John Kelly has warned that Trump is a fascist. The right-wing press absurdly claims, quoting him, that Kamala Harris inspires “assassins.”

This week, retired General John Kelly — former chief of staff to former President Donald Trump — said in interviews with The New York Times that he believed Trump “fits the general definition of a fascist” and had previously praised Adolf Hitler. .

Vice President Kamala Harris echoed his sentiments during her town hall Wednesday night when asked about Kelly’s comments, sending the right-wing media into an uproar.

In a desperate attempt to spin serious remarks about Trump into a negative story about Harris, right-wing media outlets attacked the Democratic candidate as a hypocrite, claiming she was repeating unsubstantiated claims and suggesting she was inciting violence against Trump agreeing with Kelly’s Comments.
