In a recent report by The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg revealed that former President Donald Trump expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler's generals, stating, 'I need the kind of generals that Hitler had. People who were totally loyal to him, that follow orders.' This statement was reportedly made in a private conversation at the White House, according to two individuals who heard him say it. The report highlights Trump's growing obsession with dictators and his disdain for America's military. John Kelly, Trump's former Chief of Staff, confirmed these remarks, adding that Trump praised Hitler's generals. In the closing days of his presidency and the years since, Trump has become more enamored with the advantages of dictatorship.
