I hate the guy with every fiber of my being, but this story has been probably the only one where I absolutely don’t care mainly because I know his base and I know how lazy and unprofessional his staff is. I’m like 90% sure this actually wasn’t intentional and they were too lazy to analyze the whole thing.
It IS troubling that all the Nazis that would make this content really like Trump…
Just like the $88 baseball.
Or the 1488 children lost.
Or the 14 word immigration statement.
Just one more in a long line of accidental nazi dog whistles.
The first two I agree thats very sus, but the last one i am a bit lost. And i know the dog whistles, just don’t know what you’re point out exactly.
It’s a fairly overt reference to the white supremacist 14 words phrase. See this medium article for a good explanation
This is a key aspect of Trumpism: it’s all about the grift and that means the shortest path to money.
There are local election candidates who have manages tonnecer post Nazi propaganda despite less staff and less financial backing. At a certain point it’s not just incompetence. Its willful. That point was passed during his term, not recently.
Its just a shame that so many can be willfully ignorant or brush it off as you are. It should be consequential. Its like social media companies saying they don’t have the funds to properly moderate with staff. Yet newspapers managed for generations. They seem to always have enough staff to take advertising money.
In this case its not turning a blind eye. Its magnifying damaging voices.
