| NFL player wants to have dinner with Hitler |
| 2022-02-10 |
| By Ryan Glasspiegel [NYPost] Jonathan Allen, a defensive tackle for the Washington Commanders, listed Adolf Hitler among a trio of people he’d like to have dinner with. Allen, 27, was doing an “ask me anything” on his Twitter account, and answered a query regarding which three guests he’d invite for dinner. “My grandad, hitler, and micheal [sic] Jackson,” Allen answered. Why Hitler? "He’s a military genius and I love military tactics but honestly I would want to pick his brain as to why he did what he did," Allen tweeted. "I’m also assuming that the people I’ve chosen have to answer my questions honestly.” Jonathan Allen wrote on Twitter he’d want to get dinner with Hitler because, Allen said, “he’s a military genius.” Allen has since deleted his tweets referencing Hitler and apologized. "Early I tweeted something that probably hurt people and I apologize about what I said," Allen wrote. "I didn’t express properly what I was trying to say and I realize it was dumb! I tweeted Mr. Allen with links to books by John Erickson and by David Glantz |

| #5 What if the reason we are talking about Hitler is the true bad guy German who actually won WWII was assassinated by the Time Cops? -Hippie circle slips gear, slows to a halt- |

| #3 ...don't tell that to the French. Snark of the Day! I'm sure Mr Hitler would be a fascinating dinner companion. Assuming you could keep him from encroaching on your mashed potatoes. |

| #1 Hitler was a vegetarian, frequently went on hours-long lectures at his dinners, and was no military genius. |
