If you thought Democrats were going to learn that comparing Donald Trump to Hitler was a tactical misfire on their part, think again. Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) dusted off the ol’ playbook in an appearance with Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto.
Not only did Clyburn compare the president-elect to Hitler, he doubled down by suggesting he’s also comparable to Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, and then bragged that he’s been saying Trump is dragging America back to 1930s Germany for years.
Because he’s a student of history … or something.
“The country has gone lurching back to the right. I hope it’s not going as far right as that which happened in Germany in the 1930s,” Clyburn said, clearly suggesting it was. “But you may remember I forewarned way back in 2018 that I saw this coming. I’ve studied history all of my life.”
