Have you noticed that the same types of poses trump uses for public pictures, the facial exaggeration, grimace

are the same that hitler used for effect? I remember reading about how much effort hitler put into the posed pictures and used those exaggerations during speeches. He even had experts helping with his tough guy theatrics. I've noticed more and more being used on social media posts like it's orchestrated,

posted that creepy photo from MANY years ago, of krasnov in a blue outfit. .the pants were shorts-length, and with long white knee-high socks, and one of his ridiculously long ties, posed weirdly. Next to it was a photo of hitler, same pose, same length of shorts, tie, and white knee-high socks. creeeeeeepy.
