During the electoral day, a renewed controversy emerged following Trump’s alleged praise of Adolf Hitler. A former chief of staff of the ex-president confirmed that, in his opinion, Trump aligns with the definition of fascist and has expressed admiration for Hitler. John Kelly pointed out that the ex-president fits within the spectrum of the extreme right and has even mentioned that Hitler also took positive actions.
In response to these statements, Kamala Harris's campaign team called a press conference with two retired military personnel. Harris has questioned Trump's mental and physical fitness for the presidential office, seeking to attract moderate Republican voters. For his part, Trump has claimed that Harris lacks the intelligence and strength needed to lead the United States.
Meanwhile, campaign events for both candidates have been announced in strategic locations. Harris plans to hold a symbolic event on October 29 in Washington, trying to attract conservative voters. Trump, on the other hand, held a political rally in Georgia, focusing his speech on Christian and nationalist voters.
Despite the controversy generated by the statements about Hitler, both candidates continue their campaigns in key states for the election. With 13 days until the polls, surveys show a technical tie between Trump and Harris. In this context, Trump has reiterated his stance against illegal immigration and promised strong measures regarding it if he is re-elected.
In the coming days, Trump is expected to visit several key states, including New York. Meanwhile, Harris and Trump have conducted campaign activities in Pennsylvania and Georgia, respectively. The statements and strategies of both candidates have generated mixed reactions among political analysts and retired military personnel, who have expressed concern about the potential consequences of a possible re-election of Trump.
