        That's bizarre because rather than shocking it's almost exactly what I would expected a fear-mongering white supremacist to say.

        With malignant Trump as boss, his “hirlings” felt and feel free to let their own personal malignancies spew forth.

        Can we send every Republican candidate/congressperson to Western Europe to be interviewed about their prior statements? E.g. Roy Moore said there was Sharia "somewhere up north... Indiana or Illinois" and was never pressed on it

        It's was a complete lie. I hope they report this statement on Fox News. Because this bullshit belief is perpetuated by their propaganda machine.
