During a recent White House press briefing, it was confirmed that President Joe Biden and his administration believe that former President Donald Trump exhibits fascist tendencies. This assertion was supported by comments made by White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who referenced statements from Trump's former chief of staff, Gen. John Kelly.
According to Jean-Pierre, the White House concurs with Kelly's reported assessment that Trump fits the general definition of a fascist and desired the type of generals akin to those under Hitler's regime. The press secretary emphasized the importance of acknowledging the threats to democracy, particularly in light of the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
