MSNBC�s Joy Reid claimed on Monday that similarities between Adolf Hitler�s 
Nazi Germany and the United States under President Donald Trump are 
undeniable.

On The ReidOut, Reid likened Trump�s immigration policies and his talk about 
migrants to Hitler�s extermination of Jewish people and the Holocaust.

�History may not be verbatim, but it sure does rhyme,� she said as she showed 
images of World War II concentration camps.

According to Reid, Hitler was empowered by �business leaders who thought they 
could control him� and �millions of ordinary Germans who just wanted to make 
Germany great again.� She also compared Hitler being imprisoned for a coup 
before taking power to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

Reid argued:

	80 years ago today, Stalin�s Red Army walked through the gates of 
	Auschwitz and uncovered the true inhumanity and evil of the Nazi 
	regime. Millions of men, women, and children murdered, thousands 
	more starved, beaten, humiliated, and robbed of their dignity. The 
	extermination of Jewish people, Poles, Roma, Soviet prisoners of war, 
	gay people, and others was no secret. It happened in broad daylight. 
	But how did Hitler do it? Well, with the support of millions of 
	ordinary Germans who just wanted Germany to be great again, and 
	business leaders who initially thought they could control them. 
	Plus a cadre of devout political allies willing to do whatever he 
	said for the sake of power. A new piece by The Atlantic lays out 
	how Hitler ended a German democracy and installed a dictatorship 
	with blinding speed and entirely constitutional measures. In that 
	period, Hitler emerged emboldened after being imprisoned for staging 
	a coup. His rage and xenophobia gained followers after the financial 
	ruin of World War I and the Great Depression and helped get him 
	selected as chancellor. Once in power, he moved with shock and awe, 
	imprisoning his liberal opposition, abolishing states rights and 
	imposing bans on left wing newspapers. He fueled German public 
	outrage by blaming European Jews for Germany�s problems. Notably, 
	he and his minister of public enlightenment and propaganda, Joseph 
	Goebbels, launched a massive propaganda campaign that labeled Jews 
	as carriers of deadly diseases and violent terrorists, defeating 
	the Jews of Europe who they viewed as subhuman. It was a question 
	of good conquering evil, which conditioned millions of Germans to 
	celebrate Hitler and turn a blind eye to his brutality. If that 
	sounds vaguely familiar, that�s because it is. Similarities to what 
	happened in Germany and what�s happening now in America are just 
	undeniable. History may not repeat verbatim, but it sure does rhyme. 
	Trump and Steven Miller, his former director of speechwriting, 
	depict non-white immigrants as carriers of deadly diseases who are 
	violent terrorists. Trump was returned to the presidency after 
	staging a coup and has exerted control of media or social media in 
	order to parrot anti-immigrant vitriol and openly hateful anti 
	LGBTQ language, which is what messages did. And then there are the 
	business leaders who pay him, fund him and think they can control 
	him.
