Rather a second string football player warming the bench at some junior college.

It's as if he were an over inflated version of Richard Spencer, haircut and all.

Richard Spencer, the carefully crafted face of the self-described alt-right, organized a conference of white-nationalism believers. (Linda Davidson/The Washington Post)
For the past half-decade, the haircut, when worn by hipsters, has been known jokingly as the Hitler Youth, at least according to a 2011 New York Times fashion article, because of its resemblance to the style popular during Germanys Third Reich. That off-color nickname, one assumes, started in a different political climate, when it seemed we could be a bit cavalier and ironic with such terminology. Back before we started seeing the haircut on literal white nationalists.
