allusions during political discourse are the hallmarks of a weak and already defeated mind.

Yes it is.
That’s ridiculous.

Oh, wait.
If your political memory doesn’t extend beyond yesterday this might be a convincing argument. https://t.co/JleWt8neyg pic.twitter.com/CWzVkBwgDx

For a lot of the Left, their memory doesn’t extend too far.
They literally tried to smear Sarah Palin as being a Nazi sympathizer because she wore a Buchanan button once in 1996 https://t.co/LaaJcAzSlE pic.twitter.com/gCClMEoJO0

See?
I’m old enough to remember when the Very Smart People rightly mocked McCain as a warmonger. 1/2 https://t.co/4ZCjpKyx0S pic.twitter.com/XaU2EfhiGk

We remember, too.
Biden said Romney was going to bring back slavery…
And so on. And so forth. Journos cheered. https://t.co/iLBziwQ6pw pic.twitter.com/MA1h5RAad7— Gray Connolly (@GrayConnolly) June 4, 2024
And the next Republican will be JUST LIKE HITLER and Trump will be the moderate they miss.
Bank on it.
Rs ran the single most milquetoast candidate to ever grace a ballot, and y’all said he gave a lady cancer, tortured dogs, and would reinstitute slavery. https://t.co/nGl6TB98dS

Every single one of you thought he was an evil, racist warmonger. https://t.co/AW4jGgZxpH pic.twitter.com/hDUDnUH0f8

BOOM.
And we’ll leave you on that note, ’cause there’s always a tweet.
