Trump’s new low: Swiping at McConnell’s childhood polio.

Is it really a new low? I meant he pretty much does the equivalent of this just about daily. It's pretty standard at this point.

Oh look Hitler and Von Hindenburg all over again.

USA and Canada? You mean Germany and Austria?

Well at least my grandchildren may be able to see a newer version of Sound of Music when this is all done....

My poor children though... Hope not...

Hindenburg and the Rise of the Nazi Party An early critic of Hitler and the Nazi party, Hindenburg initially refused to give Hitler the chancellor title he demanded. But, pressured by his conservative inner circle and in response to the Nazi party’s growing power, he appointed Hitler to the leadership position, assured by his advisors that the Nazi agenda would be squelched.

Hitler quickly used Hindenburg’s decree powers to pass a number of mandates, including the 1933 Reichstag Fire Decree, the Enabling Act and the Law for the Protection of the People and the States.

In failing health, Hindenburg’s appointment essentially gave Hitler dictatorship powers, and when the president died at the age of 86 on August 2, 1934, Hitler appointed himself führer of Germany. Hindenburg was interred, along with the remains of his wife, TK, who died in TK, at the Tannenberg war memorial in Prussia. In 1946, they were moved to St. Elizabeth Church in Marburg, Germany.
