According to a retired four-star general who served for two years as his chief of staff in the White House, Donald Trump is a fascist and admires Adolph Hitler.
This is no longer just something that someone “who spoke on condition of anonymity” said they heard.
That Trump meets the definition of “fascist” comes from former chief of staff John Kelly’s own lips, as recorded by Michael S. Schmidt of The New York Times.
That Trump admires Hitler also comes from Kelly, as he was interviewed for The Atlantic, in an article titled “Trump: ‘I Need the Kind of Generals that Hitler Had.’ “
It seems that these stories should be splashed all over the mainstream media Wednesday morning. Or so you would think.
The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, USA Today or The Wall Street Journal — none of those featured on their print-edition front pages any of Kelly’s comments, according to Media Matters.
As of midday, I had to click-scroll three times down the home page of the Times to find Schmidt’s article with the shortened title “Kelly Warns Trump Would Rule Like a Dictator.”
I’m dumbfounded and don’t know what else to say.
We’ll just leave it with a comment on the website formerly known as Twitter from David Rothkopf, a columnist for Daily Beast:
“He admires Hitler. Why are we discussing anything else?”
