About a dozen white supremacists chanted "Heil Hitler" and carried signs reading "White Lives Matter" during a march through downtown Howell last month. According to local media, another group of demonstrators shouted, "We love Hitler, we love Trump" from a highway overpass just outside Howell.

HOWELL, Michigan, Aug 20 (Reuters) - Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday attacked Democratic rival Kamala Harris' record on crime and safety, while brushing aside criticism from her campaign over holding an event in a Michigan town where white supremacists had rallied a month ago.

Catering to his base.

According to local media, another group of demonstrators shouted, "We love Hitler, we love Trump" from a highway overpass outside town.

A sure sign that you're on the right side when your fellow orange shithead voters equate him with the H man, but what do I know?

A Trump campaign spokesperson said the former president would make it clear in Howell that "crime, violence and hate of any form will have zero place in our country when he is back in the White House."

Oh wait, see? I was wrong.

Trump did not speak out against hate during his 45-minute remarks on Tuesday.

You don't say!!!!!

Trump did not speak out against hate during his 45-minute remarks on Tuesday.

And when he does "speak out" it's to tell them to "stand down and stand by" like good foot soldiers.
