5. Here is a great article on Bob Kroll

Bob Kroll sat down with a local Jewish activist. It didn't go well.

To see Bob Kroll stumping for President Trump on Fox News, and at the rally, and the union selling shirts promoting the message police in Minneapolis are for Donald Trump—that sent a chill down my spine," Stern says.

Trump's rhetoric, policies, and presidency in general are a threat to religious and ethnic minorities, Stern says, a catalyst for white nationalist activism, even violence. Domestic terrorists had shot up a synagogue in Pittsburgh and another in California, and Stern sees a "direct and frankly unavoidable link" between Trump's election and a rise in hate crimes. (He's not alone.)

Trump "emboldened" the Nazis

America fought a war against the Nazis and supposedly won.

Yet here they are marching to "take back America".

When did the Nazis have America?

" Michael Von Kotch, a Pennsylvania resident who called himself a Nazi, said the rally made him "proud to be white."

He said that he's long held white supremacist views and that Trump's election has "emboldened" him and the members of his own Nazi group. "

extrajudicial violence at the cop crowd at the event lapping it up. He owns it.

This needs to go into an ad. I do not understand why we let this drop.

Ears look different, face is thinner, and Chauvin looks younger than the man pictured with trump.

And we do this far too often. Must be a MAGAt. Find someone who looks sort of like him in a compromising photo. Make it go viral.

He's a murderer, and for all we know he does support the asshat, but I don't think this is him.

I don’t think it’s him....ears on killing video is different. There’s more differences to my eyes, but coffee calls.

Also, if you search “chauvin” in google, you can see other memes trying to tie Chauvin to someone else wearing a MAGA hat. That person isn’t Chauvin either.
