Thursday, October 24, 2024 - US Vice President, Kamala Harris has unleashed a scathing attack on Donald Trump, claiming that he would be another Adolf Hitler if he wins a second term in the White House.
Speaking on Wednesday, October 23, outside her home at the
U.S. Naval Observatory, Harris cited an interview Trump's former chief of
staff John Kelly gave to the New York Times where he said Trump often
spoke admirably of Hitler when he was in the White House.
Kelly, who served on Trump's staff from 2017 to 2019, told
the New York Times that Trump meets the 'definition of fascist' and
claimed the former president does not have an understanding of American history
or the Constitution.
Kelly, 74, alleged that Trump once said 'Hitler did
some good things' and praised the Nazi dictator for having 'rebuilt the
economy'. Kelly also told The Atlantic on Tuesday that Trump
said he wanted his staff to be more like 'German generals in World
War II' because they were 'totally loyal' to Hitler.
In a three-minute plea to the American people, Harris said:
'It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would
invoke Adolf Hitler - the man who is responsible for the deaths of 6 million
Jews.'
'Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and unstable and, in
a second term, people like John Kelly would not be there to be the guard rails
against his propensities and his actions,' she added.
'So the bottom line is this, we know what Donald Trump
wants. He wants unchecked power. The question in 13 days will be, what do the
American people want?'
Her speech came 13 days before the election.
