But we are not in danger of being rounded up into camps and being executed for our political beliefs. If it comes to a day where we are in danger of that, then I will say this is like the Nazis.

I prefer not to wait. That is exactly what happened in Nazi Germany, people thought it could never happen, it did, and history is repeating itself because good people think it will never happen to them.
