Kamala Harris calls Trump a 'fascist' during CNN town hall

Send Push
US Vice President Kamala Harris during a CNN town hall said that she believes that Donald Trump is a " fascist ." When host Anderson Cooper posed the question, “Do you think Donald Trump is a fascist?” Harris responded, “Yes, I do,” adding that those who know him best should be trusted on this subject.

The town hall, held in Delaware County, Pennsylvania , featured undecided voters just two weeks before the presidential election. This event followed a prior discussion where Harris accused Trump of wanting unchecked power, referencing comments made by former White House chief of staff John Kelly.


Kelly revealed that Trump had expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler's generals, which Harris cited as evidence of Trump’s authoritarian tendencies. She said, "Donald Trump wants unchecked power... one that will obey his orders, even when he tells them to break the law or abandon their oath to the constitution."

The town hall was strategically timed, with both candidates focusing on key battleground states like Pennsylvania and Georgia. Harris holds a narrow lead over Trump, with recent polling showing her at 46% compared to Trump's 43%. The candidates are vying for the support of undecided voters, who could ultimately determine the outcome of the election.

Harris's comments about Trump’s leadership style echo sentiments from other former Trump officials. Retired Army Gen. Mark A. Milley described Trump as “fascist to the core” and “the most dangerous person to this country” in a recent book. Similarly, Gen. Jim Mattis reportedly concurred with Milley's assessment.

Whit elections just around the corner, Trump is focusing on rallies, including one scheduled in Duluth, Georgia, while Harris continues to engage voters directly through town halls and campaign events.
