Donald Trump's social media account removed a video showing fake headlines that mentioned a “unified Reich” if he wins the 2024 US election, as President Joe Biden accused his election rival of using “Hitler's language”.
Mr Trump's campaign blamed an inattentive staff member for reposting the 30-second clip, which flashed a series of fictitious news stories painting a picture of American prosperity, with one including the term normally associated with Nazi Germany.
Mr Biden released a short clip of his own on X, in which he is seen looking at his phone and appearing shocked that the offending video had appeared on Mr Trump's official Truth Social account.
“Wow. A unified Reich? That's Hitler's language, that's not America's,” Mr Biden says.
The pro-Trump video was posted on Monday afternoon and was removed about 19 hours later.
“What happens after Donald Trump wins? What's next for America?” a voice-over asks in the clip as hypothetical newspaper headlines of “Economy booms!” and “Border is closed” are shown.
One headline mentions the creation of a “unified Reich”.
No direct reference to Nazis is made in the clip, but the word “Reich” is commonly used in reference to the Third Reich of Nazi Germany.
The “unified Reich” headline appears to refer to the 1871 unification of Germany.
In a statement, Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said the post had no official backing.
“This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a staffer who clearly did not see the word,” she said.
Mr Trump did not respond to questions about the video while he attended his historic criminal trial in New York.
The post comes as he has repeatedly sought to portray Mr Biden as failing to curb anti-Semitism in the US during a period of rising tension fuelled by the Israel-Gaza war.
But Mr Trump has repeatedly used racist rhetoric that carries clear echoes of Nazi ideology, including describing domestic opponents as “vermin” and immigrants as “poisoning the blood” of the US.

Pharaoh's curse
British aristocrat Lord Carnarvon, who funded the expedition to find the Tutankhamun tomb, died in a Cairo hotel four months after the crypt was opened.
He had been in poor health for many years after a car crash, and a mosquito bite made worse by a shaving cut led to blood poisoning and pneumonia.
Reports at the time said Lord Carnarvon suffered from “pain as the inflammation affected the nasal passages and eyes”.
Decades later, scientists contended he had died of aspergillosis after inhaling spores of the fungus aspergillus in the tomb, which can lie dormant for months. The fact several others who entered were also found dead withiin a short time led to the myth of the curse.

The more serious side of specialty coffee
While the taste of beans and freshness of roast is paramount to the specialty coffee scene, so is sustainability and workers’ rights.
The bulk of genuine specialty coffee companies aim to improve on these elements in every stage of production via direct relationships with farmers. For instance, Mokha 1450 on Al Wasl Road strives to work predominantly with women-owned and -operated coffee organisations, including female farmers in the Sabree mountains of Yemen.
Because, as the boutique’s owner, Garfield Kerr, points out: “women represent over 90 per cent of the coffee value chain, but are woefully underrepresented in less than 10 per cent of ownership and management throughout the global coffee industry.”
One of the UAE’s largest suppliers of green (meaning not-yet-roasted) beans, Raw Coffee, is a founding member of the Partnership of Gender Equity, which aims to empower female coffee farmers and harvesters.
Also, globally, many companies have found the perfect way to recycle old coffee grounds: they create the perfect fertile soil in which to grow mushrooms.
