    His comments are still idiotic but what he’s saying is that in Germany some people where helping Jews, not that nazis treated them with “love” (at least in the fragment I’ve seen).

      “People would try and help people that were in unbelievable distress,” the president went on, suggesting that the Nazis were known for their generosity.

      Sounds like he’s talking about Germans in general to me, while the article immediately says that he must mean Nazis.

      There’s a lot of dumb shit Trump says. I don’t think this is one of those things (his comparison between the holocaust and the hostages is still weird, but that’s typical “par for the course”).

        Yep, exactly that. Really no need to make up stupid shit he says. There’s enough of real stupid shit he actually says.
