Neo-nazis think it is too early to compare Trump to Hitler

'He should prove himself first'

November 22nd, 2016 by Rudolf Julius and Laura van der Haar

The rise of Donald Trump is often compared to Adolf Hitler's in the early 1930s. Many people think that is a disgrace, among whom a number of neo-nazis. They think Trump should prove himself first.

"It is much too early to mention Trump in the same breath as the Führer", Rikkert Koolman of the NVU* says. "He should show something first in stead of just shout slogans. It's all empty retoric that sets expectations far too high. A few alt-righters bringing the nazi salute means nothing by itself."

Other neo-nazis are prepared to give Trump a fair chance. "By comparing him to Hitler, the left is trying to make him seem a disappointment later on", Bram Wansink says. "That's just a transparent trick. We will give him time to turn his plans into reality. I believe in him."

It is not the first time a politician is compared to Hitler, Wansink acknowledges. "Just think of that weakling Duterte. I have a good feeling about Trump, but I will have to see him deport a Muslim first."

* The NVU is a Dutch neo-nazi party
