Former President Donald Trump made controversial comments at a Republican donor event at his Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago. He compared President Joe Biden’s administration to the ‘Gestapo,’ the secret police force of Nazi Germany, and claimed that Democrats effectively buy votes through social programs. Trump’s comments were condemned by Biden’s campaign, who called them despicable and insulting. Trump denies the charges against him and deflects blame, while Republican Gov. Doug Burgum confirms Trump’s statement but downplays its importance. The New York Times obtained an audio recording of the event, where Trump also promised to go after Biden in the upcoming campaign. Several GOP figures were mentioned as potential vice-presidential picks, including Sens. Tim Scott, Marco Rubio, and JD Vance. The event raised over $76 million in joint fundraising efforts between the Republican National Committee and the campaign. Trump also repeated false claims of election fraud, despite multiple recounts and court rejections of his assertions.
