Nice try, Hillary.
During an appearance at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin, Texas over the weekend, former Secretary of State and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton compared former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler and his event in Ohio to a Nazi rally —because of course she did.
“I remember as a young student, you know, trying to figure out, how people get basically brought in by Hitler. How did that happen? I’d watch newsreels and I’d see this guy standing up there ranting and raving, and people shouting and raising their arms. I thought, ‘What’s happened to these people?'” Clinton said at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin.
“You saw the rally in Ohio the other night, Trump is there ranting and raving for more than an hour, and you have these rows of young men with their arms raised. I thought, what is going on?”
Watch the clip above.
From Fox News:
Trump hosted a rally in Youngstown, Ohio, last Saturday in support of US Senate candidate JD Vance, who is facing Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan to succeed retiring Republican Sen. Rob Portman.
Some Trump supporters in attendance raised one index finger in the air at the end of the former president’s speech.
“My fellow citizens, this incredible journey we’re on together has only just begun, and it is time to start talking about greatness for our country again. We are one movement, one people, one family, and one glorious American nation,” Trump told the crowd.
Taylor Budowich, a spokesman for Trump, accused Clinton of “using some of the most disgusting smears imaginable.”
“It seems like perpetual-failed-candidate Hillary Clinton’s basket of deplorables has run stale, not unlike herself,” Budowich told Fox News Digital in a statement. “It’s pathetic, it’s divisive, and it is further cementing her legacy of cringe.”
