Idiots Fearing End of White Race On Verge of Ending GOP Instead
March 24, 2016

A new Bloomberg poll finds that Donald Trump has a 29 percent approval rate, which would make him the least popular major party candidate for president in the history of numbers.

But he’s unusually popular with a group of Americans who have long been ignored by mainstream politicians, employers and anyone who isn’t a probation officer — online white supremacists.

Earlier this year, within two days Trump retweeted two Twitter accounts proudly connected to the hashtag #WhiteGenocide, which was taken by many white supremacists as the best thing that has ever happened since vanilla Oreos.

#WhiteGenocide is the fear that immigration is part of a plot to wipe out the white race.

“Whereas the odd White genocide tweet could be a random occurrence, it isn’t statistically possible that two of them back to back could be a random occurrence,” Andrew Anglin, editor of everyone’s favorite white supremacist website The Daily Stormer, said. “It could only be deliberate…Today in America the air is cold and it tastes like victory.”

Maybe it’s a coincidence that Trump plucked two white supremacists from his millions of followers within a few days because he just happens to be very popular with white people who think white people in America having the most wealth, the longest life expectancy and 42 of the last 43 presidents just isn’t good enough.

But it’s still hard to explain what Fortune magazine has found using software to analyze which Twitter accounts are the most impactful users of the hashtag #WhiteGenocide.

“Since the start of his campaign, Donald Trump has retweeted at least 75 users who follow at least three of the top 50 #WhiteGenocide influencers,” Fortune’s Ben Kharakh and Dan Primack wrote. “Moreover, a majority of these retweeted accounts are themselves followed by more than 100 #WhiteGenocide influencers.”

And his campaign staff and official campaign accounts also “happen” to follow lots of very influential #WhiteGenociders. Whoops! That follow button is so big.

When your campaign mostly revolves around name-calling immigrants, listing foreign countries to be afraid of and accusing millions of Muslims – if not all 1.6 billion – of collaborating with a tiny group of terrorists that mostly targets Muslims, this kind of stuff is bound to happen.

And Trump’s appeal to those that few would dare appeal to, is why mainstream Republicans — the kind who refuse to go beyond bashing “Obamaphone” users and demanding useless drug tests to appeal to racists — fear that “the Trump brand could weigh on the G.O.P. for a generation.”

It’s a delicious irony that the guys who fear the wiping out of the white race could be the guys who wipe out the Republican Party.
