Guess Who's Blowing The Trump-et?


As the New Hampshire primary approaches, Republican candidates are making an all-out push to win or make a respectable showing to build momentum.  For narcissistic xenophobe Donald "Rump" Trump, who's currently in first place in the polls, that "all-out push" includes some robocall "help" from some skeevy "white nationalists." Here's info on the leader of one of the groups:
"Jared Taylor, online editor of AmRen, the media outlet of the white nationalist group called American Renaissance, is one of the voices on the robocall. Taylor is also spokesman for the group the Council of Conservative Citizens, which is widely considered to be white supremacist group, though they call themselves a 'white rights' group on their website. The group dates back decades and inspired Dylann Roof, who last summer confessed to shooting and killing nine people at the Emanuel African Methodist Church in Charleston, South Carolina." (emphasis added)
An excerpt of their robocall message doesn't leave much to the imagination either:
"....I’m Jared Taylor with American Renaissance. I urge you to vote for Donald Trump because he is the one candidate who points out that we should accept immigrants who are good for America. We don’t need Muslims. We need smart, well-educated white people who will assimilate to our culture. Vote Trump.

I am William Johnson, a farmer and a white nationalist. Support Donald Trump. I paid for this through the super PAC..."
Rump's campaign disavows "endorsements" from these groups, but his xenophobic and often racist rhetoric has clearly resonated with these fringe elements.  Or, you could say that they've heard the Trump-et's call (hat tip to our beloved "D").

BONUS:  So, basically this is the Stormtrumper demographic we're talking about here.
