Yes they do, Donnie
The fact that I know what it is proves you a liar, HO.
“Nobody even knows what it is, and she didn’t know what it was. This is a term that was just given,” Trump said when CNN’s Anderson Cooper asked if he embraces the alt-right.
She did a pretty damn good job explaining it yesterday.
“There is no alt-right or alt-left. All that I’m embracing is common sense.”
Cooper then noted to Trump that Steve Bannon, a Breitbart executive who now serves as the Trump campaign’s CEO, once said that Breitbart News is "the platform for the alt-right."
“I don’t know what Steve said,” Trump said in response. "I can only speak for myself."

Going to be an interesting day.
Trump may not have known explicitly but he certainly picked up their dog-whistles and mega-phoned them.
This is the first time that I can remember him describing any group without saying “I love the ______. It has wonderful, hard working people. They love me…”
This suggests that he knows exactly what the Alt-Right is.
“Nobody even knows what it is, and she didn’t know what it was. This is a term that was just given,” Trump said when CNN’s Anderson Cooper asked if he embraces the alt-right. “There is no alt-right or alt-left. All that I’m embracing is common sense.”

“I don’t know what Steve said,” Trump said in response. “I can only speak for myself.”
I have to give Trump credit. He can pivot from one bullshit position to the exact opposite in a matter of a sentence, and he doesn’t bat an eye.
Even more absurd was former senator Tom Coburn on MTP Daily yesterday, He said the Alt Right is inconsequential then touted his plan to have the states “amend by not really amend” the Constitution using the 5th. A position supported by the Alt Right/Breitbart.
Not one prominent Republican has spoken up to defend him after she shredded him yesterday. “Crickets,” as James Fallows pointed out. If you ask me the triage phase began some time ago. Like in a crowded combat hospital, they’ve decided he’s hopeless and wheeled him out into the hall, so they can get to work saving the ones who have a chance. He can keep lying and lying but people are making up their minds on the vast preponderance of evidence and the clownish, transparent manipulativeness he exudes like radioactivity.
They know now, Donald. Terrible comeback. Sad.
Why didn’t the alt-right tell HO that they’ve voted him #1 fan boy? Don’t they do ribbons or trophies?
Well, Donald, apparently a lot of people in this country DO know what the alt-right is, and if they don’t, the Clinton campaign is going to try damned hard to educate the rest of the public, especially those murdering and raping Messicans that you and Breitbart love so much and those black people that you are going to get 95% of the votes from anyway and all those stupid women who won’t vote for you because they see what a worthless piece of shit you really are.
This ain’t going away, Donald. Have fun trying to scrape the Breitbart white off of you. Try some of that new Clorox Klan-Be-Gone.
Tellingly, nor has any Republican leader made any comments on Hillary’s epic speech. Just where do they come down on this critical issue? How can they still support Trump?
Nobody even should know what the alt right is. It’s Donald Trump’s fault that we do know. He’s like the colon prep of the GOP, expelling every last nasty turd in one giant eruption after another.
Let’s spell it out for him: The “alt-right” are all of his bigoted, WHITE supporters who can’t stand the idea of losing their privileged position as the majority of voters in this country. They are insane, prejudiced and many of them are armed. They represent the most imminent danger to our democratic republic and our country. If he doesn’t know who they are, he is more ignorant than I thought. If not, he’s the world’s biggest liar. Either way, he’s not going to win the election in November, because his “base” is dying. Buh-bye, you grifting scumbag.
Shorter Drumpf: Dog whistle? I don’t even have a dog. What do I need a dog whistle for?
Exactly same was the case after her foreign policy speech – radio silence. And both then and now, we see Trump badly rattled.
When I see how this is all shaking out, all I can think of is that saying: “It Hurts Too Much To Laugh, I’m Too Old To Cry.”
