            He’s not. They’re trying to link the fact that Trump held a rally at MSG and Hitler held one there, therefore, Trump is a Nazi. But that’s stupid, because Bill Clinton held a political rally there when he was running too. So did RFK. So did many Democrat president candidates.

              No, they’re not basing it on the fact that trump had an event there, but that it was almost indistinguishable from a Nazi rally by its topics and demeanor.

              They’re saying that trump is a Nazi because of the Nazi slogans he repeats.

              They’re saying it wasn’t the first Nazi rally, because Nazis had one before there.

              I think they’re saying Trump is a nazi because all the fascist rhetoric that keeps coming out of him and his associates. The rally was just… extra spectacle.

              Hitler did not hold one there. The American Bund / Friends of New Germany did, which had little if any real connection to the Nazi Party of Germany besides similar ideals.

                Ah, my bad. The American Nazi party held one there. :)

                  Actually the American Nazy Party never did either. The German American Bund and the Friends of New Germany are not political parties and are more like social clubs. A Moose Lodge for American Nazis.
