He’s more of a Gaddafi, but you won’t like that much either.
Countries that go for these types of guys never end up doing well, but the fans never seem to notice.

Trump is a Gaddafi? Trump wants to nationalize the main sources of wealth of the country, to redirect the profits towards the majority of the population, towards education and healthcare and infrastructure? Trump is a weird form of socialist who believes in something analogous in America to the Pana-Africanism and Pan-Arabism that Gaddafi promoted?
What the hell is that comparison?

They’re both conniving, self-serving authoritarian dummies. It’s true that Gaddafi had some virtues and Donny doesn’t seem to have any.

Gaddafi actively turned his country from a backwards, exploited, standard north-african country, into the country in Africa with the highest living standards… I’m sorry but you can’t compare him with Trump.

no, he himself is doing that.

Please tell me exact things he has done that have been like hitler? I need direct examples of things he has actually done directly.

i don’t have time for bad faith bullshit but here’s a list that doesn’t even get into his hitler-like tendencies but noting only direct invocations of hitler: forward.com/…/donald-trump-hitler-nazi-references…

Holy conspiracy theory dude… “In a picture trump tweeted, if you turn it sideways and raise the light levels you will see a ghost image of hitler in the picture behind his head!”
