VP criticizes Trump’s alleged admiration for Hitler and warns of dangers in potential second term.

Vice President Kamala Harris has launched a scathing critique of Donald Trump, labeling him a “fascist” seeking “unchecked power” and warning of his desire for a personally loyal military. Her remarks followed explosive allegations by John Kelly, Trump’s former chief of staff, who claimed Trump had expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler’s loyal military commanders.

In a surprise speech delivered from her Washington, D.C., residence on Wednesday, Harris painted a dire picture of what a second Trump presidency might entail.

“Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and unstable,” Harris said. “In a second term, those who once acted as guardrails against his worst impulses, like John Kelly, would no longer be there to rein him in.”
