Reminder that the alt-reich are some of Trump’s most ardent defenders. (He never denounced them.)
Trump didn’t renounce Spencer and Obama didn’t renounce Farrakhan. Both are wrong.
Total false-equivalence. Obama never associated with a black supremacist outlet like Trump has with the alt-right (Brietbart and InfoWars). Trump even implicitly defended the worst of the alt-right by refusing to condemn the Nazi rally in South Carolina where a counterprotester was murdered and another twenty were injured by an alt-right terrorist. This absolutely is whataboutism. Who cares that Obama didn’t denounce someone significantly less dangerous a decade ago? It’s irrelevant to the conversation about Trump’s courting of the alt-right. And by the way, Obama never once tried to court the “anti-white” vote the way Trump courted the racist vote.
