In the approximately millionth article by a left-wing hack comparing Trump and his followers to Nazis, Tom Nichols, whom Wikipedia laughably describes as an “academic,” resorted to the last refuge of the limp-wristed scoundrel — fashion criticism.

Nichols’ piece, lazily titled ‘The Republican Party Has a Nazi Problem,” hits the ground running with its accusation that a Trump administration official’s choice of dress represents a sartorial signifier of latent Nazism:

Over the past few months, during his agency’s chaotic crackdowns in Chicago and Minneapolis, the U.S. Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino has worn an unusual uniform: a wide-lapel greatcoat with brass buttons and stars along one sleeve. It looks like it was taken right off the shoulders of a Wehrmacht officer in the 1930s. Bovino’s choice of garment is more than tough-guy cosplay (German media noted the aesthetic immediately). The coat symbolizes a trend: The Republicans, it seems, have a bit of a Nazi problem.

The rest is the usual bland mix of straw men, out-of-context........
