No, Arnie. The U.S. Capitol Riots Were Not Like Kristallnacht.

This past weekend, Former Republican California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger released a video in which he compared the January 6th riot at the U.S. Capitol building to Kristallnacht. “I’m very aware of Kristallnacht, or the Night of Broken Glass. It was a night of rampage against the Jews carried out in 1938 by the Nazi equivalent of the Proud Boys. Wednesday was the Day of Broken Glass right here in the United States.”

Schwarzenegger also said that “being from Europe, I’ve seen firsthand how things can spin out of control.”
