Richard Gere Compares Donald Trump To Benito Mussolini More and more people are opening their eyes to just how dangerous a Trump presidency could be for all of us. Actor Richard Gere compared Trump to Italian Fascist leader Benito Mussolini, and said that voting him into office would be a slippery slope into the deportation of Jews, Blacks, or anyone else the too-tan candidate deemed a problem for America each week… Via MailOnline : Richard Gere has branded Donald Trump America’s version of Mussolini as the Republican establishment’s campaign to stop him stepped into high gear. The Pretty Woman star said electing Mr Trump to be President would be a ‘slippery slope’ to deporting Jews and black people. Mr Gere gave his withering assessment of Mr Trump in an interview with the Evening Standard in which he branded him a ‘demagogue, a clown’. He said: ‘Here’s a guy who’s obviously Mussolini. How is it possible that people would be supporting this guy?’ Mr Gere said that under a Trump Presidency he will ‘get rid of Jews, the blacks’. He said: ‘Anyone that we perceive as a problem, we’ll get rid of. This is how it starts. Intelligent people aren’t seeing this – don’t make the mistake of thinking it’s just idiots who are backing Trump – this kind of thinking is a slippery slope’. Trump has already flirted with Mussolini and retweeted a quote from an account mocking the dictator which read: ‘It is better to live one day as a lion than 100 years as a sheep’. Sadly, Gere’s extreme assessment really isn’t all that farfetched. Trump has already garnered the support of known white supremacists, and we all have seen how it goes down at his rallies … WENN
