New York Governor Kathy Hochul Says Pro-Life Republicans Hate Women, “You’re Anti-American”
With a highly contentious election just around the corner, Democrats are continuing to use dire rhetoric against Americans for voting red. Late last week, New York’s Democratic governor Kathy Hochul, an ally of Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, told Republican voters, “You’re anti-woman, you’re anti-abortion, and basically you’re anti-American because you have just trashed American values and what our country is all about over and over and over.”
Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik (N.Y.) responded to Hochul, “First, they called us ‘Deplorables.’ Then, they called us ‘Nazis.’ Then, Joe Biden called us ‘garbage.’ Then, they said no ‘strong intelligent’ women support Trump.” She continued, “The Democrat Party led by Kamala Harris is an absolute disgrace as they smear American patriots who want to save our country by supporting President Trump and Republicans. Shamefully, the closing argument from Kamala Harris’ campaign is to attack voters. One of many reasons why it will be a losing campaign.”

Hochul’s comments follow weeks and even months of Democrats and their allies in the media attacking former President Donald Trump and his supporters as everything from a “threat to democracy” to “Hitler.” President Joe Biden made headlines when he referred to Trump’s supporters as “garbage” last week, calling Trump himself “un-American.” Harris has claimed that Trump secretly plans to “use the United States military against American citizens who simply disagree with him” in a speech last week, repeatedly called the former president a “fascist” during her CNN town hall event, and openly compared him to “Adolf Hitler” in a press conference.
Liz Cheney, a former Republican congresswoman who was voted out of office after voting to impeach Trump, recently called Trump a “dictator” and “a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant” after campaigning with Harris. Her remarks were in response to the former president suggesting that Cheney, whom he labeled a “war-hawk,” might be less inclined to support U.S. involvement in foreign conflicts if she herself had to do some of the fighting. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who famously lost to Trump in the 2016 presidential election, called the former president “dangerous” and claimed that he is “more unhinged, more unstable” than in the past.
Democrats, including Harris’s running mate and Minnesota governor Tim Walz (D), also compared Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally last month to a pro-Nazi event. Clinton and Democratic strategist James Carville further compared the Trump rally to a pro-Nazi event hosted in the same venue in 1939, prior to the U.S. becoming involved in World War II. Media outlets such as The Washington Post and MSNBC repeated the Nazi comparisons, with MSNBC actually playing footage of the 1939 Nazi rally while airing the Trump rally.
In the weeks and months leading up to the first assassination attempt against Trump, magazines depicted the former president as Hitler, newspapers likened him to the German dictator, Democrats and their media allies accused him of “echoing” and “parroting” Hitler and incessantly labeled him a “threat to democracy.” That particular label was repeated by Ryan Routh, who was responsible for the second assassination attempt against Trump. Following the second assassination attempt, the violent rhetoric continued, with U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo issuing a call to “extinguish” Trump and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) publishing a letter placing a $150,000 bounty on Trump’s head. In the wake of the first assassination attempt, roughly one-third of Democrats said that they wished the would-be assassin hadn’t missed. Following the second attempt, nearly a third of Democrats said that America would be “better off” if Trump had been killed.
Given the aggressive rhetoric used over the course of the 2024 election cycle, as well as the assassination attempts, a recent survey discovered that nearly two-thirds of Americans expect there to be violence on or following Election Day. At one of his final campaign rallies in Georgia, Trump declared to American voters, “We are one people, one family, and one glorious nation under God. We will never give in, we will never give up, we will never back down, and we will never, ever surrender.”
