In reply to the discussion: Donald Trump's "Star of David" Hillary Clinton Meme Was Created by White Supremacists [View all]Her Sister
(6,444 posts)11. WoW! Can this human be more of a dumbass!! Could he be more Blatant!
On Sunday, Mic discovered that Donald Trump's Twitter wasn't the first place the meme appeared. The image was first featured on /pol/ an Internet message board for the alt-right, a digital movement of neo-Nazis, anti-Semites, and white supremacists newly emboldened by the success of Donald Trump's rhetoric as early as June 22, 2016, over a week before Donald Trump's team tweeted it.
No dog whistles anymore. He is out of control. At the same time he is normalizing Racism and Racist Groups. That is an awful legacy that might stay with us even after Trump is gone at the end of the year! He's woken a dormant virulent-virus!
