Thomas Lifson: Are Trump-haters giving up on Hitler comparisons?
. . . "After Republican Flake opened the door to murderous dictator comparisons, Paul Begala, the CNN commentator and former top aide and propagandist for Bill Clinton (and a veteran impeachment-fighter) jumped in, not only seconding the Stalin comparison, but adding more dictators, none of whom were named Hitler, or even Schicklgruber.
"Alex Griswold reports in the Free Beacon:
. . ."When you compare our president, my president, to Joseph Stalin, to Rodrigo Duterte, the dictator in the Philippines, to Bashar Assad, the dictator in Syria, that's extraordinary," Begala said."Do you think that's a fair comparison?" host Brianna Keilar asked.
J. Marsolo: Flake out-McCains McCain by comparing President Trump to Stalin "I thought California was bad by electing Moonbeam, Feinstein, Pelosi, and Boxer, and by giving Hillary a five-million-plus-vote margin so she could babble that she won the popular vote. But whereas California gave us quantity, Arizona has given us "quality" in Jeff Flake, who has outdone even John McCain.
"McCain never misses an opportunity to stick a fellow Republican, starting with Ronald Reagan and now President Trump. McCain voted against the George W. Bush tax cuts and famously gave a thumbs-down to Trump's efforts to repeal Obamacare.
"McCain is a tough act to follow, but Jeff Flake is a worthy successor.
"Flake attacked President Trump by comparing him to Joseph Stalin, dictator of the Evil Empire, because President Trump has criticized the press in language not approved by Flake.
"Flake must believe that President Trump is the first American politician, or first American, to criticize the press . . ."
