Is this actual evidence of an unnerving affinity?
Sarah P at C&L writes,
It is well known that Trump slept with a copy of My New Order, a collection of Hitler's speeches, on his nightstand.
"Well known"?
Is it known at all?
Well, it's known, or close enough, that he was given a copy of that book by a friend many years ago.
The story that he keeps it on his nightstand is based on a reputed claim of an ex wife to a divorce lawyer.
Too, according to a different site,
In the Vanity Fair article, Ivana Trump told a friend that her husband's cousin, John Walter "clicks his heels and says, 'Heil Hitler," when visiting Trump's office.
Maybe not the best source.
Meanwhile, Trump the non-interventionist is frightening neocon war lovers to defect . . . to Hillary.
And Scott McConnell thinks The Donald is "a moderate Republican."
Christie’s endorsement obviously helps Trump in a tactical sense, days before the critical Super Tuesday primaries.
It should do more in helping to define who Trump is and what his rise means.
Populist, yes, kind of.
Pro-working class?
Well, certainly working class voters have been extraordinarily responsive to his campaign.
But with what politicians, in what category, should he be grouped?
On that score, we’ve seen an extraordinary amount of heavy breathing fright-mongering.
But as the evidence mounts, the category that includes Rockefeller, Nixon, Ford, and now Chris Christie is easily the best fit.
