Hillary Also Says, "Trump Has Become More Unstable... He Is Indeed a Fascist"

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who ran as the Democratic candidate in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, evaluated former President Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, as "more unstable and more dangerous." She also agreed with Vice President Kamala Harris's assessment that Trump is a 'fascist.'

On the 24th (local time), Clinton stated in an interview with CNN, "We need to open our eyes to the danger this man (Trump) poses to our country."

She referred to former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, who said Trump "fits the general definition of a fascist," and explained that "it is not only people like General Kelly who are warning us." She expressed agreement with the claim that Trump is a fascist and emphasized that we should not be afraid to label him as such.

Regarding Vice President Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate, who held an emergency press conference at the residence the day before and launched an offensive stating "Trump qualifies as a fascist," Clinton said, "I think she is campaigning based on many lessons we have learned over the past eight years, about how dangerous Trump is." She added, "It may not have been as clear in 2016, but now it is definitely dangerous," expressing concern.

In particular, Clinton compared Trump’s rally scheduled for the 27th at Madison Square Garden in New York to a Nazi rally held at the same venue in 1939. She said, "What you will see is Trump actually reenacting the 1939 Madison Square Garden rally," and noted, "President Franklin Roosevelt was horrified by the fact that American neo-Nazis and fascists were lining up to pledge support for the kind of government they saw in Germany (Nazis). So we cannot ignore this."

The Nazi rally, led by the German American Bund in the past, sparked controversy among New York citizens. Thousands of counter-protesters expressed their opposition outside Madison Square Garden, raising social awareness about Nazi sympathizers.

Meanwhile, former President Trump stated that he could sell out the approximately 20,000-seat arena for the upcoming New York rally. In an interview with Fox News that day, he dismissed the fascist accusations, saying, "She (Harris) called me a fascist, but everyone knows that’s not true." He also denied past remarks related to "wanting generals like Hitler had," which were the basis of the offensive. Regarding former Chief of Staff Kelly, he disparaged him as a "stupid, low-class, and bad general."
