Scary

Well, I don't know what the future holds grass. I know I dont like spiders or snakes, but am not afraid of clowns.
In my adult memory I recall the Hitler analogy being used to compare various arguments. Gun control for example. Crowd pyschology perhaps for another. Indeed we are still the same animal we have always been these past 100'000 years. Nothing new there. So yes, it is always possible again.
But this is not Iraq, Rwanda, nor 1930s Europe. To draw similarities of process is one thing. But to compare the North America of today to the actual Holocaust murders is silly.
Your team uses similar Lysenkoism as did Stalin. But I dont see you dehumanizing us deniers just yet. 100+ years who knows?
Just go get your footed pajamas out of the dryer and find your bunny.

Islam translated to english means "submit" . Trumps not interested in submitting.

Kinda good boys keep showing up dead in the back seats of cars.

How fitting that Trump should use Holocaust Remembrance Day to launch his anti-muslim ban.

I guess you guys would be ok with Hitler though - him not being "a leftist" ?

I get really tired of the left making the Hitler comparisons everytime someone disagrees with them. But the cut and paste sounds a lot like the strategy to demonise/discredit anyone who disagrees with global warming, and public prompts/threats for violence against "deniers", but I don't hear anyone on the side of science making such ridiculous comparisons to the witch hunt on those against AGW. This seems to be exclusive territory of the left. Which does a lot for their credibility.

Grassfarmer, why is it when the left disagrees with what a politician is doing they play the Hitler card? Nazi by the way is short for National Socialist German Workers Party. Hitler no doubt created his own definition of socialism with his radical views on racial purity. Anyway back to the topic at hand, Donald Trump. As far as I can see he is implementing the policies that he ran on. I realize that is odd for a politician. Do I agree with all of them, certainly not, I didn't agree with all of Obama's policies either. In 3-4 years it will be obvious whether Trump is right or Trudeau!

Weber says Trump the wild card
The maverick president will be a market mover, like it or not

Commodity analyst Larry Weber says he’s changed his morning routine recently.

In the years he’s been in the business of analyzing grain markets, the first thing he always checked every morning was the news wires, looking for world events that could make a difference in markets.

“Now I’m checking Twitter to see what Donald Trump might have tweeted last night,” Weber told farmers at Ag Days during his semi-annual market outlook presentation at the event.

“I check it because that’s what’s moving markets. Canola is up $4 today because of what he said last night. Friday (Jan. 20, Inauguration Day) the world is going to change, and I’m scared,” Weber said. “In all my time, I have never been so fearful of an incoming president.”
Chaos-in-chief

Weber said he’s most concerned about what appears to be Trump’s chaotic approach to governance and the presidency. While shooting from the hip might be fine for most, the role of the U.S. president is frequently to be above the fray, the calm voice of reason, and the one keeping diplomatic channels open.

“It’s not really what he might do that concerns me, so much as the conventions that he won’t follow,” Weber told the crowd. “He’s like a 13-year-old in the schoolyard.”

For financial and commodity markets, that’s likely to mean politically related volatility, and a lot of it, as Trump bullies and blusters, Weber said.

Much of that volatility is going to be related to currency fluctuation, Weber said, which then spills out into prices on markets throughout the world. Unlike other situations where chaos can produce opportunity, in this case finding those chances might be a bit harder, since Trump doesn’t appear to like sticking to script or being consistent.
Bean bonanza

Turning to grain markets proper, Weber said he expects to see soybeans acreage continue to grow as the crop continues to burst out of the Red River Valley and westward on the Prairies.

“We’re even seeing it in Saskatchewan now, especially south of the No. 1 highway, where it’s showing up in rotations,” Weber said.

Weber said it’s likely the Prairies will see another big bump in soybean production as growers become more comfortable with the crop, but added that any sense the acreage was coming straight off the top of canola isn’t supported by the numbers.

“Canola has actually been quite stable, and so has wheat,” Weber said. “It’s also not coming from summerfallow, so the question is, ‘where is it coming from?’ and the answer seems to be that it’s coming a little bit from a lot of places.”

For example, Weber said oat production in Manitoba likely contributed about 100,000 acres or so to bean production, and that was the biggest effect he could see in his analysis.
Canola too

Weber also said he’s looking for big canola acres this spring, with farmers pencilling out their budgets for the spring now. In fact he’s expecting to see the return of tight canola rotations, with economics beating out agronomics yet again.

“Farmers are telling me, ‘I’m going to grow it because it’s the only thing I’m going to make money at,’” Weber said.

In fact, Weber said this trend has caused him to rethink his long-held view that the crop would always have a hard acreage ceiling because of agronomic limitations, preventing it from reaching the most optimistic future estimates of 22 million or 23 million acres in Western Canada.

“I’ve thrown that out the window,” Weber said. “There was a huge shift to canola when I did my annual 100-farmer survey.”

If Trump is Hitler, than Trudeau is most definitely Chamberlain - dumb as a post and spineless.

Thinking maybe I should order a ***** hat to send to Trudeau - but he will likely advocate for it to be the new national symbol.

From grassy's original post this is Fake News:
"The State Department’s entire senior administrative team resigned - the people with the knowledge and experience in security, management, administrative and consular positions."
(This is a standard procedure to switch out the entire senior administrative team.....so in other words Obama's group is moving on.)

Another odd fact is Obama/Clinton banned Iraq refugees in 2011 for 6 months....did the left wing media ever raise a concern?

Glad to see Weber is a voice of reason on Trump.

I know may of you are cheering Trump on for various reasons but in reality you should be concerned about a President who acts impulsively and without rational reasons.

Banning citizens from a select group of Muslim countries makes no sense. Why is Saudia Arabia not on the list? Didn't all the 911 terrorists come from Saudia Arabia?

Not to mention freedom of religion is protected under the US constitution.

Lets just piss off more extremists and give them more reasons to hate the US and really not achieve any more security.

And making Mexicans pay for a wall? The Whitehouse backed away when Trump suggested a 20% tax on Mexican imports which would in effect make Americans pay for the wall. Oh I didn't think of that!!! LOL

The pattern is well established Trump doesn't listen to the CIA or intelligence agencies, he fears the press and blames everything on someone else in the new world of "alternative facts".

ChuckChuck. The reason is because Trump has business ties and investments with Saudi Arabia, The Emirates and Egypt.
