White House Makes Big Stretch Of A Claim Over Kamala Harris Comments

Kamala HarrisThe White House on Tuesday went full knee-jerk in responding to former Vice President Kamala Harris calling President Donald Trump a tyrant who’s akin to a communist dictator.In her MSNBC interview on Monday, Harris then asked business leaders to voice their resistance.The White House rapid response team, which attached a clip of her remark to a social media post on Monday, accused her of inciting violence.Appearing on Rachel Maddow’s show, the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee laid into her victorious Republican opponent.“Right now we are dealing with, as I called him at my speech on the Ellipse, a tyrant,” Harris said. “We used to compare the strength of our democracy to communist dictators. That’s what we’re dealing with right now in Donald Trump. And these titans of industry are not speaking up. And perhaps it is because his threats and the way he has used the weight of the federal government to take out vengeance on his critics is something that they fear and I get that. ... We’ve seen the demonstration of it.”The White House revved up its hyperbole distortion machine, writing:SICK: Failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris is inciting violence on MSDNC, calling the duly elected President of the United States — who escaped two assassination attempts — a “tyrant.” SICK: Failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris is inciting violence on MSDNC, calling the duly elected President of the United States—who escaped two assassination attempts—a "tyrant.""...Communist dictators—that's what we're dealing with right now in Donald Trump." pic.twitter.com/ETLYFycE71— Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) September 23, 2025Trump’s minions missed the mark but they may have helped Harris sell her new book, which is out on Tuesday.Related...UK Experts Accuse Trump Of 'Fearmongering' For Linking Paracetamol And AutismLabour Minister Rejects Trump's 'Unproven' Claim That Paracetamol Use Is Linked To AutismBBC Expert Reveals What Impact Trump's Team Think State Visit Will Really Have On President
