these white supremacists are republicans.
they are a real segment of the party and trump plays to them....they are his core base.
Off the cuff I'm inclined to agree with you dino. However I honestly don't think that the real Republican party are Trumpets of the current administration. I think the real Republicans went along with Trump because he was their best shot to regain power and thus, appoint judges galore and take "moral control" of the country. It backfired on them in a "yuge" way and now it's almost too late to do anything about it so they continue to roll along with him through every debacle he creates and every death he encourages through his rhetoric. The hardcore supremacists and their like arent' Republicans. They just align themselves that way because it is the closest thing to what they think and feel. Extremists on both sides will never change their stripes, but those on the left and right who lean even slightly towards the middle have to make their voices the loudest of them all. This country has never been in more dire need of a TRUE centrist than it is now. Hardline bullshit politics are wearing thin on the American public, the majority of which I still choose to believe is not of a "radical" nature. This country desperately needs a true independent or at least a voice of centrist reason to emerge from the existing parties. The great question is of course......."Where the hell is that person at?"
