I've wondered why Trump makes an "okay" hand sign at times when there is clearly no logical reason why an "okay" would fit in that context.

Now we know the rest of the story.

When Richard Spencer, Milo Yiannopoulos, etc. flip this hand sign, they are not making a generic "okay" sign. We all know that.

Why Jack Breuer and Trump flip the hand sign is anybody's guess.

I'm guessing it's a wink at Trump's white supremacist base.
Your failure is noted and documented....GHQAIC



HAHahahahaahahhahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaa

It seems that it's obvious only to you, so you will have to tell the rest of us.

I had to look up dog whistle call outs. I honestly never heard of them before. Im not sure I believe that Trump is smart enough to know how to do it. That and I think it fairly obvious that Trump doesn't care who he offends so why bother with secret handshakes, code words or sign language?

Looks like an okay sign to me, but unhinged Libs see what they want to see.

actually in brazil, iran and many places in europe the gesture is the equivalent of the middle finger.

interesting debate. so, we all agree that the most common meaning of the gesture is simply "OK" ( oll's korrect ) but could the gesture also be....:

A): a white supremist "dog whistle" gesture for "white pride/power"?

B): a 4chan prank to make people think it's a gesture for "white pride/power"?

C): originally a 4chan prank that has been adopted by white supremists.

don't know. not enough evidence available that i've seen to tilt me in any direction. as for the intern, with the information given i'm apt to believe his explanation. if more information is revealed ( he is now under the spotlight ) that view may change.

HUM, when did that kooky hand-sign become a white-power thing?

Dude looks like some goof...just trying to be a comedian.

White supremacists are all cowards. They are always trying to disguise their signals and give lame excuses of why they support things like the Confederacy.. They like to hide their opinions and intentions because they are scared to get busted like grapes by real men...

Just like Progressive Socialist Antifa hiding behind their masks when they become violent and burn down buildings.

very true-

like the ghetto trash who settle chit with guns or at minimum 3 against 1; only 1 vs 1 If their opponent is obviously unable to defend themselves. Cowards come in all colors, shapes and sizes, mate.

This smart aleck claims dumb now, the old "I'm Jewish background" defense; being Jewish never prevents one from having white supremacist views, particularly of you can hide it.

Idiots like him undermine Trump.

That you think this is true as well as important is telling. He made the okay sign. Big deal.
