The creator of Godwin’s Law, Mike Godwin, has stated that comparing Trump to Hitler is apt. This comes after the Biden campaign and others drew parallels between Trump and Hitler. Godwin emphasized that the comparison is not a joke and the parallels seem inescapable. He also mentioned that the luxury of humor from Hitler comparisons is no longer affordable. The discussion arose following the Biden campaign's criticism of Trump's messaging.
