        Thanks. I do wonder why this non-American troll is so passionate about something that isn't even going to affect him.

            Agreed, but it was a strong policy statement of the future if Hitler got into power. - removal of the Jews from Europe - the subjugation of Slavs and other Untermenschen - the right of the Aryan race to take lands away from the Untermenschen for Lebensraum. - revolution after power - rebuild Germany's military Certainly nobody in Germany should have been too surprised about how things turned out.

                        More countries are proud of their military, and pledge each election to "spend more" to preserve their status.

                        Wouldn't know, I wasn't around. The book was forbidden here, but it would make a good example for literature-classes on how NOT to write.

                          Maybe. I am an American and I don't think it will affect me all that much. People read way too much into the campaign rhetoric. 90% of the stuff he said he would do as President, he can't do. The government has checks and balances for a reason. He can't do anything with taxes, he can't wake up one day and decide to launch nuclear missiles, he can't deport all of the people here illegally. It's just fear mongering to think he can and will do any of the stuff the media said he would do. He will find out once he is office that he can't actually do all that much just like Obama couldn't close Gitmo or implement universal healthcare or any of that other stuff he promised to do.

                            We can all rest easy on the fact that the U.S. Constitution prevents Trump, or any branch of government, from accumulating the level of power and authority that Hitler did. Unless they find a way to throw out the Constitution, we don't have to worry about the U.S. turning into a fascist state like Nazi Germany. Now, have we set the country back about 50 years? That is the question.

                                Umm, technically, he can. As Commander and Chief of the military, he has control of the nukes and can, without the approval of Congress, engage in a military conflict for up to 38 days.

                                Yes, he can. While he cannot change the laws, he can direct the manner in which they are enforced.

                                    Umm, technically, he can. As Commander and Chief of the military, he has control of the nukes and can, without the approval of Congress, engage in a military conflict for up to 38 days.

                                    Yes, he can. While he cannot change the laws, he can direct the manner in which they are enforced.

                                    Uhm, I disagree. There is no logistical way that millions of illegals can get deported. It's not going to happen.

                                      Maybe. I am an American and I don't think it will affect me all that much. People read way too much into the campaign rhetoric. 90% of the stuff he said he would do as President, he can't do. The government has checks and balances for a reason. He can't do anything with taxes, he can't wake up one day and decide to launch nuclear missiles, he can't deport all of the people here illegally. It's just fear mongering to think he can and will do any of the stuff the media said he would do. He will find out once he is office that he can't actually do all that much just like Obama couldn't close Gitmo or implement universal healthcare or any of that other stuff he promised to do.

                                      The problem is... even if it is not completely implemented some things will do cause the same effect than throwing a stone into a peaceful water. The waves are the ones that can have dumb effects. As much as I don't like it, (but I do realize about it), America and what happens in America has consequences in many other places over the world.

                                        Yes, deporting 11 million illegals is logistically impossible to accomplish in one presidential term. Can he do mass deportations? Yes. Is it likely? No.

                                        The way you can do this is to surround yourself with people that will not stand up and say no, to intentionally feed military intelligence miss-information, or get lost in group-think like the kind that lead to the 2003 Iraq invasion.
