My mom (devoted Trump follower) tried to say that he was just waving to the crowd. What will it take for these morons to believe that this is a Nazi salute?

I think most of them know what he is doing and are covering for him. They don't argue in good faith.
They know.
Wow... When a Nazi finds something too Nazi, you know that something is pretty damn Nazi...
Naaah, reckon he left because of 'opticts'. Sure he got a bit excited, though
"optics"?? He's complaining cause he didn't see it well enough?
The French are, understandibly, less willing to overlook Nazism than anglophones.
Then again, no one should be overlooking Nazism.
Which salute.....there have been three.
It is odd that it wasn't the first one that stopped them.
He just wanted to see "fewer".
The Steve Bannon salute shown here.
The Nazi salute referenced in the article.
They were fine with Musk's first two.
They didn't like when Bannon did it tho, which is when this statement was made.
Then there's already been a third person doing it.
How many sigs does it take to get to keep a fellow far right shit away from CPAC?
Ah, one,
Ah, two,
Three!
Ah, two,
Bless you!
The world may never know…
3?
Thank you :(
Just saw after posting, still had it up (out of order, also m/dd/yy):
“Elon Musk, Trump inaugural event, 1/20/25.
Steve Bannon, CPAC, 2/20/25.
Mexican actor Eduardo Verastegui, CPAC, 2/21/25.”
Thanks for pointing out the names, too!
Sad times, these
Why are they still even trying to hide it? Just do it, you fascist pussies.
