Trump tries to convince voters that he is not a neo-Nazi at a rally

Trump tries to convince voters he is not a neo-Nazi at a rally

Presidential candidate Donald Trump told supporters in Georgia that he is the “opposite of a Nazi,” responding to accusations from Democrats.

CNN and AP write about this.

Trump's comments come after some Democrats called Trump a “Nazi” and a “fascist,” comparing his controversial rally at Madison Square Garden on Oct. 27 to a pro-Nazi rally at the same venue in February 1939. In particular, Hillary Clinton, Trump's 2016 rival, said it would be a reenactment of the 1939 event.

Democrat Kamala Harris said she believes Trump is a fascist after media reports alleged that the Republican expressed admiration for the loyalty of Nazi generals to Adolf Hitler during his presidency.

Thus, The Atlantic, citing two sources, wrote that Trump said in a private conversation at the White House that he “needs generals like Hitler.” John Kelly, Trump's campaign manager from 2017 to 2019, confirmed this in a comment to the New York Times. But Trump's spokesman Alex Pfeiffer objected.

In addition, Kelly claimed that Trump told him that “Hitler did some good things” and called service members killed on the battlefield “losers.”

In response to criticism from Democrats, Trump called himself “the opposite of a Nazi,” and Harris a “fascist.” He also falsely claimed that the Democrat calls anyone who doesn't vote for her a Nazi.

“My dad always said, 'Never use the word Nazi. Never use the word Hitler.' They use both words very loosely… I'm not a Nazi. I'm the opposite of a Nazi,” Trump said.
