It’s Official: With “Vermin,” Trump Is Now Using Straight-up Nazi Talk He’s telling us what he will do to his political enemies if he’s president again. Is anyone listening?

I feel pretty safe in saying that we can now stop giving him the benefit of that particular doubt. His use—twice; once on social media, and then repeated in a speech—of the word “vermin” to describe his political enemies cannot be an accident. That’s an unusual word choice. It’s not a smear that one just grabs out of the air. And it appears in history chiefly in one context, and one context only.

    Like I said some people just can’t perceive irony, especially online. My comment would probably be sitting at -28 instead of +28 if I didn’t.

      Horseshit it’s very clearly a joke, and even if it was at -28, why give a shit? And you weren’t even being sarcastic.

      You ruined your joke.
