    Yes, these Nazis support Trump, I can provide dozens of links where these Nazis have DIRECTLY supported Trump, can you do the same with Antifa supporting Hillary or any Dems? Simple challenge.

    What is certain is:

    Not all Trump voters are racists, but all racists voted for Trump.

    Here is where the data falls off for me. It would not surprise me one bit to learn that many democrats are closet racists also. The difference is who they aim their racism at. Also, the democratic brand of racism is closer to tribalism than the republican brand.

    In my experience, I have met more hard-core republican racists than democratic ones. It seems strange to put racism on a scale. I am just pointing out what I have experienced, not hard data. By hard-core, I mean that they believe in genocide, inferior/superior races, segregation, etc.

    Also, while Trump may denounce the KKK and the Nazis, you don't typically see democrats having to denounce these same groups. At least I can't think of any. That alone should make it clear that the perception that Trump is racist isn't an illusion!

    I think the hard part for republicans is they see lots of things they like about Trump, but not necessarily his racists tendencies. So they are left in a state of contradiction.

    Right, the argument they use that republicans aren't racists is a red-herring argument. If you restricted your arguments to just EliteTrader republicans, on the racists scale they would be:

    EliteTrader republicans are Flaming racists of the first kind!

    And yet you can't even acknowledge that most KKK members are Democrats. Even in the modern era. KKK members ran as Democrats for public office in our state in 2010 and 2012. At least in the 2012 election cycle the state Democratic party denounced these candidates after lots of media pressure.

    All I hear is crickets from you when it comes to acknowledging reality. And the sad reality is that there are just as many racists on the Democratic side of the aisle as the Republican. And yes, the Democratic party includes people supporting traditional white nationalism as well.

    Exactly, Obama being the Democratic leader is what really propelled these KKK members to be part of Democrats. Some troll runs on the Dem ticket and loses badly is evidence that Democrats are KKK, while Nazis openly supporting and getting support from Trump isn't evidence of anything.

    Your version of reality is a joke, to even think that a party full of minorities is preferred by Nazis is the dumbest thing I read all day and I have already read jem's responses in the climate thread.

    Let's start with the most recent example of a Democratic state house legislator with KKK ties and then we can just walk back to the 1990s from here...

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...use-candidates-scuffle-at-local-festival.html

    "A witness told the Bladen Journal that Democratic candidate Tim Benton was trying to confront Republican Brenden Jones at the annual Beast Fest in Bladenboro.

    Woody Hester told the paper that Benton was accusing Jones of being behind fliers linking him to a white supremacist group."

    "Mr. Benton kept nudging him with his shoulder the whole time they were walking across, and then he just stepped back and little and coldcocked him," Hester said.
    .........................
    According to a 1994 Fayetteville Observer article, Benton was accused of being involved in the distribution of Ku Klux Klan applications at a local school.
