His hometown turned away from him. It attempted to capture him and put him in prison after being corrupt by bad.
No problem.
This heir of Gotham— the child of rich, important parents who helped form his destiny — continued undaunted. With or without his detractors ‘ aid, he would save the city.

And in the method, he’d save the whole damned state.
Yes, he was rich and powerful. a tycoon numerous occasions. But it was more than that: In an age where ego reigned, one gentleman emerged from the shadows — risking his money, freedom, and yet his life — and not even an enemy’s guns would hinder him.
If anyone, it just made him more decisive.
Amidst the chaos and anguish, he became more than a gentleman: He became a sign.
And somewhere along the means, Donald Trump turned into Batman.
In the dying days of the 2024 presidential election, the Democrats ‘ closing discussion is” Trump is Hitler”. It’s about noble how steady they’ve been, but it’s an horribly self-indulgent Marketing strategy.  ,
When someone in PR or advertising makes a mistake, typically speaking for himself: He has chosen everything he loves and has made the centerpiece of his PR information. However, it does n’t really matter what YOU care about; all that matters is what your target audience is interested in.
I suspect someone at the DNC ( or within the Harris-Walz campaign ) is overruling his PR experts to pursue this” Trump is Hitler” close. because it definitely has no corporate sense:
People who genuinely believes that” Trump is Hitler” will presently cast a ballot for Harris! Look, if you genuinely believe the other member is Der Führer evil and you DON’T voting, you’re just an awful man! For the life of me, I ca n’t envision anyone being persuaded by the one-millionths” Trump is Hitler” comparison who was n’t already moved by numbers one through 999, 999.

There are far smarter, closing arguments for the Dems, but I wo n’t list them all. ( Our readers become agitated when I offer the Dems PR counsel. ) But I’ll just say that this is about the stupidest closing debate the Democrats could’ve made, and after the referendum’s over ( and the finger-pointing is afoot ), I’ll bet we’re gonna hear a lot of exciting stories about a Harris-Walz battle area mired in backstabbing, squabbling, and analysis-paralysis.
There are two main causes of the Democrats ‘ failure in bringing Hitler to terms with. ( C’mon, that’s a nice pun! ) The first is great ol’ style stress: If you’re gonna call people” Literally Hitler”! daily for a decade, later we’ll rhythm you out. All claims have a concentration point, when you push beyond them, you’re simply pouring money into an ineffectual Marketing campaign.
It’s horrible for your ROI because of the ( badly ) diminishing returns: They fall off a cliff.
The Dems ‘ only way to understand this is if their inner polling is but troubling that the goal is n’t to win the White House for Kamala again but to tar and feather Donald Trump with the symbol as a preventative hit for his second term.
However, the second reason why they’ve failed is that Donald Trump is no longer Donald Trump.
Bruce Wayne: I ca n’t give dramatic examples to people who are apathetic to shake them out of apathy. As a man, I’m flesh and blood, I can be ignored, I can be destroyed, but as a symbol… as a symbol I can be incorruptible, I can be everlasting. ]emphasis added]

The dialogue from” Batman Begins” says it all. Sure, Donald Trump, the billionaire businessman might’ve done some crazy things: divorces, bankruptcies, lawsuits, and all kinds of controversies. After all, Donald Trump, the billionaire businessman was just a man.  ,
He now represents something more significant than that.
He’s a symbol. And the liberal cries of” Hitler” cannot be tainted or corrupted in the minds of millions of Americans. Even if they raise the volume and repeat Hitler’s name MANY more times.
Because we know he’s not Hitler.
He’s Batman.
