A most dubious comparison. According to several American media, Donald Trump has intensified his accusations of instrumentalization of justice by Joe Biden’s administration by comparing it to the Gestapo, the political police of Nazi Germany. The Republican candidate made the remarks Saturday during a meeting with party leaders at his Mar-a-Lago, Florida, property, according to an audio recording provided to US media by a campaign donor.
Targeted by four separate criminal proceedings, including one for which he has been appearing since April 15 in New York, Donald Trump repeatedly denounces a “witch hunt” hatched by the Democratic administration to eliminate him from the presidential race . In front of an audience of Republican executives and donors, on Saturday he accused the Democrats of “running a Gestapo-like administration,” and once again vilified the prosecutors who are investigating the cases against him, according to comments cited by the media.
Joe Biden’s campaign responded in a statement on Sunday, saying that the Republican candidate’s tirades only confirmed that “Trump’s campaign only revolves around him, his fury, his revenge and his lies.”
