Biden campaign senior advisor Adrienne Elrod said that former president Donald Trump intends to rule as a racist dictator, falsely claiming he “praised the Third Reich.”
During an appearance on CNN, Elrod was asked about Republicans who “worship” the former president.
“I think that rhetoric speaks for itself,” Elrod responded.
“Donald Trump and his MAGA allies are focused on seeking revenge and retribution,” Elrod asserted.
“They are running a negative campaign that is not focused on the American people, but is focused on themselves.”
She continued:
“Trump has made it very clear that if he steps back into that White House, he will rule as a dictator on day one.”
“He will seek — he will use the White House to seek political revenge and retribution on his political enemies.”
Elrod went on to claim that Trump admired Hitler.
“You know, he has said things that — you know, he’s praised the Third Reich,” she said.
“He has used, you know, racist rhetoric at every chance that he has,” she claimed.
Watch
It’s becoming more evident that the Joe Biden‘s campaign is growing more desperate since all they seem to have in their political arsenal is the “Trump’s a racist” narrative.
Perhaps their desperation stems from Biden’s approval rating hitting a new all-time low of 37.4 percent.

FiveThirtyEight founder Nate Silver noted that Biden’s downward trend could mean dropping out of the race is on the cards.
“But there’s some threshold below which continuing to run is a bigger risk,” Silver commented.
“Are we there yet? I don’t know. But it’s more than fair to ask.”
“If I’d told you 10 years ago a president would seek re-election at 81 despite a supermajority of Americans having concerns about his age, and then we’d hit 8% inflation for 2 years, you wouldn’t be surprised he was an underdog for reelection,” Silver further wrote.
“You’d be surprised it was even close!”
