"My name is Hitler now."

The dad had previously attracted headlines when a supermarket refused to decorate a birthday cake for his son, mycentraljersey.com reports.

Despite the atrocities of World War 2, the father claims Hitler was a hero because "he saved Germany, he brought up the economy in Germany, built the roads in Germany, gave them more jobs in Germany, he considered the people in Germany."

"Only Trump has. The rest of them were only in office for a pocket full of money.

"Trump doesn't care about that. He cares about the people."
