Mediaite reports:
Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) passionately condemned critics of Donald Trump for using the “dangerous and off-base” term “fascist” to describe the former president, before slowing his roll over a video of Trump repeatedly using the same word to describe his opponent.
Jonathan Karl then rolled tape on several clips of Trump saying things like, “The true divide in American politics today is between these far-left fascists led by Harris and her group,” and calling Harris “a radical left, Marxist, communist, fascist.”
“Why don’t you ask me, do I think Kamala Harris is a fascist? No. Do I think she’s a communist? No,” Graham said. “I think she’s the most liberal person ever to be nominated by a major party. I think she’s ineffective. I think she’s incompetent.”
