Many say that Trump is like Hitler, and if not like Hitler, he is speaking to people similar to the Nazis.

The German hierarchy; government, media, academia, carefully groomed their people as early as late eighteenth century to hate others and promote the Volk- the real Germans. Dr. Konrad Adenauer said: “National Socialism could not have come to power in Germany if it had not found, in broad strata of the population, soil prepared for its sowing of poison. It is not accurate to say that the high military or the great industrialists alone bear the guilt.”
By the beginning of the 20th century, each year tens of thousands of anti-Semitic pamphlets were sent free to all officials of the state. They were in every library. By the 1920s, there were approximately 430 anti-Semitic associations and societies, including the List Society, the Austrian Alpine Association, The German Language Club, the German Social Party, and the Thule Society which spread Volkist racial propaganda.
