Trump's night at the Garden: Racist campaign rally adopts language of fascism and violence
- Future 1st Lt. Elon Musk says Trump's economic plans could cause 'temporary hardship' [but the austerity will be good for American weaklings who should live Spartan lives like Musky, Sieg heil!]
- Trump's purge worked: Supreme Court's conservative justices leave in place Virginia's purge of voter registrations [that will help minority Republicans win with fewer majority Democrats able to vote]
- Now for his next purge: Trump allies draw up plans targeting legal immigration
Curry attended the rally and also directed the short film A Night at the Garden, about the 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden. He notes, "The demagogues in 1939 used the same tactics that we see today."
The 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden
- Was Hitler-supporting Prescott S. Bush, the forebear of CIA Chief George H. Bush and US Pres. George W. Bush (puppet of fellow war criminal VP Dick Cheney) holding a swastika, a portrait of the Fuhrer, or a white supremacy banner?
Prior to the American involvement in Hitler's war, there was an American group that supported Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party.
Known as the German American Bund, they had thousands of racist members in the USA. There were numerous white supremacist groups like this around the world outside of Germany.
However, what is the story of their 1939 rally in the most famous entertainment venue in the world (site of Led Zeppelin's greatest concert when the British invaded the US)?
