Kamala Harris Condemns Trump's Reported Praise For Hitler
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday put Donald Trump’s praise for Adolf Hitler, according to his own onetime chief of staff, front and center into the 2024 presidential race. “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 and hundreds of thousands of Americans,” Harris said in remarks to reporters, just hours after John Kelly went public with his account. “Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had,” Harris said. “Anyone who refuses to bend a knee or dares to criticize him would qualify, in his mind, as the enemy within, like judges, like journalists, like nonpartisan election officials.” Harris closed by reminding voters that in a second term, people like Kelly, former Defense Secretary James Mattis, former Joint Chiefs chairman Mark Milley and even former Vice President Mike Pence would not be there to check Trump’s worst instincts, as they had while he was previously in the White House.
