Former President Donald Trump's account shared a video on social media Monday that referred to a "unified Reich" among possible developments if he were to win re-election in November, drawing criticism from the Biden campaign.
Trump's account posted a 30-second video to his Truth Social platform on Monday afternoon that asked, "what happens after Donald Trump wins?" and "what's next for America?"
The background is made up of hypothetical newspaper front pages with headlines including "BORDER IS CLOSED — 15 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS DEPORTED" and "ECONOMY BOOMS." Twice in the clip, slightly blurred text appears beneath the headlines that reads: "Industrial strength significantly increased ... driven by the creation of a unified Reich."
The post of the video had been deleted from Truth Social on Tuesday morning.
"Reich," meaning realm, kingdom or empire, is often considered to be a reference to Hitler's Third Reich regime that emerged in 1930s Nazi Germany — and its inclusion in the video was condemned by Democrats.
