in protest over his alleged Nazi salute during

As a German I can say: there is nothing alleged. He did the Hitler salute at least 2 times.

Idk how people can even argue this. He did the nazi salute, it’s on video and clear as day. Now whether that’s what he meant to do I guess can be argued. Either way, you on the world’s stage representing the U.S, you have to realize what you’re doing and not do a fucking nazi salute. Idk how anyone can defend him for that.

he did it, then he did it again to make sure there was no mistake.

that's how many nazi apologists are in the media that even he knew nobody would take it seriously if it only did it once. billionaire media is rightwing fascism. ignore your local news station.
