I have often compared Adolf Hitler to Donald Trump for good reasons. Trump’s behavior and actions follow the guidebook of Hitler. But I have realized one big difference and that is Basic Personalities.

            Adolph Hitler was an Austrian who saw himself as a German. He was in World War I fighting for Germany and felt betrayed by the elites in German government forcing the Kaiser to surrender. The resulting national punishments further made him more patriotic to Germany and its people. That’s the difference between the two men. One is the people first and the other is Trump first, family second, and people third.        

            Everything Hitler did was to help Germany to regain what he thought was its rightful place in Europe for a thousand years. He was poor and as the Furor he still led a basic life and only put on the “Great One” personality when necessary to promote his goals for Germany. While he “owned” the Nazi party he didn’t participate in enriching himself as his appointees did. Wealth and power were their driving ambitions which allowed some to make life miserable and deadly for many ethnics and cultures.

            We don’t know if Hitler had some conflict with a Jew at some time or was the “Hatred” just the belief of the poor people that all of Germany’s economic and political problems was the Jew’s fault. Since all Europeans are the same color, the Jews facial features, dress, and names were the way of separating them from other Europeans.

            Adolf Hitler truly loved Germany and everything he did was to advance Germany and not himself. Donald Trump was born rich and believes everything he does is to enrich him and increase his already stellar ego. Both fell to the need for greater power to the detriment of their people and country.
