"The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks."
Pick any two people at random and there will be similarities, for example, say . . . Adolf Hitler and me: we both are of Austrian descent, veterans, and despise communism. Therefore when I started this website I realized there would, of course, be similarities between Trump and Hitler¹ - possibly more than one might think mainly due to their governing styles. I was surprised though when the similarities did not end there.
I've tried to keep this as factual as possible, use the best words, and minimize truthful hyperbole, but this may not be a perfect website. If mistakes were made², then please let me know at TrumpEqualsHitler@gmail.com so I can have them corrected. Either way, reader feedback is welcome.

¹ I do realize that Godwin's Law may have played a role in the creation of this site, though the amount of material available was staggering.
In December 2015, Godwin commented on the Nazi and fascist comparisons being made by several articles about Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, saying: "If you're thoughtful about it and show some real awareness of history, go ahead and refer to Hitler when you talk about Trump, or any other politician." In August 2017, Godwin made similar remarks on social networking websites Facebook and Twitter with respect to the two previous days' Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, endorsing and encouraging comparisons of its alt-right organizers to Nazis.
In June 2018, Godwin wrote an opinion piece in the Los Angeles Times denying the need to update or amend the rule, and rejected the idea that whoever invokes Godwin's Law has lost the argument, and argues that appropriate application of the rule "should function less as a conversation ender and more as a conversation starter."
² The term "mistakes were made" may have been first uttered by U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant³, in his December 5, 1876 report to Congress, acknowledging the scandals engulfing his administration by writing that "mistakes have been made, as all can see and I admit it".
³ U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant was a Republican, a lot of people don't know that.
