Kamala Harris caused a recent media flurry when President Donald Trump claimed to have been compared to Adolf Hitler and accused of being a Nazi by his fellow running candidate.
In a recent speech, Harris claimed that a retired four-star general, John Kelly, exposed who Trump really was.
“While Donald Trump was a president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had,” Harris stated. “Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that will be loyal to the United States Constitution, he wants a military that will be loyal to him. He wants a military that will be loyal to him personally.”
During the Atlanta rally in the state of Georgia, Trump blanketed the crowd with the idea that Harris thinks that everyone that does not vote for her is a Nazi.
“They say ‘he’s Hitler’, and then they say ‘he’s a Nazi’,” Trump quoted, in response to Harris. “I’m not a Nazi, I’m the opposite of a Nazi.”
People were astounded by Harris’s accusations towards her opposing presidential candidate, many questioning if Harris herself was a fascist and if she was a bad choice for future president.
“How dare Kamala Harris call her fellow citizens Nazis for loving this country enough to call her a bad vice president.” Republican vice president candidate JD Vance proclaimed at a recent campaign in Wisconsin. “She is a disgrace. She is endangering the life of Donald J. Trump.”
Though many are blasting her for her accusations, many do still believe that Trump sits in line with fascist beliefs as shown in a recent poll amongst registered voters hosted on the ABC News website. 44% of voters answered that they do believe that Trump is a fascist, 18% voted for Harris, 5% for both, and 32% voted for neither.
Still, many people are enraged, especially those who have gone through the tragedy that was the Holocaust themselves or have relations to victims.
“For her to accuse President Trump of being like Hitler is the worst thing I’ve ever heard in my 74 years of living in America.” 94-year-old Auschwitz survivor Jerry Wartski claimed in an interview shown during one of Trump’s more recent campaign ads. “She owes my parents and everyone else who was murdered by Hitler an apology for repeating this lie.”
