I was actually comparing Putin to Hitler as far as their rise to power. You mentioned that Putin came to power through the normal political process (elected). I stated that Hitler's path to power also used the normal political process.
We could debate as to whether Putin is a dictator or not but I was not stating that Trump was a Hitler.

Deezguy,
gotta hand it to ya bro...you do your homework and come to many, many good conclusions from history and the info that is available out there. From this point I can see that Trump wants the job but is seemingly still climbing the hill in a tough race that may not be winnable, with all the factors stacked against him and his campaign, but he is trying and this still remains to be seen. Hillary has a broader base but once she got past Sanders with trickery she sure tries to show a confident front. I can only surmise that for Sanders to give her the support he has since the convention was over that there had to be something in it for him, as many of his supporters were very mad that he went along with it. The lean is heavy to blue if you read and believe all you can see, but there are seventeen more days until election day and who knows what will happen? At present I would not wager. I would like to see Trump have spent more time on positions and issues that would have appealed to more voters and the 'drain the swamp' phrase has a lot of capitol hill folks puckering, and I don't mean with their mouth. When all gets done we all gotta live with it, so I'm not going to worry.
