Donald Trump’s ‘Opposite Of A Nazi’ Claim Triggers Scathingly Awkward Flashback
HuffPost
The former president also recalled two words his father told him he should never say.
Former President Donald Trump declared he is “the opposite of a Nazi” and received a stark reminder on social media of how he was once referred to by his own running mate, JD Vance.
“I’m not a Nazi. I’m the opposite of a Nazi,” Trump claimed at a rally in Atlanta, Georgia, on Monday, amid making baseless claims that Democratic rival Kamala Harris is calling him and anyone who votes for him “Nazis.”
Trump also said his late father, Fred Trump, would tell him never to say the word Nazi or refer to the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler.
The Republicans Against Trump group shared footage of the comments online:
Critics, however, pointed out how now-GOP vice presidential candidate Vance warned in 2016 that Trump, whose authoritarian rhetoric has escalated in recent weeks, could one day become “America’s Hitler.”
The veteran strategist also made a 2024 election prediction about Florida.
The longtime Trump ally went to prison after refusing to comply with the Jan. 6 congressional committee. Now he’s facing conspiracy, fraud and money laundering charges.
Critics asked, "Is that a threat?"
The former president spelled out what "real strength" means to him and the GOP nominee's version definitely wasn't it.
The "Daily Show" host then focused on the part of the rally that should be getting more attention.
Ryan Girdusky was kicked off the air for comments directed at Mehdi Hasan.
The chair of Puerto Rico’s Republican Party also said he would not support the former president without an apology over a comedian's insults at a Trump rally.
The vice presidential candidate said he hadn’t heard a comedian's offensive remark about Puerto Rico, which has rocked the Trump campaign.
"Trump threw paper towels and called Puerto Rico 'dirty' and 'poor,'" the singer griped amid uproar over racist jokes at a Trump rally. "But I was not surprised."
