      He reportedly did a tweet mocking people for calling him Hitler (which I saw elsewhere since I’m not a user of his site). Incredibly, of all people, the ADL also chirped out the same “it was an accident” line as the media.

          The Anti-Defamation League is an influential NGO that’s supposed to fight antisemitism. Probably because Trump has repeatedly shown a fondness for Netanyahu, they’re apparently throwing Jewish people under the bus to sweep this under the rug.

          *edit - Just occurred to me that might’ve been a joke. Doesn’t hurt to have this up for those who don’t know tho.

        What did he say? I only saw him reply to a tweet saying that accusing everyone of being Nazi is getting tired, but I didn’t see that he actually commented on the salute.

          Yeah i don’t think be ever explained what that gesture was supposed to be, he only retweeted posts and memes that were in his defense

          Edit: i just watched the full clip for the first time, i didn’t know he says “my heart goes out to you” after so i guess that’s his alibi
