Trump Retweets Racist 'White Genocide' Twitter Account
After months of echoing the聽American racist right鈥攑romising to catalogue all American Muslims, accusing immigrants of being rapists, proposing to build a wall covering the entire U.S.-Mexico border鈥擠onald Trump was caught retweeting a racist Twitter account.聽
Trump used his official Twitter account on Friday to retweet the account聽@WhiteGenocideTM. The account, which has claimed 鈥淗itler SAVED Europe鈥� and that 鈥淛ews/Israel did 9/11,鈥� is named after an increasingly popular racist idea that white nationalist have worked hard to push into the mainstream 鈥撯�撀爐he idea of 鈥渨hite genocide.鈥�
White genocide is an idea that white people, far from ruling most of the developed world, are actually being subjected to a genocide that will ultimately wipe out their race. In recent years, the idea has been spread through something known as the 鈥淭he Mantra,鈥� a 221-word聽attack on multiculturalism written by Robert Whitaker, a cantankerous segregationist making a presidential bid this year on the racist American Freedom Party ticket. The Mantra ends with the phrase, 鈥淎nti-racist is code word for anti-white.鈥�
Already, the Tweet has garnered considerable attention on the racist right. On Stormfront, the nation鈥檚 largest white supremacist website, the user Fading Light said, 鈥淸T]his is a GOOD thing. [Trump] willingly retweeted the name. The name was chosen to raise awareness of our plight. Helped propagate it. We should be grateful.鈥�
Another user on Stormfront, 鈥淒arkWorld423,鈥� said, 鈥淎 resounding applause to you, Herr Trump. And please pay no mind to the anti-White idiots insulting you.鈥�
