On the 21st of September, Democracy Now hosted a conversation with Michael Moore, a controversial filmmaker, to talk about Trump’s U.S -Mexico border proposal and other issues. Moore made a point to compare the rise of Donald Trump with that of Hitler in Germany, a comparison that raised many eyebrows. According to the video description:

In his new documentary “Fahrenheit 11/9,” filmmaker Michael Moore interviews the last surviving Nuremberg prosecutor, Ben Ferencz, who describes President Trump’s policy of family separations at the U.S.-Mexico border and the large-scale detention of immigrant children as a “crime against humanity.” Moore also looks at the rise of Hitler in Nazi Germany and compares it to the rise of Trump in the United States.
