In a Wednesday appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, former US Senator Claire McCaskill claimed that 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump is "more dangerous" than dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.
"Other people have tried to draw similarities between Mussolini and Hitler and the use of the terminology like vermin, and the drive that those men had towards autocracy and dictatorship. The difference, though, I think, makes Donald Trump even more dangerous."
"And that is, he has no philosophy he believes in. He is not trying to expand the boundaries of the United States of America. He’s not trying to overcome a neighboring country like Putin is in Ukraine. He is not going for some grandiose scheme of international dominance."
McCaskill claimed that all Trump wants "is to look in the mirror and see a guy who’s president. All he cares about is selfish self-promotion."
"That’s the only philosophy he has, which makes him even more dangerous, because he has actually said out loud that it would be okay to terminate the Constitution to keep him in power."
McCaskill, who served as a Missouri senator up until 2019, has frequently criticized Trump and the Republican Party on social media, writing in one Oct. 12 post, "The self centered ego of Trump has infected the entire Republican Party. Astounding they are unable to elect a leader at a time of national and international crisis. They are all focused on themselves instead of our nation. Why should anyone vote for them to lead? They can’t."
