CNN commentator Scott Jennings likened pro-Palestine protestors to Adolf Hitler amid reports that former President Donald Trump allegedly praised the Nazi leader.

It comes after the New York Times released audio of John Kelly, who served as Trump’s chief of staff, saying the ex-president claimed Hitler “did some good things.”

Abby Phillip played some of the audio on CNN NewsNight, which is when Jennings appeared to gloss over them and pivoted to the universities, which have become focal points of pro-Palestine activism in the wake of Israel’s brutal war on Gaza.
