Former President Donald Trump and his allies are pushing back against comparisons drawn between Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally and a 1939 pro-Nazi event held there. Trump has denied any similarities to Hitler or Nazism, accusing Vice President Kamala Harris of spreading lies about him. Harris and her campaign have criticized Trump’s policies and rhetoric, calling him a fascist. Former first lady Melania Trump defended her husband, and other prominent figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. suggested that such comparisons make Trump vulnerable to being assassinated. Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly claimed that Trump has praised Hitler on multiple occasions. The Democratic National Committee projected onto Madison Square Garden the message that Trump praised Hitler during his rally. Despite denials from Trump and his campaign, reports have surfaced of positive comments made by Trump about Hitler in the past. Overall, there is a clear divide in perspectives on Trump’s political actions and rhetoric, with some seeing dangerous parallels to historical figures like Hitler.
