- President Trump has faced criticism for using similar language and rhetoric
- Campaign press secretary denies involvement in creating the video
- Trump previously used rhetoric echoing Adolf Hitler
- Backlash over dining with Holocaust-denying white nationalist
A recent video posted on Donald Trump’s social-media account included references to a ‘unified Reich’, sparking controversy and drawing comparisons to Nazi Germany. The video, which appeared during his Manhattan hush-money trial, also featured hypothetical headlines such as ‘Trump wins!!’ and ‘Economy booms!’. Trump has faced criticism for using language similar to that of Adolf Hitler in the past, including calling opponents ‘vermin’ and dining with a Holocaust-denying white nationalist. The campaign press secretary claimed the video was created by an online account and reposted by a staffer who didn’t see the word ‘Reich’.
