'Trump is Hitler' closing argument from Harris bombs with undecided voters in key swing state

Undecided Pennsylvania voters in a focus group said Democrats calling Donald Trump the next Adolf Hitler is not convincing them to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.Speaking with Mark Halperin, all seven participants agreed the argument that "Trump is Hitler" and a "fascist" from Democrats in the final days of the election is unproductive. Instead, they want to see more important issues addressed."To me, it's horrible that she's saying that about him. If he was saying that about her, everybody would be up in arms," a woman named Linda told Halperin."She obviously thinks it's going to help her. I don't think it does at all," another participant said. The participant claimed it would be unusual for former Chief of Staff John Kelly to make up a story of Trump praising Hitler's generals but added that Kelly "had the responsibility to resign the day that was said, if that's true. "I don't think that's the case," the participant said. 'I know President Trump, and he would never say this.'"I think part of the reason why I'm being pushed towards Trump so strongly is that I find that the Democrats and the left just keep going straight to Hitler all of the time, with everything," another man said. "If it's the left not pushing Hitler, it's the right pushing Stalin. So it's like we're fighting World War II every single day for every single election. It's so exhausting. ...

'Trump is Hitler' closing argument from Harris bombs with undecided voters in key swing state


Undecided Pennsylvania voters in a focus group said Democrats calling Donald Trump the next Adolf Hitler is not convincing them to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.

Speaking with Mark Halperin, all seven participants agreed the argument that "Trump is Hitler" and a "fascist" from Democrats in the final days of the election is unproductive. Instead, they want to see more important issues addressed.

"To me, it's horrible that she's saying that about him. If he was saying that about her, everybody would be up in arms," a woman named Linda told Halperin.

"She obviously thinks it's going to help her. I don't think it does at all," another participant said.

The participant claimed it would be unusual for former Chief of Staff John Kelly to make up a story of Trump praising Hitler's generals but added that Kelly "had the responsibility to resign the day that was said, if that's true.

"I don't think that's the case," the participant said.

'I know President Trump, and he would never say this.'

"I think part of the reason why I'm being pushed towards Trump so strongly is that I find that the Democrats and the left just keep going straight to Hitler all of the time, with everything," another man said. "If it's the left not pushing Hitler, it's the right pushing Stalin. So it's like we're fighting World War II every single day for every single election. It's so exhausting. ... It's so hyperbolic."

When Halperin asked the group to raise their hands if they thought Harris' recent attacks on Trump were valuable to the discourse, no one did.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
