I didn't watch the inauguration, but read the news this morning and ... sorry, GOP, but that was an unmistakeable Nazi salute.
And in case you thought it was a still shot, watch it live, and just listen - he even gave a little purposeful "umph" when he did it.
And he did it twice - so it wasn't accidental.
Well, what would you expect from a wealth-born South African who grew up during apartheid?
I guess some feel safe to flout that salute openly now.
And don't try to hand us that nonsense that it's the Roman salute - the Roman salute was open, relaxed fingers, rather than tightly together, and they did not hit their chest first.
And people born in the last century know exactly what that is - it's a Nazi salute - twice.
I cringe for still-living WW2 veterans.
I dare you to do that in front of a WW2 veteran, I bet they could still whup your ass.
And all he has to say about it is to retire the Nazi jabs because they didn't work during the election?
That doesn't mean it wasn't a Nazi salute - it just means he thinks people don't care.
He may not be wrong.
