Trump Depicted as Hitler by European News Magazine

President Donald Trump has been depicted as Adolf Hitler on the front cover of the latest issue of a leading European news magazine.

The January 9 edition of Objektiv, a Slovenian weekly magazine-style supplement published by the newspaper Dnevnik, features a portrait image of Trump with crude oil dripping over his top lips from below his nose. The positioning of the oil gives it the appearance of a mustache in the style Hitler was known for.  The cover includes the subhead “American Attack on Venezuela.”

Why It Matters

Trump has faced comparisons to Hitler at several points during his time in office. Critics have often pointed to a parallel between his comments on nationalism, the media and immigration and authoritarian regimes like Nazi Germany.

In a December 2023 reelection event, Trump drew criticism for sayings illegal immigrants were “poisoning the blood of our country.” He later reiterated the claim on Truth Social, posting in all caps that “illegal immigration is poisoning the blood of our nation. They’re coming from prisons, from mental institutions—from all over the world.” Trump’s detractors noted that Hitler used the term “blood poisoning” while discussing immigration in his manifesto Mein Kampf.

Trump has always rejected the comparisons, blaming the media for using that kind of rhetoric.

“They call me a Nazi all the time,” Trump said during an interview with 60 Minutes. “I’m not a Nazi, I’m the opposite. I’m somebody that’s saving our country. But they call me a Nazi.”

  1. Trump is a dangerous arrogant insane demagogue and megalomaniac. He and Putin can share the title ‘New Hitler’.

      • Maybe after we’re finished with Iran, lol…
        In my opinion, Trump is just trying to get more security on Greenland. We will see after their meeting today. Trump did the same thing with NATO, he threatened to leave and suddenly everyone agreed to 5% when many NATO nations were not even putting in the required 2%. Now Trump loves NATO 🙂

        • The United States is invited to have more bases in Greenland if desired, but our territorial integrity is granted by all members of the UN, and any violations will have severe consequences!

        • The 1951 Greenland Defence Agreement allowed the United States to keep its military bases in Greenland, and to establish new bases or “defense areas” if deemed necessary by NATO. The US don’t need to purchase or annex Greenland.

        • That’s complete rubbish, Red. Greenland is a part of NATO and we have bases there and could build more if we wanted to.
          Why are you still supporting this gangster?

    • I wouldn’t worry about the Republican party adding more states, I would worry about the Democrat party adding more. If Puerto Rico, D.C., Canada and Greenland join, the Democrat party will have a permanent majority. 🙂

      • They will have a majority come next November, and for the first time in my life, I would be happy about it.

          • I get my news from multiple sources. You’ve not noticed from my numerous posts on here? Never mind; maga cultists have no capacity to observe even obvious facts.

      • “the Democrat party”

        There’s no such thing as “the Democrat party”. The name of the party is The Democratic Party.

        “the [Democratic] party will have a permanent majority.”

        Don’t threaten me with a good time! 🙂

          • ‘You fool yourself, both parties are democratic.

            Democratic: Relating to or supporting democracy or its principles’

            So, threatening or invading a NATO ally, trying to steal its territory and natural resources, is according to ‘democratic principles’? If so, then all Putin is doing in Ukraine is right. He ‘needs’ {junkie desperation} Ukraine for ruSSia’s security interests, including toilets, coal and gas.
