and adolf hitler's generals. here is barack obama's first comment about donald trump's hitler worship. he said it tonight in georgia. >> here is the interesting thing. he acts so crazy, and has become so common that people no longer take it seriously. i'm here to explain to you just because he acts goofy does not mean his presidency would be dangerous. and, you do not have to take my word for it. lately, some of the people who now donald trump best have been saying in no uncertain terms, that he should not be president again. the other day, general john kelly, donald trump's former chief of staff, said that trump told him he wanted his generals to be like hitler's generals. now, don't boo. i want to explain that in politics, a good rule of thumb is, don't say you want to do anything like hitler. you know, that's just good political advice. but, it is useful, because it gives us a window into how donald trump thinks, and john kelly is not the only one saying this. two of his defense secretaries, people who worked

because they were incompetent, hitler's generals failed in every attempt to assassinate adolf hitler. but donald trump wants hitler's generals. he doesn't want franklin roosevelt's generals. the generals who actually won world war ii. the general who master minded the entire approach to world war ii. general dwight d. eisenhower who became president of the united states. legendary generals are. hitler thought his generals were clowns in the same way that donald trump thinks that the generals in command of the american military are clowns. jeffrey goldberg says when trump raised the subject of german generals kelly responded by asking do you mean bismarck's generals? he went on, i mean, i knew he didn't know who bismarck was or about the franco-prussian war. do you mean the kaiser's generals? surely you don't mean hitler's generals. and he said yeah. yeah. hitler's generals. he comes from a german family who changed their name from drumph. to americanize. but he cannot americanize his admiration of adolf hitler and his generals. franklin delano roosevelt was running for reelection in 1

hitler's generals conspired reportedly to assassinate adolf hitler. because they were incompetent , hitler's generals did not assassinate him. but trump wants hitler's generals. he does not want franklin roosevelt generals, the one that won world war ii, dwight d. eisenhower who up with the war and then became president of the united states. patton, bradley, trump does not want any of them. you know who did not want hitler's generals? hitler. he thought they were clowns in the same way that donald trump thinks that the generals in command of the american military are clowns. jeffrey goldberg reports quote, when trump raised the subject of german generals, kelly responded by asking, "do you mean bismarck's generals? he went on, i mean, i knew he didn't know who bismarck was or franco-prussian war. certainly you do not mean hitlers generals, he said yeah, yeah, hitlers. >> trump comes from a german family the name drump. but he can not americanize his admiration for hitler. 80 years ago roosevelt was running for re-election in 1944, he and his republican

adolf hitler how would you be right now? >> oh, i would be a bad thing to say i would say a terrible, terrible thing to say, right but i guarantee you that kamala harris key would say she didn't say it just as what's happening now. the same thing happened. so that's why people in america don't believe have to stop bakari because it comes out half the people say it did have been have two people say it didn't happen, and everyone's left 14 days from election shrugging their shoulders, saying white noise. >> so, you know, so fortunate all day today. i've been good for you around the first time this report was sitting and makeup coming onto this show and i think that's how most americans are living their day-to-day just, you know, trying to get by dropping their kids off to school, going to work and i'm sick to my stomach right now. that this is even meaning to be discussed and it's just not i can understand dan saying he doesn't say it's didn't say it has happened. but the reason why it's believable that it did happen is becaus

on september 30, 1938, neville chamberlain, eduardo padier, benito mussolini and adolf hitler signed the munich agreement on the annexation of the border lands of czechoslovakia to nazi germany. the munich agreement between great britain, france, italy and germany was a major step towards restoring the power of the german reich. the munich agreement is a treaty that allowed germany to obtain the richest territories, the richest territory, because. the czech republic not only had the capabilities and a serious resource zone in the sudetenland, but this gave germany the opportunity to get an additional outpost at the beginning and development of a powerful offensive within the framework of the already directly future second world war. 1938. germany was increasingly gaining momentum from 1933 to 38, 5 years passed. in 5 years, adolf hitler received, firstly. the most powerful support from the western powers, secondly, what did the world see? look how interestingly, since 1933 , not only has germany's position been officially declared on german territory, germany has withdrawn from the l

