‘Full Hitler’: Trump’s push for dictatorship to be focus of Biden campaign

President Joe Biden's campaign is preparing to run against Donald Trump as if the Republican candidate were Adolf Hitler.

CNN reported that Biden's campaign operatives are being careful to slowly increase the campaign rhetoric so voters do not get numb to the arguments that Trump is behaving like a dictator.

"[A]s some of the younger aides on Biden's reelection campaign have been grimly joking, it's about when to go 'full Hitler' – when the leading Republican candidate's speeches and actions go so far that the Biden team goes all the way to a direct comparison to the Nazi leader rather than couching their attacks by saying Trump 'parroted' him," the CNN report said.

Trump has joked that he would behave as a dictator on day one of his next presidency. And the candidate recently hinted on social media that his goals were "corruption," "revenge," and "dictatorship."

"You have this moment in the first quarter where he is continuing to go full MAGA extremist now in order to shore up support in his own base," a senior campaign aide explained to CNN. "While he may be successful in that effort, if we do our job, we'll point out that everything he's saying is extreme and unpopular."

The campaign aide suggested Biden's strategy would not change much even if Trump is not the Republican nominee.

"There's zero distance between these [GOP candidates] on the insane and dangerous worldview for which they're advocating," the senior campaign aide said. "Our ability to develop a contrast does not change based on who has the nomination at this point."
