Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden compared President Trump to Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels Saturday, accusing the president of lying about his record to the American people. Speaking to MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle, Biden said Trump has tried to reenforce the false notion that he is a socialist to hurt his standing with moderate swing voters, particularly in the battleground state of Florida.

He add that the GOP has struggled to effectively label him in the home stretch to Election Day. “I’m not sure anybody hasn’t already made up their mind if they’re for Trump. But who knows. He’s sort of like Goebbels. You say the lie long enough, keep repeating it, repeating it, repeating it, it becomes common knowledge,” he said. Goebbels is notorious for being one of Adolph Hitler’s closest associates and ... Nazi Germany’s propaganda minister.

The former vice president expressed optimism that voters will see a clear contrast between him and Trump, pointing to a peaceful protest over police brutality outside the White House. The protest was broken up over the summer after chemical agents were deployed to pave the way for a photo op for the president.

“I think people see very clearly the difference between me and Donald Trump. Trump is clearing protests in front of the White House that are peaceful with the military. This guy’s more Castro than Churchill,” he said.