reporter: the >> it is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that donald trump would invoke adolf hitler. >> reporter: the atlantic reports two unnamed sources say they heard president trump say i need the kind of generals hitler had, people who are totally loyal to him that follow orders. nbc news has not independently confirmed that reporting, and the trump campaign says trump never made those comments. kelly says he's speaking out now because trump recently suggested using the military against political opponents who he called the enemy from within if there is election day chaos. kelly became a fierce trump critic after leaving the white house, and the trump campaign tonight responded, quote, john kelly has totally beclowned himself with these stories he has fabricated. late tonight trump posting that kelly is a, quote, degenerate, who made up the story about pure trump derangement syndrome hatred, adding he was tough and dumb. >> and pete, we've got a little less than two weeks to go in this campaign. you have new reporting this evening on the vice president's closing argument plan.

in world war ii and drove him to suicide, general john kelly still had to battle adolf hitler in donald trump's white house. >> what would you say when he said to you that hitler did a lot of good things. >> i would tell him, sir, first of all, you should never say that but if you knew what district hitler was all about from the beginning to the end, everything he did was in support of his racist, fascist life, you know, philosophy, so that nothing he did, you could argue was good. it was certainly not done for the right reason. he would occasionally say that. >> what would you say -- what would he say when you would lay it out to him? >> donald trump is the most ignorant person who has ever held the title of president in this country. and he proved that in many ways, including in his administration, not just because of his admiration for adolf hitler, because of his admiration for adolf hitler's generals. in an article in the atlantic published today, donald trump had admiration for hitler and hitler's generals, who every historian knows, were actually the worst generals in the europea

you're in the situation room >> firm reports that trump praised adolf hitler. want to bring in seeing as jeff zone, these live from the site of the cnn town hall in delaware county, pennsylvania. jeff set the scene for us well if those undecided and persuadable voters right here in delaware county, just outside of philadelphia, of course, will be so critical in just 13 days to the election. >> but they're also critical tonight. they will be asking questions of vice president harris getting her insights more into policy, perhaps even some of our personality but she had course has been talking entirely about donald trump, why she believes see is unfit for office. she spoke earlier today calling him unhinged, and unstable donald trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the united states constitution he wants a military that is loyal to him he wants a military who will be loyal to him personally one that will obey his orders even when he tells them to break the law or abandon their oath to the constitution of the united states. and just

of staff john kelly said on the record and on tape that trump repeatedly praised nazi dictator adolf hitler also said his former boss fits the definition of a fascist. kelly is a retired four-star marine general who also served as trump's secretary of homeland security. vice president harris warned today that if trump is elected again, people like general kelly will not be there to serve as guardrails and keep him in check. the trump campaign vehemently denies kelly's remarks, but this is all playing out with voting already underway. more than 24 million americans have already cast ballots, either in person or by mail. we have a team of correspondents covering both campaigns, with tonight analysis from cbs's major garrett. but we are going to begin with cbs's nikole killion on the trail with donald trump in battleground georgia and some late-breaking news. good evening, nikole. >> reporter: good evening, norah. former president donald trump hit back tonight saying john kelly made this story up, calling him dumb and a low life, that's despite reports about trump's comments which have been ci

they were not loyal to adolf hitler. general to go to combat with american forces and he lost. then, in the final year of world war ii when hitler discovered that he was one of the generals plotting to assassinate him hitler offered him the opportunity to commit suicide without revealing to the german people that he was involved in the plot to assassinate hitler. because donald trump is the stupidest and ignorant person to ever work in the white house in any capacity he does not know that the greatest generals in the history of war were the american generals who won world war ii. eisenhower, commander of the forces that went on to be elected president of the united states for two terms. there was never a german general with the wisdom and brilliance of eisenhower. pattern, trump probably saw the movie for which george c scott won the oscar for the portrayal. gregory peck portrayed the famous general, douglas mcarthur. general omar bradley in the same film with patton. trump did not have to read a single book to know anyt

