Former Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill compared Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, stating that Trump is “more dangerous” because he has no philosophy and only cares about selfish self-promotion.
This comparison has also been made by other Democrats, including Hillary Clinton, who expressed concerns about Trump’s authoritarian tendencies and his intentions if re-elected in 2024.
“A lot of people have tried to draw similarities between Mussolini and Hitler and the use of the terminology like ‘vermin’ and the drive that those men had towards autocracy and dictatorship,” McCaskill said. (Trending: Biden’s Mental Decline Getting Even Worse)
“The difference, though, I think makes Donald Trump even more dangerous, and that is he has no philosophy he believes in. He is not trying to expand the boundaries of the United States of America,” she pressed.
“He is not trying to overcome a neighboring country like Putin is in Ukraine. He is not going for a grandiose scheme of international dominance.”
“All he wants is to look in the mirror and see a guy who is president.”
“All he cares about is selfish self-promotion. That’s the only philosophy he has.”
“When I was secretary of state, I used to talk about ‘one and done.’ What I meant by that is that people would get legitimately elected, and then they would try to do away with elections and do away with opposition and do away with a free press,” Clinton said on The View.
“Hitler was duly elected right? And so, all of a sudden, somebody with those tendencies, the dictatorial, authoritarian tendencies, would be like, ‘Oh, OK, we’re going to shut this down, we’re going to throw these people in jail,’ and they didn’t usually telegraph that. Trump is telling us what he intends to do,” she added.
The comparison has been prompted by Trump’s use of the term “vermin” to refer to his political foes.
