Recently, President Joe Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, said Biden thinks former President Donald Trump is a fascist. This comes after Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, described Trump as fitting the general definition of a fascist. Jean-Pierre was clear, saying that Trump's own words, like wanting to be a dictator on day one, support this view.
This isn't the first time Biden has talked about democracy being at risk. But this time, it's one of the strongest statements against Trump from the White House. Some might think this is Biden's way of speaking more openly as his term winds down.
Vice President Kamala Harris also agrees with this view. She said Trump's actions and words show signs of fascism. This is all happening as the upcoming election is only a few weeks away.
