Chaos erupted on Piers Morgan’s show on Wednesday when journalist Wajahat Ali and conservative radio host Ben Ferguson clashed over the Democratic Party’s label of former President Donald Trump as a “fascist.”
Vice President Kamala Harris sparked a media frenzy on October 23 when she said during a CNN town hall that she agreed that President Trump is a fascist. Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made a controversial joke at President Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday that compared Puerto Rico to a “floating island of trash,” raising tensions as Republicans and President Trump faced backlash.
On “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Mr. Ali defended Mr. Trump’s links to Hitler and fascism, but Mr. Ferguson tried to interrupt him by urging him to add context.
“When you start calling people Hitler, it’s in context. When you start talking about context…” Ferguson said.
“Ben, stop galloping and galloping. Ben, I’m going to kick your ass now, stop galloping and galloping and just listen to me. I heard you,” Ali said. answered.
Ali went on to describe how former Trump aides have made claims comparing the former president to Adolf Hitler. (Related article: ‘Don’t believe this crap’: Megyn Kelly says voters don’t believe Democrats’ ‘Hitler’ rhetoric)
“Yesterday, when Donald Trump was asked the following question, you, Ben, and Pierce agree that it was a deeply offensive comment about Puerto Ricans, black people, Jews, Palestinians, and women. Good. By the way, they rallied Puerto Ricans across America. You know what Donald Trump said? No big deal. “Yesterday, last week, J.D. Vance said no more — it was his vice president, J.D. Vance, who called him Hitler. By the way, I wonder who said Donald Trump was praising Hitler. Do you want to?”
clock:
“Four-star General John Kerry. Do you know what Donald Trump said just in the last two weeks, the last two weeks of his campaign to unite America?” Ali asked. “It was another of Hitler’s lines that the people who opposed him were the enemies of the people.”
Mr. Ali highlighted Mr. Harris’ speech at the Ellipse on Tuesday night, noting the strong support from the thousands of people in attendance. But Mr Ferguson countered that his speech didn’t touch on “anything” that really mattered to voters, emphasizing their main concerns: the economy, inflation and immigration.
“Nothing that has just been said is of any importance to the people who are hurting and suffering in this country right now. Nothing that has been said has been consistent. “Nothing is said about the concerns of people in this country who are dealing with inflation, illegal immigration, convicted terrorists coming across the border, people convicted of murder and rape,” Ferguson said. spoke.
“There is no concern for the American people in your closing argument. This is why Donald Trump will win on election night,” Ferguson continued. “Because the only time you can speak up is if I disagree with you.” [say]”We’ll kick your ass.” By the way, this goes back to the “we hate you, lock you up” thing you guys are doing. we will lock you up. We put you in jail. ”
Following Tony Hinchcliffe’s comments at President Trump’s rally, President Joe Biden called Trump supporters “trash” in an interview on Tuesday, later addressing their “rhetoric” after facing backlash. He claimed on Twitter that he was. The incident follows earlier comments by Biden calling for Trump to be “locked up,” which Biden later clarified meant a “political” detention.
