And if there was any doubt that Trump was a white supremacist at this point, here’s your answer.
Even if you were inclined to to give him the benefit of the doubt over Kanye (maybe, just maybe, he was more interested in his work as a musician than his anti-semitism; it’s a stretch, but it’s theoretically possible), bear in mind that for Nick Fuentes, his entire fame is due to his saying shit like this on the Internet and apparently believing it to the extent that he’s started up his own movement devoted explicitly to getting the GOP to say the quiet part out loud and with a giant-ass bullhorn. Hell, the clips that Rachel Maddie showcased are actually some of the tamer shit I’ve heard out of Nick Fuentes’ mouth. It’s impossible to separate his fame from these publicly-expressed ultra-far-right views.
And this is the sort of person that the front runner for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination wants to associate with.
