Nothing surprising given how terrible Trump is, but nonetheless.
He also was present at a Ku Klux Klan demonstration in 1927.

It’s a toothbrush mustache, and more than one historical person wore them, Charlie Chaplin who Hitler likely copied was one of them.
The toothbrush mustache became popular because it was the only kind that would fit under the gas mask. I believe that’s why Hitler had one, he was a corporal in WWI (and was temporarily blinded by a gas attack).
Oliver Hardy (from the Laurel and Hardy series) also wore one. Without it he looked like a giant baby.
Yeah. That’s all true. But would you say that Micheal Jordan briefly had a Charlie Chaplin mustache? Or would you say Micheal Jordan briefly had a hitler mustache?
The difference is that one of them wore it before it got labeled as a Hitler moustache and the other did it after
A toothbrush mustache, anything else shows prejudice.
No Hitler did not likely copy Chaplin, he much more likely kept the “toothbrush” from his WWI army days, when it was common because it fit under a gas mask.
He was known to be a Charlie Chaplin fan, there’s not proof to either side. It’s not like we can ask him or he let us know for sure. We can speculate though.
And that’s what social media is all about - opinions in a vacuum based on minimal information and defended as if it were a matter of life and death.
In my original comment I never stated it as a fact, I said likely, since we can’t know for sure.
And are you trying to mock me for just defending my point when you attacked it? That’s… quite the interesting tactic.
