They are your people because your interests align at the intersection of who you vote for in major elections. On any other day sure you don't want white supremacists in charge. But on election day, a Trump vote is a white supremacy enabling vote. If he endorses people who are friendly to white supremacists and you vote for him or them - you are enabling white supremacy. They are using you, Chico, whoever. As soon as you stood up against them and their beliefs you would be ridiculed for not being united against the left - and they would make it clear you are a RINO and not welcome in their club - which is now being enabled by people as high ranking as the lieutenant governor of Idaho. How long before this goes national?
You are absolutely correct, white supremacy is not new, we had a nice period where it was fairly dormant. But they changed their tactics, learned to speak in code and are now being promoted by the highest levels of the Republican Party. Stephen Miller and Tucker Carlson have/had white supremacists on staff. Who does Miller work for? Remind me again.
