When one likens an American politician to Hitler — as Timothy W. Ryback does in his April 8 op-ed article noting the similarities in how Hitler and Trump used their trials as soapboxes — no matter how much one dislikes that politician or disapproves of their words, thoughts and actions, much credibility is lost and the evil of Hitler is minimized.</small></blockquote></ref>

The June 2024 issue of the [[liberal]] ''[[New Republic]]'' mouthpiece featured a cover photo designed to inflame of President Trump with a Hitler moustache painted on for a cover story entitle ''American Fascism''.<ref>[https://newrepublic.com/series/37/trump-2024-american-fascism-series Yes, That’s Right: American Fascism], Michael Tomasky, ''New Republic'', May 16, 2024. newrepublic.com</ref><ref>[https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2024/07/16/an_assassination_attempt_was_inevitable_151272.html An Assassination Attempt Was Inevitable], By [[Dennis Prager]], July 16, 2024. realclearpolitics.com</ref><ref>[https://amgreatness.com/2024/07/21/is-left-wing-trump-as-hitler-iconography-in-the-mainstream-media-responsible-for-the-attempt-to-assassinate-the-45th-president/ Is Left-Wing Trump-as-Hitler Iconography in the Mainstream Media Responsible for the Attempt to Assassinate the 45th President?], By Richard Truesdell and Keith Lehmann, ''American Greatness'', July 21, 2024. amgreatness.com</ref> In a [[tweet]] explaining the cover the ''New Republic'' said "Today we at the ''New Republic'' think we can spend this this election year in one of two ways: we could spend it debating whether Trump meets the nine or 17 points that define [[fascism]].
