Education Department Deletes Post After Trump-Hitler Comparison Criticism

The U.S. Department of Education deleted a social media post on Wednesday night after it drew widespread criticism for appearing to compare President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler. The post, made on the platform X, featured a clip from the 2017 film Darkest Hour in which Gary Oldman, portraying Winston Churchill, declares, "You cannot reason with a tiger when your head is in its mouth!" The video then cut to a montage of Trump set to techno music, with the caption "No one does it like us" followed by a tiger emoji.
