Holocaust survivors demand an apology from Harris for comparing Trump to Hitler, citing his ‘murdered’ parents

Jerry Wartski, a Holocaust survivor, has issued a strong condemnation of Vice President Kamala Harris for her recent comments comparing former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler.

Jerry Wartski, a Holocaust survivor, has issued a strong condemnation of Vice President Kamala Harris for her recent comments comparing former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler. Wartski, whose parents were murdered during the Nazi invasion of Poland, expressed his outrage at Harris’ characterization of Trump as a “fascist.” In a nearly two-minute video shared by the Trump campaign, Wartski showed off his Auschwitz prisoner number tattoo, a harrowing reminder of his family’s tragic past.

Personal reflections on tragedy

In his impassioned remarks, Wartski emphasized the seriousness of Harris’ comments, saying, “I know more about Hitler than Kamala will ever know in a thousand lifetimes.” He recounted the painful memory of how the Nazi regime invaded Poland when he was just nine years old, resulting in the loss of his parents and most of his family. Reflecting on this trauma, he said, “Accusing President Trump of being like Hitler is the worst thing I’ve ever heard in my 75 years in the United States.” Wartski called on Harris to apologize to the families of Holocaust victims, arguing that her statements perpetuate a false narrative that diminishes the atrocities committed during that time.

Praises Trump’s integrity

Wartski did not shy away from voicing his support for Trump, referring to him as a “mensch,” a Yiddish term meaning a person of integrity and honor. He expressed his belief that Trump would never engage in the kind of behavior associated with Hitler, saying, “I know President Trump and he would never say this, and Kamala Harris knows this.” Wartski highlighted Trump’s unwavering support for Israel, noting, “Everything that he has done up until now was for (Israel’s) benefit. He never double-crossed anybody, and he never showed any weakness.”

As honorary president of the Israel Heritage Foundation, Wartski emphasized the importance of recognizing leaders who stand by the Jewish community. He questioned why Trump, who has shown such commitment, should be criticized. “Why should President Trump pray for the hostages at Ohel and associate with so many?” he asked. Wartski concluded his remarks by affirming that Trump has always been a staunch ally of both the Jewish people and the State of Israel, reinforcing the need for a nuanced understanding of political rhetoric that draws such serious comparisons.

Wartski’s statements not only highlight the personal impact of historical events but also underscore the importance of accurately representing these events in contemporary political discourse. His call for accountability serves as a reminder of the weight that historical comparisons carry, especially for those who lived through the horrors of the Holocaust.
