'Just letting off steam': Fox News host gives stunning excuse for Trump's Hitler comment

Raw Story  

Fox News host and media analyst Howard Kurtz argued that former President Donald Trump was "just letting off steam" by openly wishing that he had Adolf Hitler's generals. "However, at the same time, Trump may have just been letting off steam about the loyalty he wanted from his generals compared to what he thought about Hitler's generals," the Fox News host added. On Wednesday, Fox News host Brian Kilmeade also defended Trump's desire to have Hitler's generals. While I don't think John Kelly made anything up, Trump may have been letting off steam about his generals & Hitler's generals.
