Retiring GOP congressman: Trump era 'could lead to a future Hitler-like character' in the US
|
[Washington Examiner] An outgoing Republican lawmaker warned Wednesday the country's current political climate could produce a figure like Nazi Germany's Adolf Hitler
"I want to be clear and explicit that I am not likening Trump to Hitler, but the forces at play could lead to a future Hitler-like character if we don’t watch out. It must be remembered that another thing that Benjamin Franklin said was that he who trades his freedom for security, deserves neither. Indeed, how true," Rep. Mark Sanford, R-S.C., wrote in a Facebook post, also referring to one of the nation's Founding Fathers.
The comments were supposed to be included in a farewell speech Sanford was due to deliver on the House floor last Thursday before lawmakers were called to deal with an imminent partial government shutdown and President Trump announcing his intention to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria. Sanford's parting message was one of thanks and caution, signaling that the country was headed toward "a shipwreck if we don’t change course."
