Republican Sen. Jeff Flake’s speech on the Senate floor in which he compared President Trump to Joseph Stalin caused plenty of eye rolling and head shaking (on both sides of the aisle). However, MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell was among those helping push the comparison:
INSANE: Lawrence O'Donnell hears more hammering after unhinged slam on John Kelly https://t.co/uvuAb3tBTR

On Fox News just now John Kelly sided with Stalin & Trump against @JeffFlake
The disgrace of John Kelly continues.

When you think about that, it’s utterly ridiculous:
"Trump is just like Stalin" they said, which they wouldn't be able to say if Trump were like Stalin.

It’s the comparison that immediately discredits itself!
This is way beyond a liberal’s comprehension ? capabilities
