The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1:

3:05pm- On Tuesday, The Atlantic published a piece written by Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg which alleges that Donald Trump praised Nazi generals for their loyalty, and that he once demeaned fallen American soldier Vanessa Guillen—refusing to pay $60,000 for her funeral. On Wednesday, Guillen’s sister—Mayra Guillen—responded to Goldberg’s claims via her X account: “Wow. I don’t appreciate how you are exploiting my sister’s death for politics—hurtful & disrespectful to the important changes she made for service members. President Donald Trump did nothing but show respect to my family & Vanessa. In fact, I voted for President Trump today.” During a CNN townhall event, Kamala Harris explicitly stated that she believes Trump is a “fascist.” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre echoed identical sentiments on behalf of the Biden-Harris Administration. On Friday, an Auschwitz survivor named Jerry Wartski appeared in a social media video demanding that Harris apologize for the outlandish comparison: “I know more about Hitler than Kamala will ever know in a thousand lifetimes. For her to accuse President Trump of being like Hitler is the worst thing I've ever heard in my 75 years of living in the U.S."

3:20pm- No, Trump is Not a Fascist. Rich Lowry of National Review writes: “Kamala Harris has officially ended the ‘joy’ phase of her campaign, and has instead entered the ‘Trump is a fascist” stage. Asked at a CNN town hall whether she thinks Donald Trump is a fascist, Harris said, ‘Yes, I do.’…Until now, Harris has tended to make a case against Trump as a standard Republican who caters to the needs of the wealthy. Now, she’s portraying him as an American Mussolini.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/10/no-trump-is-not-a-fascist/
