Dems and their slaves the media have elevated white supremacists to influential positions. Before, most people saw them as losers and clowns, as Steve Bannon referred to them.
Maybe, but they're an unbelievably small percentage of the population.
Regular people who don't believe in political correctness have been empowered, but they aren't white supremacists. They just feel like it's okay to speak their true thoughts and call out obvious BS.
The obvious lean towards saying yes was the original hiring of Steve Bannon. That in itself gave national prominence to the white supremacists, where a presidential candidate put on his cabinet someone from that belief system.
The demographics of Trump's victory do also raise an eyebrow. No one dreamed the rust belt would flip. And the stereotype of who voted for Trump could make people believe this was another door opened.
IMHO Trump has been the most unique POTUS in my 58 year lifetime. His voice rang out to people who somehow never heard the words of previous POTUS's or candidates. Trump has said so many things that to me are just curious, and his words can ring out to groups of people who the majority has tried to suppress.
I think Trump has given lots of groups podiums for voices who have been struggling to get them for a long time. I personally do not like some of these groups and wish they were still "buried". But at the end of the day this country spoke, not Trump. Trump just sold himself, that's all. And he targeted his groups with great accuracy, as the results have proven.
For starters, you have bought into the leftist narrative that Steve Bannon is a white supremacist because the left attempted to demonize him, so as to taint Trump for having put him into his cabinet. Then again in today's liberal PC view, anyone who does not conform to leftist ideology is automatically a ___ist, ___phobe, etc.
The funny thing about your post is that you do not seem to realize that most of the fringe groups in this country have been under the Democrats tent. They were there, but more or less under control of the asylum staff.
However somewhere along the way, the mental patients took over the asylum, and now the (D's) have kooks at the helm. Yet to cover that up, Democrats and their complicit arm of the MSM pretend it is the Republicans who have gone hard right, and then try to taint Trump because some loser like Duke endorses him. All the while ignoring how the communist party endorsed Hillary.
Be that as it may, we all have perspectives based on our own ideological proclivities, thus someone brainwashed by either extreme will view leaning one way or the other as radical.
The bottom line is that most Americans who believe in traditional values, religion and American culture voted for Trump. The fact that many were white should not come as a shock, nor imply some nefarious or malevolent intent behind those votes. America has been almost pure white since it's founding, and predominately so even today.
So while we voted twice for a person of color, going to back to a candidate who personifies traditional American values/culture does not equate to supremacist viewpoints.
No, no matter how much the left likes to say he does. What the left considers a white supremacist is just anyone who isn't a raging social justice warrior.
Maybe, but they're an unbelievably small percentage of the population.
Regular people who don't believe in political correctness have been empowered, but they aren't white supremacists. They just feel like it's okay to speak their true thoughts and call out obvious BS.
Uh yea, you always have been allowed to speak your mind, just don’t expect regular people to buy your BS.
No but the media has empowered hate groups like BLM
