What Did Trump Say About Hitler?

WASHINGTON, USAWed Oct 23 2024
John Kelly, Donald Trump's former chief of staff, recently shared some shocking claims. He said Trump admired Nazi leader Adolf Hitler’s generals and thought Hitler "did some good things. " Kelly, who worked with Trump from 2017 to 2019, recalls Trump bringing up these topics multiple times. Kelly also warned that Trump meets the definition of a fascist. Trump's campaign has denied these statements. Trump's reported admiration for Hitler's generals is raising concerns among military leaders. Kelly, a retired Marine general, often pushed back against Trump's comments. He recalled asking Trump, "Surely you can’t mean Hitler’s generals? " Trump replied, "Yeah, yeah, Hitler’s generals. " This isn't the first time former top officials have expressed concerns about Trump. Retired generals Mark Milley and Jim Mattis have also voiced similar warnings. Polls show the presidential race is close in key states. Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are campaigning hard. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Harris' running mate, criticized Trump for his comments about Hitler. He said, "Trump is descending into madness. " Kelly's warning about Trump being a fascist adds to the growing concerns. He described Trump as someone who wants to be a dictator and prefers telling people what to do without worrying about legalities. These claims are serious and have sparked debate about Trump's leadership style and intentions.
