Trump is to Bush what Hitler was to Kaiser Wilhelm.
Eh, Trump is using a bunch of laws and agencies Bush created where the Nazis had to undo a bunch of the Weimar Republic to take their country to hell. I think it's more like Trump is to Bush what Stalin was to Lenin.
Pretty sure Kaiser Wilhelm was very much not in charge of the Weimar Republic...
Exactly, there was an interruption in government and policies there that the 21st century US didn't have. Trump is a continuation of Bush (e.g. the president who founded ICE) where Hitler was a reaction to the reaction to Wilhelm.
and the DHS.
Yes, different governments (forms of), but still some parallels like militarism or choice of allies and enemies during their respective world wars.
Maybe a better analogy than the German emperor would have been the last president of the Weimar republic before Hitler: Paul von Hindenburg
