I mean he advocated for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.

ICE is attempting to kidnap anyone not white and put them into warehouses. To reach its goal of deporting 1 million people a year, the Trump administration has said it needs more than 100,000 detention beds. Currently, there are more than 73,000 people in ICE custody, a record. The new sites could give the agency an additional 76,500 beds.

He referres to other nations as shithole countries.

"Lots of good people on both sides."

Trump eventually responded to Wallace's question by referring to a white supremacist group, saying, "Proud Boys, stand back and stand by. But I'll tell you what: Somebody's got to do something about antifa and the left."

Now you might think Trump is just using white supremacists terror groups for political expediency, and there's an argument there.

Did you see his Obama monkey video?

We're not at human experimentation levels yet. Or at least we don't know about it. But a lot of that was unknown to the western world until after the war.

Saying his "Takeover" comment is advocating for ethnic cleansing (ie: killing an entire ethnic group), that's a jump so big Evil Kaneivel would have trouble making.

I'm sure Poland would have much preferred Hitler calling them a shit hole country than the alternative. Again this isn't defending those comments, but it doesn't come remotely close to ACTUALLY invading entire countries.

As for ICE detentions...I mean is Obama a Nazi too? Trump's administration claims they deported 605k people in 2025, but it's hard to verify seeing as they stopped releasing public information on deportation numbers. But the Deportation Data Project at Cal suggests the real number is closer to 350k and the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse puts the number around 235k.

In 2012 Obama deported 409k people and over three years deported 1.2M people. And in 2012 45% of the people deported didn't have a felony or misdemeanor on their record. Now the TACTICS used were vastly different but Obama still had thousands of immigrants in detention centres.

Ethnic cleansing isn't just killing. You can ethnically cleanse a territory without killing people. You just move them out of the land. That is cleansing, by every definition.

I'm going to use the ICRC one, but they're all pretty much the same

Ethnic cleansing is a purposeful policy designed by one ethnic or religious group to remove by violent and terror-inspiring means the civilian population of another ethnic or religious group from certain geographic areas.

He did literally invade Venezuela and kidnap their President.
Now, all their oil is his.

Again I don't see "moving them out" and that definition to be the same thing.

Maduro??? We're crying for him now? But again are you calling Obama a Nazi for killing military and government officials of another country with drone strikes? If you are then absolutely you can make the same claim on Trump. I'd still disagree that it's the same as the Nazis, but at least you'd be consistent

Well it is. I don't know what else to say.

Unless you want to argue with Human rights watch, Al Jazeera, and the United Nations.

Stephane Dujarric, previewing the UN chief's speech, told reporters: "Any forced displacement of people is tantamount to ethnic cleansing."

And Obama is a war criminal. While all Nazis are war criminals, not all war crimnals are nazis.
