Another telling comparison with the rallies of a dictator

At the rally in Nevada yesterday, where Trump was rushed off the stage, Austyn Crites, the man who held up the anti-Trump sign said he felt relieved when police arrived and placed him in handcuffs, but said officers had to fend off Trump supporters who continued to attack him. “As I was taken from the room, people are just looking at me like I’m a demon,” he said.

Isn't that exactly how people, who opposed Adolf Hitler, felt in the days before he came to power.

After his election it was too late.
