WASHINGTON: Former US first lady Melania Trump pushed back on Tuesday against attacks on her husband Donald Trump, saying the Republican presidential candidate is “not Hitler.”
In an interview with “Fox & Friends,” Melania Trump also said her support for abortion rights was “not a big surprise” for the former US president, whose Supreme Court picks paved the way for the end of the national right to abortion. She said comparisons of her husband to Hitler were “terrible.”
“He´s not Hitler, and all of his supporters, they´re standing behind him because they want to see (the) country successful, and we see what kind of support he has,” she said. Trump has denied making the remarks and told supporters on Monday: “I´m not a Nazi. I´m the opposite of a Nazi.”