but he spoke positively about adolf hitler. calling those comments deeply troubling the vice president said it's incredibly dangerous that donald trump would invoke adolf hitler. man. that was responsible for the death of $6000000.00 jews and hundreds of thousands of americans. the campaign and the vice president also deeply concerned about other comments. the donald trump is also made regarding election officials, journalists, and also judges calling those officials the enemy within. they say this is just further proof that the former president and the republican presidential nominees is in fact unhinged and a danger to democracy. and they have gone on to say that unlike the 1st term with donald trump, with an office, there are no longer the guard rails that would be in place for a 2nd, donald trump presidency. in other words, those that were in his administration to check his power can not necessarily be guaranteed to be there in a 2nd, donald trump presidency. now donald trump campaign has responded to these accusations, say

he said he wanted generals like adolf hitler had. donald trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the united states constitution. he wants a military, that is loyal to him. company healthcare, how small this from philadelphia. the harris campaign has responded to the comments allegedly made by donald trump while he was in office as president that he spoke positively about adolf hitler. calling those comments deeply troubling the vice president said it's incredibly dangerous that donald trump would invoke adolf hitler. a man that was responsible for the death of 6000000 jews and hundreds of thousands of americans. the campaign and the vice president also deeply concerned about other comments. the donald trump is also made regarding election officials, journalists, and also judges calling those officials the enemy within. they say this is just further proof that the former president, as the republican presidential nominees, is in fact an hinge and a danger to democracy. and they have gone on to say that unlike the 1st term, when donald trump was in office, there are

hear john kelly talk the way he did for so long about his recollections of donald trump praising adolf hitler, like we have to just take a moment and take a breath and let that sink in. >> but there have been so many things at has happened just since labor day. we have a list and it's almost too much to put on the screen that would make any other candidate scramble and get into a lot of trouble. so the question is, laura, you're out, you talk okay to voters in swing states all the time how impactful do you think this is going to be given the list that i think we can keep scrolling on that list. well, i will not obey that from some of the moderate republicans that i've talked to people that voted for trump in the past those january 6 comments you know, impact them. >> they don't like them. i've heard from a number of other voters about his attacks on immigrants yes. does it help him with his base and with some shifting segment of the electorate, but it also upsets and angers a lot of other voters and that's something that they're calculating and paying attention to a lot of voters i've talked,

adolf hitler. >> adolf hitler. this is where we are tonight. presidential candidates clashing over donald trump invoking hitler positively as top veterans who served donald trump, who proved they believe in much of what he had said at the time in some of his policies, who cannot be questioned for their motives if they actually already worked for trump but are now warning very directly with all of their military experience behind them that donald trump -- in moments john kelly turning into a whistleblower as he recounts trump's repeated positive hitler references behind closed doors. so i'm going to bring you that in about 90 seconds. but as we're doing every night until the election we begin with your election facts briefing. 13 days out. a period where most campaigns most years would focus on turnout, meaning you're not in a debate in public anymore, you're just trying to turn out your own supporters. but this year is different as you may have noticed with harris's later entry. both campaigns, in w

it is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that donald trump would invoke adolf hitler. former president trump firing back on social media accusing vice president harris of going so far as to call me adolf hitler because he says she's losing and calling her a threat to democracy. also accusing john kelly of making up a story out of pure trump derangement syndrome. hatred. the trump campaign calling the kelly stories debunked and fabricated, while the former president campaigned in battleground georgia, encouraging christians to vote in a faith based town hall. we've really energized a lot of people this time because they've seen how bad it is. this last four years has been it's been a horror show. before talking immigration at a rally as the nominees make their final push. former president trump rallies today in arizona and nevada. vice president harris in georgia, alongside former president obama and bruce springsteen. and we're learning from a senior campaign official that the vice president is preparing for a closing argument speech on tuesday at the site where former

new york times" trump fits the definition of a fascist and that the former president has said adolf hitler quote did some good things. >> it is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that donald trump would invoke adolf hitler, the man who is responsible for the deaths of 6 million jews and hundreds of thousands of americans. this is a window into who donald trump really is, from the people who know him best, from the people who worked with him side-by-side in the oval office and in the situation room. >> reporter: telling telling "the times" trump rep comments about hitler. >> he commented more than once that, you know, hitler did some good things too. and, of course, if you know history, again, i think he's lacking in that. but if you know what -- you know hitler was all about, you'd be pretty hard to make an argument that he did anything good. >> so what would you say when he said to you that hitler did a lot of good things? >> well, i'd tell him that, i said, first of all, you should never say that, but if you knew what hitler was all about, from the beginning to the end, everything

