A gay Holocaust survivor has likened former President Donald Trump’s authoritarian tendencies and propaganda tactics to former Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
With the help of her children and grandchildren, the 88-year-old woman known as Grandma Ellie was able to familiarize herself with TikTok and begin posting her opinions on the upcoming US presidential election.
“I have lived for a long time and seen many crises, but there has never been a crisis like this in our country,” she said in her first interview. video. “As far as I can see, there’s really only one question to answer when deciding who you want as your next president: Do you want to continue democracy, civil liberties, and free elections, or do you want to maintain the state system?” In his own words, “a would-be dictator,” pursuing each of our freedoms, dismantling them, and taking revenge on everyone who opposes him. Who is it? ”

“We are at a crossroads. It’s up to you to decide,” she added.
Ellie has since Post 6 other videos In her account, she made the case that Donald Trump is Adolf Hilter’s ideological successor. She claimed that he used the same tactics as Nazi dictators in his pursuit of power and had the same disregard for democracy and fundamental human rights and values.
Each of her videos deals with a different theme, including President Trump’s tendency to lie and his refusal to admit wrongdoing. The threat the Trump administration poses to reproductive rights. The January 6th Capitol riot and America’s history of violence. And they incite fear and hatred in order to gain power.
She also talks about the Holocaust, specifically Auschwitz, and how President Trump’s attempts to demonize entire populations resonate with Hitler’s demonization of minorities and so-called “undesirables.” I’m publishing two separate videos.
“This may not be an accurate story of the past, but unless we are smarter and more aware, the patterns are often the same and will repeat,” she said of the first of Auschwitz. said in the video. “Yes, folks, the Holocaust did exist, and I was one of the lucky ones who was able to escape in 1938 when Hitler annexed Austria.”

In the second Auschwitz video, she says, “With neo-Nazis and white supremacists and the ultra-Christian right supporting Trump, the stage is now set for a repeat of these atrocities. It could happen… The German people didn’t want to believe what Hitler was capable of. And now we know better. Vote for our democracy.”
