California Governor Gavin Newsom has sparked controversy by labeling former President Donald Trump a fascist on MSNBC’s “Inside”. Newsom described Trump as “weakness masquerading as strength” and a “broken person” who is “increasingly acting deranged and unhinged”. He emphasized that Trump’s rhetoric, particularly his 39-minute speech, has “mimicked” the behavior of authoritarian leaders.
Newsom acknowledged that the term “fascist” is “loaded” and may alienate some people, but he argued that it is a fair assessment based on Trump’s actions and words. He cited Trump’s statement that he would be a “dictator on Day One” as evidence of his authoritarian tendencies.
Newsom’s comments were endorsed by General Mark Milley, who reportedly shared his concerns about Trump’s behavior. The Governor’s statement has reignited the debate over Trump’s leadership style and the implications of his presidency.