criminal justice reform secured the border not exactly the record of an evil warmongering lover of adolf hitler a madman. needless to say the melodramatic comparisons to hitler are falling flat and are all predictable and it will not stop there. so buckle up it will be an emotional roller coaster ride democrats and their allies in the state run medium up will be trying every day this tactic of slander in smear. we found a after ten years donald trump did this and that. just buckle up because you know it's coming. kamala harris cannot run on her terrible record or her far left radical extreme beliefs. so smearing donald trump and calling him names and those who support them names is pretty much the tool they have. per usual barack obama is so perplexed him but willard without american politics have become so bitter. he did once talk about bitter people that cling to their gods guns and bibles and religions as well. >> as frustrating as politics can be some time and i know it can be frustrating. i do not watch cable news i really don't. there were times where i don't understand how we got so toxi

news cycle in this hour, but it's because it's because he allegedly said he wants generals like adolf hitler had said admiring things to his chief of staff, who went on the record saying that hitler did some good things these are not the kind of things i would assume a normal campaign in the closing days would would want obviously, it's baked in. i get all i think you're all your points are are absolutely accurate but it still if there are some people who are undecided, it's i guess the question is, for those undecided people, do we really want to spend the next four years every day with this kind of stuff? >> no. absolutely. i mean, this is not a new cycle that i would think donald trump would want, but let me get back to what aaron said and we're anna said the problem problem here is the republican party's refusal to be honest with the american people. in fact there, there, there misleading intentionally deceiving the american people. i ran the first impeachment war room where donald trump tried to shake down another come, another country to get dirt on joe biden. he violated his oath the

we know the history of adolf hitler, starting world war ii, and perpetrating the holocaust, right? let, me just quote john kelly's firsthand description of donald trump, the current gop nominee for president his description of adolf hitler, he said well, but hitler did some good things. i said, well what and he said, well, hitler rebuilt the economy but what did he do with the rebuilt economy? he turned it against his own people and against the world. and i said, sir, you can never say anything good about the guy, nothing caliber counted. i mean, mussolini was a great guy in comparison, kelly went on to say, it's pretty hard to believe he missed the holocaust though, and pretty hard to understand how he missed the 400,000 american gis that were killed in the european theater. kelly told me, but i think it's more again, the tough guy thing. i mean, i bring that up by book, came out in march, did a lot of stories around this in march 7 months ago into the presidential campaign, widely reported around the world from times of israel to here in the u.s. and yet for some reason, it didn'

vladimir putin is the adolf hitler of our century. the invasion of ukraine is the equivalent to what hitler did, trying to take over a country that's free and doing that and hundreds of thousands people have died in this war. this this is a war. for what purpose? it is for the purpose of vladimir putin. saying going back his i mean, you you what he writes what he says. it's it's really that somehow ukraine doesn't exist. well, of course it. oh, it really be a part of. so i'm going to take it and invade. and there's scenes in the book before the invasion where the intel agents, people in the united states and in the biden white house, they're saying wait a minute. this is crazy. not going to do this. and people going back and forth, rightly so. is this possible? of course he did it. he and he is now put maybe think of all the terror and war in the world. what's going on in the ukraine in vision is so serious. one of the things i did in the reporting is talk to the president. duda and geographically, there's poland and then ukraine and

that is exactly what adolf hitler thought and said.trump doesn't seem to remember that he is a descendent of immigrants to this country, including his mother who was an immigrant. two of the mothers of donald trump's children are immigrants. donald trump said today "we've got a lot of bad genes in our country right now." again, that is almost word for word what adolf hitler was saying in the 1930s before he started world war ii and before he started and organized extermination program. of the jewish people. in which adolf hitler's ambition was to execute every living jewish person he could find anywhere in europe. because, among other things, he believed the bad genes theory that donald trump believes and spews in his poisonous, and relentless stupidity. at 78 years old. we don't know how much longer the world will have to endure donald trump's ranting. but we should expect that for every year donald trump has left, he is going to get worse. today's print edition of the new york times carries an account of donald trump's cognitive decl
