It’s a day ending in “y.” Therefore, it’s time for the Left to spread a new myth about Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, the Biden team got hot and bothered about a video Trump posted on his Truth Social platform showing how he is successful, which he later deleted. The video had taken some stock newspaper files and pasted in new headlines.
One newspaper headline said, “What’s next for America?” Beneath that, there were some smaller headlines from the World War II era, and one of them said, “Industrial strength significantly increased, driven by the creation of a unified Reich.”

You had to zoom in to really see it clearly, but that was enough to declare Trump a Nazi.
Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said the video was not a campaign video, was created by a random account online, and then reposted by a staffer — who clearly did not see the word — while former President Trump was in court.
Let’s be clear about what’s actually happening here: Joe Biden’s party is split between people who are fine with today’s Nazis, such as Hamas or the Iranian regime, and people who are not. That is a battle that is being waged inside the Democratic Party.
There’s no question at this juncture in time that the party that is more associated with open anti-Semitism in the United States is the Democratic Party. There are open anti-Semites sitting in the Democratic Party caucus being treated with kid gloves by the Biden administration.
In fact, the Biden administration has gone so far as to put out a State Department report showing no evidence of Israeli war crimes and say there might be a reason to think Israel is doing war crimes, even though there is no evidence of such. Biden called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire just recently, with Hamas still in control of parts of the Gaza Strip, including American hostages. He announced to Israel that if they went into Rafah in a way he didn’t like, then he would simply remove particular armaments meant for Israel.
Thus, Democrats have to come up with some counter-narrative whereby Trump is the real threat to the Jews, that he is the serious anti-Semite.
Does anyone rationally think the serious anti-Semitism problem in this election lies with Donald Trump? Does anyone really believe that? I would love to see just one iota of evidence.

This is all designed to rely on the Joe Biden 2020 argument that Donald Trump is a threat to the Republic, so deep and abiding that it doesn’t matter that Biden can no longer speak English. Trump is the person you have to fear.
So in response to this dumb video that had a headline that was barely visible and was clearly a mistake by the person who put the thing together, Biden’s Senior Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates said:
As you know, we follow the law and do not comment on the 2024 election. It is abhorrent, sickening, and disgraceful for anyone to promote content associated with Germany’s Nazi government under Adolf Hitler, just as it is disgraceful to dine with neo-Nazis, or to say there were very fine people on both sides after Charlottesville, or to falsely claim that Hitler did some good things. Any anti-Semitic dog whistling is dangerous and offensive and profoundly un-American.
James Singer, a spokesperson for the Biden-Harris 2024 campaign snapped:
America, stop scrolling and pay attention. Donald Trump is not playing games; he is telling America exactly what he intends to do if he regains power: rule as a dictator over a ‘unified Reich.’ Parroting Mein Kampf while you warn of a bloodbath if you lose is the type of unhinged behavior you get from a guy who knows that democracy continues to reject his extreme vision of chaos, division, and violence.
This is a giant misdirect. At this moment, is there any question about which party is more closely tied to today’s Nazis? At its highest levels, the Democratic Party seems to believe if they say Nazis are bad, the only Nazis that have ever existed were the Nazis. But as far as today’s modern analogs, such as Hamas or Iran? Those are people worth negotiating with. Those people might become responsible actors on the world stage.
Remember when Trump suggested that Biden’s border policies, if left in place, would lead to a bloodbath in America, and this was twisted by the media to suggest Trump was threatening a bloodbath in which his followers killed people if he lost the election?
Then, Joy Behar on The View — who is single-handedly capable of powering a very small wattage light bulb using her intellectual firepower — has suggested if you wear a MAGA hat, you might as well be wearing a swastika, which is truly amazing because 90% of Orthodox Jews are going to vote for Trump. And given Biden’s predilections in the Middle East, we’ll walk over broken glass to do so.
It is truly amazing the lengths to which the Democratic Party and their friends in the media will go to in order to smear Trump with the most bizarre and stupid things.
And they somehow think that this is going to win them the election.
This is politics for dumb people.
