Washington – Just days after Hillary Clinton criticized the Trump campaign for promoting groups and individuals associated with preserving “white identity,” Donald Trump Jr. has retweeted an adherent of the “alt-right” movement that Clinton singled out for criticism.

Donald Trump’s oldest son this week retweeted a post from Kevin MacDonald, a former professor at California State University Long Beach. MacDonald said last week that white people in America are becoming a victimized minority. He has been accused of anti-Semitism by critics, including the Southern Poverty Law Center.
MacDonald’s tweet had to do with Clinton’s State Department and perceived favoritism for UBS, a global financial services company that donated to the Clinton Foundation.
Trump Jr.’s retweet prompted Richard Spencer, a leader of the alt-right movement, to tweet “Wow. Just wow.”
Trump and Jr. can re-tweet and cleave to antasemitin all they want. Fact is, Trump has no ‘coat-tails’, as anyone connected to him loses big, as in GOP primaries yesterday, Christie the Whale, and the crazed Maine gov. All going down with the Trumptanic.
Why is this news? He didnt retweet anything racist. Its like if david duke likes pastrami then eating pastrami makes u racist.
I follow David Duke on Twitter, but I wouldn’t retweet anything he said. Duke is still backing Trump even though 3 of Trumps children are married to Jews. For him to overlook these marriages Duke must be a firm believer in whatever it is that Trump stands for.
