yeah, you have fun selling that distinction to people...again, why die on that hill?

historical comparison period are an awful idea almost all of the time. for every moon landing comparison or discovery of America, there's 10 hitlers.

in fact, if you're making a case...a good one does not require comparisons to something else.

I'd imagine there's a long line of PR professionals that say you should much, much clearer. Especially if the topic relates to Hitler and it is coming from a government spokesperson.


A long line of PR amateurs probably know to just leave Hitler and the Nazis the frick out of pretty much anything you're trying to say.

The spokesman for the president of the United States should know better.

Actually, many historians propose that he was never injured from gas attacks but rather had a nervous breakdown and suffered from "hysterical blindness"


"During his service at headquarters, Hitler pursued his artwork, drawing cartoons and instructions for an army newspaper. During the Battle of the Somme in October 1916, he was wounded in the left thigh when a shell exploded in the dispatch runners' dugout.[63] Hitler spent almost two months in hospital at Beelitz, returning to his regiment on 5 March 1917.[64] On 15 October 1918, he was temporarily blinded in a mustard gas attack and was hospitalised in Pasewalk.[65] While there, Hitler learned of Germany's defeat, and—by his own account—upon receiving this news, he suffered a second bout of blindness.[66]"

I didn't know that. Thanks.

Does "all the best people" mean the worst press secretary ever?

To get to combat you need at least two participants otherwise thats what call murder. Its a legal term.

The sad part of this statement is it's not true. Spicer marchers out there everyday and says exactly what he is told to say.
I would bet every penny I have that no one prepped him to say that.

i'd love to be backstage when he said that. it's like an episode of veep

Hitler did gas his own people...he marched German Jewish person into the same gas chamber as the rest of the European Jewish people.

But hey spicer was wrong about most of his statement why not all of it.

I understood his distinction without that clarification. I imagine everyone did.

I think tucker Carlson said it best "i understand your point. your point is stupid."
