Former President Donald Trump on Thursday denied ever having said positive things about Hitler during his time in office, including that he needed “the kind of generals that Hitler had.”
“I never said that,” Trump said in response to a reporter’s question about an article this week in The Atlantic.
“I would never say that,” he added, directly denying the magazine’s reporting.
Trump went on to criticize the article’s author and the publication, calling it “a failing magazine.”
