Jim was comparing Trump's tactics with the press to Hitlers, implying he was using the same tactics for the same reasons. I am sure Jim is able to defend his own posts without you trying to save him via nitpicking what 1:1 means.

JimMy brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

You do not listen, nor do you appear capable of understanding.

So you are still blaming him for statements you made up yourself.
As you correctly note you can mimic an accents which is different from having the exact same strategy and doing the exact same thing.
And I am sure you are able to see similarities between "Lugenpresse" and "fake news" without concluding everything else is similar.
But it appers you prefer the straw man.That's what

If Jim's point was that Trump was NOT using the same tactics as Hitler, then this whole thread was a waste of time, Chuck. Your defense of Jim pretty much is saying exactly that. That he didn't mean that Trump was using the same tactics as Hitler.
