Compared to Trump, sure. But no credit is due.
He was a very good mass murderer, if you feel the need to credit him with something.
Yes, it's clear a person doesn't need to be a good speaker to rile up people who want a free ticket to hate. I'd have agreed Hitler was a good speaker before Trump, but now I think we just assumed that was the case because we couldn't fathom so many people being behind a bad one.
I mean look at the rest. Isn't it one of the baffling things about our times how easy it is to appeal to the masses with obviously idiotic takes. Maybe it's nothing new.
Also I'm sure Hitler didn't write his speeches.
He doesn't even write his tweets, let alone his speeches.
Whether or not Hitler wrote his own speeches, at least he delivered them in a charismatic and competent way.
Trump just ad-libs nonsense.
Hitler actually put a great deal of work and practice time into becoming a good public speaker. Can you imagine Trump putting that kind of effort into anything? Even golf?
The man does like golf though...
He certainly puts in the time. Effort though, that's debatable. Effort in cheating perhaps.
