To the editor: I hope The Instances is not going to complain in regards to the present, divisive political rhetoric crippling our nation and social material. (“Would Trump cease free and honest elections? Hitler and Mussolini’s paths might be a clue,” Opinion, July 31)
Your newspaper revealed an image of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini with an article suggesting that former President Trump is just like them. It doesn’t get rather more divisive than that.
Each side are responsible of hyperbolic, nasty rhetoric, however this image and implication are a part of the issue in our present political dialogue.

To the editor: Historians Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Benjamin Carter Hett outline the very essence of fascism — the overall disdain for the rule of regulation, which after all flows into elections.
Trump and his fascist acolytes have been making a concerted effort, going again to 2016, to delegitimize electoral methods all through this land of ours. They’re revisiting the methods of fascists from almost a century in the past, Hitler and Mussolini.
These sociopaths have one other factor in widespread: their whole contempt for his or her countrymen.
Hitler is reported to have stated, “What luck for rulers that males don’t assume.” In 2016, Trump stated, “I like the poorly educated.”
Centuries come and go, however the evil of malignant narcissists equivalent to Hitler, Mussolini and Trump will all the time be with us. Voter beware.

To the editor: The image of Hitler and Mussolini with the op-ed article evaluating them to Trump is by far probably the most outrageous instance of yellow journalism I’ve but to see from The Instances.
How can your paper evaluate anybody to the worst mass assassin in historical past?
