"Don't believe a word I say - unless I can logically and factually back it up. And the same goes for anyone with a message, any message from any messenger. It's either true and can be established, or it's hyperbole and rabble-rousing by clown-type imbeciles, costume and all, with nothing else to say but "trust me", I know what's best for you, your children and everyone that I/we deem a Torah-true Jew."

Well if the media reports it, it’s gotta be true. https://nypost.com/2024/11/01/opinion/media-twists-trumps-words-about-liz-cheney-and-his-point/
Whose מספרם?

Sounds like Christopher Hitchens’ perspective.
First, comparing Trump to Hitler demeans you. It's disgusting so please don't do it again.
Second, I don't know what poll you saw but the aggregate has Trump up 0.1% in the popular vote, and leading in the swing states except for Wisconsin and Michigan.
There are two wildcard here
1) A well known phenomenon that Trump supporters are afraid to admit their intentions to pollsters because they are afraid the pollsters will yell at them. So there's more Trump voters out there than we account for
2) The well known trick of the Democrats to bring in busloads of migrants to swing districts to vote.
Trump: Campaigned as an outsider to the political establishment, positioning himself as a voice for disenfranchised, working-class Americans. He often attacked "elites" and the "deep state," promising to fight for "forgotten" Americans.
Hitler: Rose to power by exploiting resentment among Germans after WWI, focusing on national pride and directing anger towards the Treaty of Versailles, which he claimed had betrayed the nation. He positioned himself as a defender of "ordinary" Germans against alleged enemies within and outside the country.
2. Scapegoating and Rhetoric
Trump: Frequently used divisive language, pointing to groups like immigrants, media, and political opponents as causes of America’s problems. His rhetoric often emphasized "us vs. them" dynamics, portraying himself as fighting for his supporters against various "enemies."
Hitler: Created a nationalistic, "us vs. them" mindset, with Jews, communists, and other minority groups demonized as the cause of Germany’s problems. Hitler’s propaganda portrayed these groups as threats to the unity and purity of Germany.
3. Use of Media
Trump: Leveraged modern media, especially Twitter, to connect directly with his supporters and bypass traditional news outlets. His style was often provocative, gaining massive attention by pushing against political norms.
Hitler: Used propaganda and media extensively, with the help of Joseph Goebbels, to control information and shape public opinion. Rallies, speeches, and media played critical roles in rallying people behind his ideas and demonizing opposition.
4. Nationalism and Patriotism
Trump: Emphasized "America First," promoting policies he argued would make the U.S. stronger economically and militarily. His rallies frequently included nationalistic slogans, emphasizing pride in American values.
Hitler: Centered his ideology around extreme German nationalism, advocating for the superiority of the "Aryan" race and pushing for territorial expansion to unify German-speaking populations.
5. Cult of Personality
Trump: Many of his followers displayed strong personal loyalty to him, often placing him at the center of their political identity. His image as a tough, unfiltered leader resonated with supporters who saw him as representing their values.
Hitler: Established a powerful cult of personality, where he was viewed as the savior of Germany. His supporters were expected to demonstrate loyalty to him personally, and he became synonymous with the Nazi state itself.
6. Contempt for Democratic Norms
Trump: Often criticized the judicial system, Congress, and electoral processes, suggesting they were corrupt or biased. Some of his actions, especially following the 2020 election, were seen as undermining democratic institutions.
Hitler: Once in power, he systematically dismantled democratic institutions, consolidating control over the government. The Nazi regime sought to eliminate opposition and eliminate checks on his power entirely.
Your “well known trick” is a well know myth.

Right, because it's the right that's running "From River To Sea" protests in major cities, the right that's indoctrinating university students to hate Israel, the right that controls the teacher unions that are putting Israel hate into curriculums.
