text: So Trump and Cruz are capitalizing on fear. I'm sure Obama, Clinton, and Sanders have never done that.
  
  What is Patty doing when she says that Trump “raves like a wild drunk …” and compares his rants to those of Hitler? Is she perhaps capitalizing on our fear of encountering wild drunks and our fear of genocide?
  
  With more than a month until our primarly and then several months to the general election, dozens of letters and online comments have equated Trump to Hitler. Certainly dozens more are still to come. I would suggest that the first measure of a lack of intelligence is to fall back on that tired comparison to try to discredit Trump. There are certainly other evidence-backed ways to try to discredit him and his record, but the feeble-minded just want to scream Hitler.
