by Horace Bloom (Author)
In the wake of the election of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States, Americans aren't sure what to make of their new Commander-In-Chief. No one really knows what kind of President Mr. Trump will be. Both the style and content of his approach to politics feels unprecedented, and yet, people are looking for historical parallels to provide some perspective.
Like it or not, the most historical figure most commonly referred to as an analogue to Donald Trump is Adolf Hitler. Instead of dismissing the parallels, isn't it time that we confront them, and consider them seriously?
In this second edition of Trump and Hitler, Horace Bloom analyzes the personalities, careers, and ideologies of Hitler and Trump. The result is a nuanced portrait of the political moment we find ourselves in, acknowledging the importance of both similarities and differences between these two fascinating figures.
Avoiding both alarmist hyperbole and dismissive denial of the troubling nature of this historical moment, Bloom provides a reasonable framework for Americans as they face the bewildering years ahead.
