Who is ready for the Unified Reich?

Trump shares video suggesting his victory will bring 'unified Reich'

The former president's campaign said the video featuring hypothetical newspaper headlines was "reposted by a staffer" to his Truth Social account while Trump was in court on Monday.

Former President Donald Trump's account shared a video on social media Monday that included reference to a "unified Reich" among possible developments if he were to win re-election in November, drawing criticism from the Biden campaign.

Trump's account posted a 30-second video to his Truth Social platform on Monday afternoon which asks "what happens after Donald Trump wins?" and "what's next for America?"

The background is made up of hypothetical newspaper front pages with headlines including "BORDER IS CLOSED 15 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS DEPORTED" and "ECONOMY BOOMS."

Twice in the clip, slightly blurred text appears beneath the headlines that reads: "Industrial strength significantly increased ... driven by the creation of a unified Reich."

"Reich," meaning realm, kingdom or empire, is often considered to be a reference to the Third Reich regime of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler that emerged in 1930s Germany and its inclusion in the video was condemned by Democrats.

"America, stop scrolling and pay attention. Donald Trump is not playing games; he is telling America exactly what he intends to do if he regains power: rule as a dictator over a 'unified reich,'" James Singer, spokesman for President Joe Biden's re-election campaign, said in a statement Monday night.

"Parroting 'Mein Kampf' while you warn of a bloodbath if you lose is the type of unhinged behavior you get from a guy who knows that democracy continues to reject his extreme vision of chaos, division, and violence," Singer said.

Trumps campaign dismissed the allegation and said the former president who is on trial in New York was not aware the word appeared in the video.

This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a staffer who clearly did not see the word, while the President was in court," Karoline Leavitt, Trump campaign spokeswoman, said in a statement.

"The real extremist is Joe Biden who has turned his back on Israel and the Jewish people by bowing down to radical anti-semites and terrorist sympathizers in his party like Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez," she added.

While Hitler did discuss the creation of an enlarged German empire in Mein Kampf, the text from the video shared on Truth Social appears to be taken from the Wikipedia page for World War I.

The site reads: German industrial strength and production had significantly increased after 1871, driven by the creation of a unified Reich.

The unification of Germany in 1871 brought together an assortment of German-speaking kingdoms and duchies that were left independent following the collapse of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806.

Another sentence in the video reads: "First World War (often abbreviated as WW1 or WWI) Causes of World War I."

Trump has used 20th-century German historical comparisons to attack his opponents: earlier this month he compared the Biden administration to the "Gestapo, " the secret police force of Nazi Germany.

Late last year Trump said immigrants were "poisoning the blood" of America, echoing parts of Mein Kampf, but he said he was unaware Hitler had used similar language and denied the comments were racist.

So a random staffer running his twitter reposted a video they found and didn't pay attention to, and this is the smoking gun? The man is full of bullshit and lies, can we please focus on his actual issues instead of made up shit? There's plenty to go around.

Dont call them Nazis, though, thats bad.

I wonder if it was the same staffer who made DeSantis release the same statement right before firing the guy as part of a campaign layoff (so-called, because he couldn't be seen to fire a nazi from his staff when nazis in his state support him as a voting bloc).

What're the odds that two different republican campaigns would end up with multiple nazis making crafted nazi messages, after all.

Had to be a slip up where they just rehired the wrong guy. There can't be that many (a number greater than zero) nazis in the republican party. No American would ever tolerate that.

lmao they really are living in a different reality

Didn't Donnie also have that video where someone yells "white power" in it and they had to release pretty much the same stock response of "we didn't make it, someone else did!"

I'm going with every word out of his mouth is a lie and he surrounds himself with incompetency but people still choose to take everything he says at face value or assume the worst interpretation because it fits their worldview. He has said and done enough actual awful things that we shouldn't be focusing on this boy who cried wolf nazi stuff. Let's focus on him actually being a corrupt asshole who will sell his vote for cash. He doesn't have any political opinions which makes him more dangerous than if he had an actual ideology. He will literally agree with anyone who pays him or pats him on the head. That's how he has corrupted the republican party into the modern party of hucksters, frauds, and snake oil salesmen.

The glaring problem now is that even if a GOP voter isn't a Nazi, but they still vote for the GOP, they are complicit.

I think there should be some level of accountability. Going back to the very fine people statement, there has always been a questionable amount of tolerance within his camp when it comes to this kind of stuff.

Even if it was some staffer, Trumps campaign could come out and say This was not our intended message, and we are dealing with it internally. That is my main issue with it. And I think it is fair to take issue with it.

we shouldn't be focusing on this boy who cried wolf nazi stuff.

Oh there certainly should be accountability but that's obviously never been trumps strength. He never gets in trouble for the stuff he actually does so he continues to not give a shit what anyone says about him.

It's the same reason he never denounces any of the extremists that support him. He's an egomaniac with no political opinions. As long as they like him and no one is forcing him to speak against them, they're cool in his book.

Question: How many "coincidental" usage of Nazi imagery, sayings, thoughts and support does he need to do before you think it's no longer a coincidence?

Look, at the end of the day you have to choose if you think Trump is a bumbling dumbfuck or an insidious nazi who is hiding easter eggs for people to find. You can't have it both ways. I have made my choice.

My dude, CPAC's stage one year was literally in the shape of the Odal rune. These people know exactly what they are doing and all you are doing is running interference for them.
