Kamala Harris’s assessment of Donald Trump as a “fascist” does not come out of nowhere.
John Kelly, who served as Trump’s White House chief of staff, accused his former boss of being a “fascist” earlier this week.
In an interview with the New York Times, Kelly said Trump met the “general definition of a fascist” and “commented more than once that Hitler did some good things too”.
Kelly first joined the Trump administration as homeland security secretary, before moving to the White House in 2017.
General Mark Milley, who served under Trump as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has previously made similar accusations, calling Trump “fascist to the core”.
“We don’t take an oath to a king, or a queen, to a tyrant or dictator or wannabe dictator,” he said in an interview.
Milley added: “No one has ever been as dangerous to this country as Donald Trump.”
