Thanks for adding to my store of knowledge, but I have an insurmountable doubt he was kidding or did not know what he was doing given the comments he made thereafter and his love of facists and other authoritarians in the US and everywhere.

Agree. Even if it wasn't what we think, he has made his position clear elsewhere so ...

Sandra, I usually am the first to give people the benefit of the doubt, but, having the "insurmountable doubt" that I do, I can't join your "Even if". He has the master of saying what he is going to do, what he thinks, what he plans, as his current useful idiot, teaching him, if he needs it, that is.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are saying. I'm just saying that I think he made the Nazi salute and I think he did it deliberately.

Sandra, I accept your statement that you think he knew what he was doing when he made the Nazi salute deliberately. In your previous post, you used the phrase "Even if it wasn't what we think...." which is what I was writing about. I have no doubt that he knew exactly what he was doing, did it deliberately and is jazzed about "owning the libs". You and I are on the same sheet of music, no doubt about that. Next thing you know, he will be parading around a stage in jackboots with a brown-colored shirt. Most of the Magats never really learned about WWII, who started it, how and, most importantly, why, so they will not get worked up about it, and he knows that, too.
