Trump is on tape as glorifying violence. Riot laws apply here too. Protests are not incitements. His message is designed to be provocative, but when people respond by protesting, as is their right, he does nothing but whine. ---

Any of those things punishable? By violence? You don’t see the irony in Trump’s appeal to the anti politically correct? You don’t see him invoking anger from the stage? ---

I don’t see it. And the bit about disrupting the peace? Make up your mind. Is this a public or a private event. As quoted it applies to _public_ inconveniences not private ones. If public then trump is guilty by that vague definition. Really these are very silly claims. ---

> [@Hank\_Beecher](#): > > Sure, from a certain perspective, it was. And from others it was hyperbolic, inflammatory, insulting, and rude. :dubious: Godwinizing Trump is **not** hyperbolic. Of course he is not Literally Hitler, that would be unfairly disrespectful to Hitler, who at least had an imagination, and some small measure of artistic talent that you won’t find expressed in any Trump Tower, but he does fairly bear comparison, and not any comparison favorable to Trump. ---

Complaining about comparing Trump to Hitler in a thread where the OP does that to Bernie Sanders is incredibly ironic. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sanderss-supporters-brownshirts-stop-trump-rally-in-chicago/748710.md?page=28)
