As Townhall reports, the Biden-Harris campaign is focused on comparing former and potentially future President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler, from posts sent from the X Biden-Harris HQ account to comments from Vice President Kamala Harris. This tactic is part of a focus on making Trump seem extreme and a danger and threat to democracy, all while liberal judges favor an anti-democratic move, as the Colorado Supreme Court just did by kicking Trump out of the legislature. . ballot. The Plain Dealer, an Ohio-based outlet that is part of Cleveland.com, also published a political cartoon of Jeff Darcy. It even claims to be “the largest newspaper in Ohio.”
The cartoon appears below Darcy’s page on Cleveland.com and entry has been archived. User
The cartoon uses Trump’s mug shot and Hitler’s “Mein Kampf,” although in this case it is called “Mein Trumpf” and is intended to be a “Mar-a-Lago Christmas card” with Trump wearing a Santa hat. There is also an inscription on it: “LUST FOR THE POISONING BLOOD OF OUR COUNTRY”, written in one font and in one color. A different font and color reads “HEIL PUTIN!!” and “HEIL KIM JONG UN!!” You can barely see the Hitler-style mustache, which is blonde in an attempt to match Trump’s hair color.

It’s also quite gloomy that a cartoonist for one of the “best newspapers” in the country creates content using Microsoft Paint, but that’s a different issue.

Trump won Ohio in 2016 AND in 2020, in both cases by about 8 points. Polls show it too with vigorous lead in Ohio’s March Republican primary as well as in general elections for a hypothetical 2020 rematch between Trump and current President Joe Biden.
Darcy’s other political cartoons, shared on his website and on Channel X, also feature Trump – for three days in a row from December 20-22.

The Hitler-Trump comparison is as ancient as it is deeply problematic for several reasons. He is insensitive to Hitler’s victims and slothful at the same time.
But again, this is all part of a broader narrative on the left that seems terrified of the prospect of Biden meeting Trump again, especially since Trump actually leads in the polls this time. According to RealClearPolling Trump currently has the upper hand +2.3 over Biden.
Polls have already shown that the extremism narrative may not work as Biden and Democrats hope. Last week we highlighted that a Cygnal poll shows that more Americans actually see the Democratic Party as more extreme, and a Harvard-Harris poll released over the weekend also shows that 59 percent of voters agree with the statement that “Democrats are trying to unfairly intimidate voters over Donald Trump, calling him a dictator.”
