GOP lawmaker quotes Hitler’s 'Mein Kampf' to slam Democrats
‘A “big lie” is a political propaganda technique made famous by Germany’s National Socialist German Workers Party. ... For more than two years, socialist Democrats and their fake news media allies — CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, Washington Post and countless others — have perpetrated the biggest political lie, con, scam and fraud in American history.’ Rep.
Specifically, Brooks quoted the 10th chapter of the Hitler book, which was banned in Germany until 2015: "In the big lie, there is always a certain force of credibility because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily,” he said. The Washington Post pointed out Brooks ultimately inverted his analogy, making Democrats the equivalent of German and Austrian Jews.
Gohmert, in a House Judiciary Committee discussion about compelling the Justice Department to turn over information from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe as to whether the Trump White House obstructed justice, expressed a fear that an unshackled Justice Department in the hands of authoritarian — “it won’t be Trump,” he averred — could pave the way for “another socialist like Hitler to come along.
Allowing that Gohmert’s remark “might have been a little error on your part,” Cohen elaborated that it was “as a Jewish person” that he took offense to Gohmert’s equating of the horrors of Nazism with an economy-organizing principle.
