Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr., D-N.J., blasted President Donald Trump for warning of violence if Democrats win the House, calling it "fascism in the flesh."
Pascrell's comments came in a Wednesday tweet.
"This is fascism in the flesh," he wrote. "This is the language of a fanatic that could be lifted from a tyrant's playbook. This is not a warning but an incitement. Unless we stand united against it."
Trump had told evangelical leaders on Monday there could be an outbreak of violence across the nation if the GOP loses control of one or both chambers of Congress in the November elections, NBC News reported.
