On Monday night’s The ReidOut on MSNBC, deranged MSNBC lib and turncoat former Republican Steve Schmidt melted down over former President and current GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump and compared him to Adolf Hitler. Schmidt seemed to take particular issue with Trump’s promise to have President Joe Biden’s mess cleaned up within six months. This set Schmidt off and he said this made Trump akin to Hitler because “it's how long it took Adolph Hitler to take Weimar Germany to a complete and total dictatorship.”
"The people who are trying to tear down democracy in the country keep telling the rest of the country what it is they plan to do to such a degree that they have announced their plans six months into 2025 to have taken apart the whole of the federal government," Schmidt cried.
Apparently, presidential candidates are only allowed to measure success in 100 days since the socialist Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt set that tradition. If you say you only need six months to fix the country, that makes you Hitler according to Schmidt.
"Now, since FDR's time in office, the legislative metric in the United States has been 100 days, not six months. This is a racist code whistle to every white supremacist in the country because it's how long it took Adolph Hitler to take Weimar Germany to a complete and total dictatorship that included, by the way, the military swearing an oath of allegiance not to the nation but to the fuhrer," Schmidt slimed.
Without any evidence, Schmidt claimed "what Donald Trump is signaling to the officer core of the American military, you get in line behind me, the leader, not the idea, not the constitution or I'm coming for you, too. This is an epically dangerous moment."

MSNBC’s The ReidOut
9/25/2023
7:08:52 p.m. EasternSTEVE SCHMIDT: I think there's no question that the country and the media is numb to it. The threshold in this moment is very simple. Everything that Donald Trump says should be taken literally and seriously. What he did today was threaten the employees, the journalists at NBC News. What he said more broadly is he's going to shut down the free media in the United States. What he announced today as a candidate for president in 2023 is he's coming after the American media. He's coming after his political opponents. Why is he running for president? He's running for retribution. Retribution, according to Donald Trump, is a philosophy of avenging anybody who is against him. So we are on the edge of an abyss in this country, and it seems that there is a paralysis, a numbness, a total disregard for the clear and present threat. There is something extraordinary happening.
The people who are trying to tear down democracy in the country keep telling the rest of the country what it is they plan to do to such a degree that they have announced their plans six months into 2025 to have taken apart the whole of the federal government. Now, since FDR's time in office, the legislative metric in the United States has been 100 days, not six months. This is a racist code whistle to every white supremacist in the country because it's how long it took Adolph Hitler to take Weimar Germany to a complete and total dictatorship that included, by the way, the military swearing an oath of allegiance not to the nation but to the fuhrer.
And the military was the institution amongst many in Germany that were the last holdouts to this. But once he was in power, they were the first to submit. And what Donald Trump is signaling to the officer core of the American military, you get in line behind me, the leader, not the idea, not the constitution or I'm coming for you, too. This is an epically dangerous moment.
