Democrats Hit Trump With 'Hitler' Note On Arena During His New York Rally

The projection appeared on Madison Square Garden, where Trump was hosting a wildly racist campaign rally.

The Democratic National Committee is again targeting Donald Trump with projected messages, this time on an arena while he was holding a campaign rally inside. 

On Sunday, the former president held a stunningly hateful  rally at New Yorks Madison Square Garden, where speakers spewed racist vitriol and authoritarian rhetoric .

On the outside of the venue, a projected note read, Trump praised Hitler.

Other projections included Trump = Cheat, Trump = Unhinged and Trump = Unfit.

DNC spokesperson Abhi Rahman said it served as a reminder to voters.

We all see it, we all know it, Donald Trump is increasingly unhinged and seeking unchecked power to enact his dangerous Project 2025 agenda, Rahman posted on X , formerly Twitter. Thats why @TheDemocrats are reminding voters that Americans cant afford Trumps unstable and unwell behavior even at his own rallies.

It comes as the Republican nominee has used increasingly extreme rhetoric  in the final stretch of the race for the White House, and amid deepening concerns over his cognitive health following strange and erratic behavior  on the campaign trail.

Last week, his former chief of staff, John Kelly, came forward  to warn that he believes Trump fits the definition of a fascist and would govern like a dictator if elected.

He also said his onetime boss had praised Hitler to him more than once.

Democrats have employed the messaging tactic on multiple occasions during the 2024 campaign. Ahead of the Oct. 1 vice presidential debate in New York, the DNC trolled Trump  by projecting a barb from his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, onto Manhattans Trump Tower.

Vance on Trump: What an idiot, it read, referencing an October 2016 tweet  from the Ohio Republican.

In August, when the Democratic National Convention was set to take place in Chicago, the party projected anti-Trump messages onto his tower in Chicago.
