WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris Wednesday blasted Donald Trump over reports that he has spoken positively about Hitler, and described the former president's recent behavior as "increasingly unhinged."
“It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler — the man who is responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews, and hundreds of thousands of Americans," Harris said in brief remarks, speaking directly to the camera, from her residence at the Naval Observatory in Washington.
Former White House chief of staff John Kelly told The New York Times in interviews published Tuesday that he had witnessed Trump repeatedly praising Hitler and saying the Nazi leader had done "some good things." Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung on Tuesday denied Kelly’s claim. He told NBC News that Harris is peddling “outright lies and falsehoods” because he said her campaign is “in shambles.”
In her remarks Wednesday, Harris also blasted Trump's recent use of the term "enemy from within" to describe Democrats and other political adversaries, including Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif. Harris said Trump's comments are "further evidence for the American people of who Donald Trump really is." "Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and unstable, and in a second term, people like John Kelly would not be there to be the guardrails against his propensities and his actions," she added.
