'I'm Not A Nazi,' Trump Tells US Campaign Rally

By AFP

October 28, 2024

Donald Trump told campaign supporters Monday in swing state Georgia that he is "not a Nazi," pushing back on critics' accusations that the Republican is seeking to be an authoritarian American leader.

"I'm not a Nazi. I'm the opposite of a Nazi," Trump told a boisterous crowd in Atlanta, one day after he held a mega-rally in New York's famed Madison Square Garden that was widely condemned for racist remarks that his allies made during the event.

I'm pretty sure that actual self-described nazis don't support Trump or the republican party in general because of how they view "the Jewish question".

Not all white supremacists are nazis.

You had actual nazis like Richard Spencer supporting him in 2016. Maybe something changed since then, I'm not sure.

There was also the whole Charlottesville thing where you had a lot of Nazis there too, lots of Trump supporters.

Also Israel is an "answer" to the "Jewish Question", they like that Jewish people have an ethno-state.

Honest question as I genuinely don't know, but are guys like Spencer full on "Hitler did nothing wrong and the Holocaust never happened (but if it did they deserved it)" guys though?

Maybe I'm just expecting too much from the absurdly politically illiterate US populace lol

Spencer, as far as I know, yes. He held a small rally which he ended by declaring "Heil Trump" and doing the nazi salute.
