Messages flashing across the screen include “Trump wins!!” and “Economy booms!” References to World War I are also seen among the headlines.
Although the word “Reich” is commonly linked to Nazi Germany’s Third Reich, the references in the video shared by Trump seem to be about the formation of the modern pan-German nation in 1871.
The 30-second video was posted on Trump’s Truth Social account while he was on a break from his Manhattan trial, where he faced accusations of hush money payments.
The campaign press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, clarified that the video was not created by the campaign team but by an unknown account and reposted by a staffer while Trump was in court.
Trump has been criticized for using language and rhetoric reminiscent of Nazi Germany, such as calling Biden’s administration a “Gestapo administration” and referring to immigrants as “poison” in the past.
In the video, there are headlines mentioning deportations of illegal aliens and the closure of borders, along with references to World War I events.
