White House Condemns Trump’s “Gestapo” Comment

“Instead of echoing the appalling rhetoric of fascists, lunching with Neo Nazis, and fanning debunked conspiracy theories that have cost brave police officer their lives, President Biden is bringing the American people together around our shared democratic values and the rule of law — an approach that has delivered the biggest violent crime reduction in 50 years.” – White House deputy press secretary Andrew Bates.

“It’s always wrong, offensive, and despicable to make comparisons like this — even more so when taken alongside the former president’s long history of normalizing antisemitism. It is especially heinous to use Nazi comparisons in the service of a bigoted, authoritarian agenda.” – Amy Spitalnick, CEO of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs.
