I think, first of all, I don't know John Kelly, but I agree. I think he's an honorable person. His family and his son certainly made the ultimate sacrifice for the country. So, he certainly earned an opinion here. And he's earned a political opinion. But I think like everything else with Donald Trump, opinions vary, whether you're coming out of the military or the private sector, or government or anything else.

And I agree that two weeks before an election will cause some people to look at this in a jaundice way, like, you know, you're trying to drop this here at the end. And there will be people who don't believe it, there will be people who refute it, and Donald Trump himself also refutes it.

I would just humbly submit to Mr. Kelly that if he's worried about Hitler, and he's worried about fascism, he ought to pick up the newspaper. There's thousands of Hitlers, running around this country right now, running around college campuses, running around New York City, chasing Jewish people around, blocking their access on college campuses. If you're worried about Hitler, and you're talking about Donald Trump, maybe open your eyes and take in what's happening on the American left in this country.

SCOTT JENNINGS, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL COMMENTATOR: It probably will shock Kamala Harris and the rest of her campaign staff to learn that there are incumbent Democrat, U.S. senators in this country right now running television ads touting all their work with this modern day Hitler.

SCOTT JENNINGS, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL COMMENTATOR:  

It probably will shock Kamala Harris and the rest of her campaign staff to learn that there are incumbent Democrat, U.S. senators in this country right now running television ads touting all their work with this modern day Hitler.

I wonder if Kamala Harris tonight in our town hall meeting will call for them to take these ads off the air, touting their work with this Hitler. I mean, if -- if he were really Hitler, if he were really a threat to democracy, not a single Democrat in this country would be running ads touting their work with Donald Trump.

Now I'm callous on this Hitler business because I live through the Bush years and I used to peer out my window onto Pennsylvania Avenue and I saw everybody marching around in their brown uniforms, signs up, Bush is Hitler, Bush is Hitler, and then they did it to John McCain, they did it to Mitt Romney, they've done it to Donald Trump, they even did it to Paul Ryan I recall at one point.

So I've heard it all before, and I think the reason Democrats are freaking out about it right now is because what they have learned is that it's not Republicans who are the Hitlers or the Nazis, it's actually emanating from within their own party. If you want to find Hitlerish, Nazist, antisemitic tendencies, look on the left, not the right.
