Security guards not allowing MAGAs to do that finger pointing salute at Trump rallies now:



The man in this photo held up 1 finger and told me he meant it as a WWG1WGA sign - and then the security guard in the next photo told him to take it down.

He was furious “thats my Constitutional right!” the man in the crowd told me after I saw that interaction happen.


Yeah the optics didn’t look too swell and went viral when they all did it the last time. I guess they didn’t like being compared to Hitler

In fact, he should be allowed to do the full hand salute if he feels like it.

I don't know why security would be offended. Let these Nazis do their thing.

But the security guards are paid by people who don't want the world to see that.

Which is also cool, since they'll fall to fighting among themselves.

“No Nazi salutes” said the head Nazi at a Nazi rally bearing his name.

Right. It’s an appearance problem, not a Nazi/fascism problem.

I see. Even though Donnie wants to be a totalitarian dictator in the worst way, like his pals Vlad and Kim, if he doesn't allow the Nazi style salute at his rally's, we won't know what he's up to. Makes sense, using Orange hair and caked on make up logic.

Bet there are DoJ analysts who love them too because it makes them easy to identify.

Those right wing losers paid to get in there and should be allowed to do as many nazi salutes as they want.
Now don't yuns be a bunch of sheep. You go ahead and salute all you want. This is Merica after all
