The way people in the hate trump media are speaking, you would think Putin is our enemy and that he is some sort of super vilian. Based on some comments, you would think Russia is hiding in the bushes waiting to launch nuclear weapons against the U.S.

I do not believe Putin is even comparable to Hitler. He's not as powerful and much easier to control.

What are your thoughts?

Putin is our enemy. Where the **** have you been?

Or, are you Trump's "*** holster"?
 
Putin has no plans for world domination. He's just doing whatever is in the best interest for Russia.
 
Why do we need a new Hitler? I think, as far as villains go, the old Hitler fit the bill perfectly. In the world of evil, Putin's gonna have to make his own name. No stealing Hitler's.

It took the combined armies of the entire British Empire, the USA, the Free French, the Russian Army & the Russian winter to defeat
Germany. I'd say that compared to the armies of that period it has to be considered among "the finest army that ever marched".
And the top brass were top notch, name 3 allied generals who could compare favorably to Mannstein, Guderian & Rommel.
Hitler was vain enough to over rule them from time to time and that didn't help.

Wow. Except for the fact, of course, that that wasn't actually happening and Putin turned Russia into a mafia state, spot on.

Whew.
 
Putin has been leader of the world since some time around November. He is not Hitler but unfortunately is running things at this point. An emasculated American right are passive in challenging him and many including the president are actually part of his harem.

Putin is not a Hitler nor is he a Stalin, nor is he benign or a friend of the US.

Putin is a KGB Colonel and an authoritarian leader with a highly nationalistic ideology who seeks to return Russia to the glory days of the Soviet Union. Putin has Russian journalists and opposition activists murdered (hundreds since 2000) and has quashed all independent media in Russia. His political party - United Russia - holds a super-majority in the Duma which renders it a rubber stamp legislature. His military is occupying Crimea, and waging active warfare in eastern Ukraine (10,000+ dead). Russian troops brought a BUK missile launcher into Ukraine and downed Malaysian Flight MH17 killing all 298 aboard. His military commits numerous war crimes in Syria, bombing civilian sectors of cities, bombing hospitals and clinics, and using banned incendiary and cluster munitions. Putin is the greatest enemy of the United States and has upped the ante to hybrid warfare attacks on our electoral system. The Russians are also currently mapping our power nodes ... the critical step up/down electric transformer stations, and nuclear facilities.

That is my opinion as well. Trump & Putin could never work together because both people are for their country first. If it benefits both fine but neither is going to give in to the other. When 2 people are fighting for the best deal for their countries it is not likely they will ever come to an agreement. Someone has to lose for the other to win.

I don't want to see that madwoman on my screen. She is the equivalant of the David Duke of the left.

The problem for your claim is that we have the internet now and can learn for ourselves.

{His military is occupying Crimea, and waging active warfare in eastern Ukraine (10,000+ dead).}

In the last legitimate election (Carter was a watchdog there)
with all regions participating the Eastern provinces voted accordingly:

For Yanukovich, the Russian leading candidate
Crimea 78.24%
Donetsk region 90.44%
Luhansk region 88.96%

After the coup it's no wonder Crimea upped it's percentages to the 90's thus immitating
the pluraity of Donetsk & Luhansk the 2 breakaway provinces. By the way there are other
eastern regions with strong Russian ties maybe they eventually will rise up against the Kiev Junta
Kharkiv region 71.35%
Zaporizhzhia region 71.50%
Odesa region 74.14%
Mykolaiv region 71.53%

Ukraine is as split as the US was in 1861, Russia & Putin didn't influence
the last legit election in Ukraine nor the Crimean referendum after the disastrous
for Ukraine Kiev Maidan.

The illegal coup deposing Yanukovich alienated the people of Donetsk and Lugansk
& Crimea who, having a president THEY voted for, they rather thought Ukraine had a democracy already.

Most of the provinces east of the Dniper wanted no part of the Coup. Odessa voted 2 to 1 for
Yanokovich & a Russian leaning Ukraine. In Odessa the new Kiev government showed its true colors.
Some 1,000 Ukrainian rightists, led by the notorious Right Sector, surrounded, stormed, and burned
the House of Trade Unions in Odessa , killing 39 pro-Russia demonstrators in the building.

Russia led by Putin decided that they didn't want a repeat of this brutality in other Russian speaking
Eastern Provinces and took action.

Gee I wonder which European nation was the major sponsor of global collectivism during WWII. Hmm.

While its true that Hitler did start a war with the biggest collectivist state in the world, it certainly was not because the USSR was collectivist or globalist.
 
To answer the OP, no Putin is not like Hitler.
 
Putin is a hoodlum put in place by a bunch of thieves to protect them from prison for the millions/billions of dollars they bilked.

That was exactly why. Who was more virulently anti-Communism than Hitler in the era?

There were a lot of reasons the Nazis went to war with the Soviets, and only part of was because of Communism. There was a desire of "living space", a general contempt of the Slavic people, and the insistence of the connection between Jewishness and Bolshevism that justified a war against them.

There's also the fact that Nazis were to an extent, collectivist as well, or at least insisted to be. Their actual stances were a bit more precluded.

You do realize the Nazi's were national socialists right?

Nazism is a nationalist ideology. Communism is a globalist ideology.
