Reno Omokri, a former Nigerian presidential adviser, has revealed that the United States’ Republican presidential running mate, James David Vance, allegedly referred to the party’s presidential candidate, Donald Trump, as “American Hitler.”
Omokri said Vance has previously fiercely insulted Trump, and that he has never been a “guy” of the former president.
The former US president has picked Vance, an Ohio Senator, as his running partner for the November presidential election.
Reacting, Omokri said Nigerians should learn from Trump-Vance politics.
Posting on X, Omokri wrote: “Former President Trump has just chosen Ohio Senator James David Vance as his running mate. Please fact-check me: Senator Vance is a man who viciously attacked President Trump in the past. He said he was “a never Trump guy”.
“He called Donald Trump an “idiot.”. He urged Americans not to vote for Donald Trump and called Mr. Trump “America’s Hitler.”
“But today, he has been nominated as the vice presidential candidate under Trump and has publicly accepted the nomination.
“I urge everyone to learn politics from Trump and Vance. There are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. Only permanent interest.”
