One Black Michigan voter disputes recent allegations that former President Trump is a “fascist.”
Allen Tomkowiak, a Trump voter, spoke with an NBC News crew on Sunday about the “final decisions” before the Nov. 5 presidential election. Several Democratic lawmakers, including Vice President Kamala Harris, have recently accused Trump of being a fascist, but Tomkowiak has refuted the charge.
“I’ve heard so much about Trump being angry, and he’s a fascist and dictator — but problem is, when I listen to him, I don’t hear any of that,” Tomkowiak said during a segment on MSNBC’s “Alex Witt Reports.”
Tomkowiak’s remarks come days after Harris compared Trump to Adolf Hitler and accused him of seeking unrestrained power.
“It is clear from John Kelly’s words that Donald Trump is someone who, I quote, ‘certainly falls into the general definition of fascists,’ who in fact vowed to be a dictator on day one and vowed to use the military as his personal militia to carry out his personal and political vendettas,” Harris went on. “Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and unstable, and in a second term, people like John Kelly would not be there to be the guardrails against his propensities and his actions.”
She also wrote, “Donald Trump wants unchecked power. He wants a military like Adolf Hitler’s, one that is loyal to him rather than our Constitution. He is insane and unpredictable, and if he is given another term, no one will be able to stop him from acting on his worst inclinations.”
During a CNN town hall on Thursday, Harris reiterated his comparisons of Trump to Hitler.
“You quoted General Milley, who called Donald Trump a fascist. You haven’t used that word to describe him. Let me ask you tonight: do you think Donald Trump is a fascist? CNN’s Anderson Cooper questioned Harris.
“Yes, I do.” “Yes, I do,” Harris replied.
