Just a follow-up, that Trump not only refused to condemn white supremacy during the debate tonight, he told Proud Boys to "stand back and stand by."

To reiterate my original point, Proud Boys claim to not be for white supremacy.
It's of course possible they still are. But it makes this whole discourse pretty weird.
White supremacists often claim not to be for white supremacy, because it's not a good "look" in the mainstream.
But the Proud Boys absolutely are at the very least adjacent. With a decent dash of misogyny thrown in.
