4 reasons NOT to believe General Kelly’s recent claim that Trump wanted a Nazi military
In what Glenn Beck says is the “one of the most horrifying things [he’s] ever seen,” Kamala Harris, during a surprise address from the vice presidential mansion, used the power of her office to once again make the case that Donald Trump is Hitler.
Despite the fact that Democrats and their media allies have demanded that Donald Trump “tone down his rhetoric,” the left continues to repeat the same language that likely inspired the assassination attempts against him. Harris’ surprise address is the latest example.
On October 23, the VP, with a contrived distraught expression, delivered the following statement: “So yesterday we learned that Donald Trump’s former Chief of Staff John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had. Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution; he wants a military that is loyal to him.”
According to Glenn, not only is this most likely completely made up, it’s a sign that “the wheels are coming off of [Harris’] campaign at record speed.”
Glenn lists the reasons we shouldn’t buy in to this latest ploy to smear Donald Trump.
Number one, John Kelly “has a bone with Donald Trump” because Trump fired him.
Number two, the timing is suspicious.
Kelly “has just now – a week and a half before this election – decided to come out with this statement,” despite it happening years ago.
“Believable? No,” says Glenn.
Number three, if what Kelly alleges “actually happened, Kelly is discrediting himself” because the United States is “one of the only countries that insists on loyalty to the Constitution” and not the president.
“If that had happened, he should have gone in front of the American people immediately, but he didn’t,” says Glenn.
Number four, “there’s no corroborating evidence of this.”
What there is evidence of, however, is that the military was “sabotaging [Trump]” during his term.
Trump “would say, ‘we’re going this way with our foreign policy,’ and the State Department and generals in the Pentagon were sabotaging that. They were calling our allies and our foes and saying, ‘Don’t worry about it,”’ Glenn recalls.
