ToW #10: Trump is a Nazi?

     This political ad by John Cole, a political cartoonist for the New York Times, compares Donald Trump and his supporters to Hitler and the Third Reich. It is made for those against Trump, as it exaggerates his flaws in his campaign and ideology. Other means are used to get a chuckle out of the reader and exaggerate the similarities, such as the man in a militant uniform who is singing a pro- GoP chant, except that S's in it are replaced by Sch's, imitating German spellings of words, further exaggerating the similarities. This alongside the salute given by Trump, and the Muslim man who is wearing an Islamic star and moon, take the exaggeration to ridiculous levels.

     However, the ad fulfills it's purpose, because it rallies anti-Trump support in a humorous way through exaggeration of comparison to a past reign that had terrible repercussions.
