Democrats are competing to see who can have the most hysterical reaction to former President Donald Trump's political rally on Sunday at Madison Square Garden.

From Mediaite, "Eric Swalwell Pushes Loony Claim Trump's MSG Rally Was Worse Than Hitler":

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) compared the Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden in 1939 favorably to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's event there on Sunday.

[...] Reacting to a clip of Hinchcliffe's remarks on X, Swalwell deemed them enough to render the event more condemnable than even the 1939 [German American Bund] rally.

"Trump's MAGA Square Garden rally is making Hitler's rally there look like a basket weaving convention," he wrote on X.

The jokes Tony Hinchcliffe told were worse than the Holocaust.

The media will blow up jokes like this into huge stories while they look the other way or outright champion Israel blowing up women and children in Gaza.

AOC calls Trump MSG rally a “hate rally.”

AOC says she doesn't want to wake up every day under Trump with "some shit going on."

At least she gets to wake up. The children of Gaza massacred by her party never will. pic.twitter.com/GE4EWsAWym

Jeffrey Goldberg's story about Trump praising Hitler in The Atlantic (which seemed extremely dubious) and this joke are basically the only hysterical controversies the media's whipped up to a fevered pitch over the past few months because their owners don't seem to actually care if Trump is elected.

Jeff Bezos reportedly told the Washington Post not to endorse anyone, Los Angeles Times owner Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong told his paper to do the same and both Mark Zuckerberg and Warren Buffett are sitting on the sidelines.

For all the talk about Trump being a "Nazi" and a "fascist," he let a bunch of establishment Republicans and Israel Firsters run the White House and for the most part governed like Jeb Bush.

With all the hysteria generated over Hinchcliffe's tame joke, it makes it even more noteworthy how these unhinged comments from Rudy Giuliani (which were not a joke) claiming Palestinians are taught as toddlers to kill Americans generated zero controversy whatsoever:

The most controversial aspect of this election is how both candidates are ardent Zionists championing their support for America fighting Israel's wars in direct opposition to the will of the majority of Americans.

Howard Lutnick, head of the Trump Transition team, screams that we must elect Trump because "WE MUST CRUSH JIHAD." Is this the same rally where everyone claims to despise Bush and Cheney? 😂 pic.twitter.com/CXzCTuNGEA
