Trump Jr. compares modern-day DNC to 1930s Nazi platform

President Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr., said Wednesday that the modern-day platform for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) is "awfully similar" to the platform of the 1930s Nazi party.

"I've been hearing the left talking about these things - fascism, Nazism on the right - and when you look at the actual history and how these things evolved, and you actually look at that platform versus the platform of the modern left, you say 'Wait a minute, those two are very heavily aligned,' " the president's eldest son told conservative cable news channel One America News Network.

"You see the Nazi platform from the early 1930s ... and you look at it compared to the DNC platform of today, you're saying, 'Man, those things are awfully similar' to a point where it's actually scary," Trump Jr. continued.
