Trolling, dog whistle, explicitly telling you what he is ... In this case it's all three.

I don't think he's trolling. I think he believes he's of superior racial and ethic stuffs.

He absolutely believes this. One of his sock puppet accounts on 4chan repeatedly identified him as a FREN, which is alt right troll speak for Far Right Ethno Nationalist.

Nobody gives a sieg heil with that kind of enthusiasm unless they actually believe what they're doing.

He does, but it’s also trolling. I thinks that’s what SP was getting at. They get off on owning the libs.

A white South African who believes in racial supremacy? Shocking!

Kidding on the square. You're telling a joke, but you mean it too. It has been a staple of right-wing plausible deniability for the past 30 years.

Another thinking to "Own the libs".

Joke is on them. Not one fucking Liberal gives a shit about Rushmore or anything else in South Dakota.

It's essentially like graffiti on Temple Mount.

Ive spent a LOT of time traveling and teaching in South Dakota. From one side to the other, I never saw one thing worth a second visit and that includes Rushmore.

Wait, is this Trump finally acknowledging climate change???

Not even the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally?

It's not just that. The whole idea of a united and powerful German people with a history going back to Charlemagne is devoid of history and is little more than mythmaking.

I heard someone once say that all the wars in European history was about what was Germany.

 

[ChapelHillSooner]

You know the videos where the US troops blew up the swastika in the Nazi rally ground?

Blowing up Trump’s face on Mt Rushmore would make quite the ending for the documentary of the fall of American fascism.

Btw, I always thought that the Russians did that and it was at the parliament.

 

[Mulberry Heel]

Trump's bragging about America needing to get bigger sounds eerily like a certain German political group claiming that Germany needed more "breathing room" in the 1920s and 1930s. He really does seem to want to bring back Manifest Destiny and American Imperialism.

William McKinley fought the Spanish-American War and gained us our first overseas colonies, and given his newfound love for McKinley maybe that's who Trump's trying to emulate. What he doesn't know (or likely care) about is that taking over the Philippines led to the Filipino Insurrection in which hundreds of thousands of Filipinos died trying to win their independence from the USA (and at least 12,000 US soldiers were killed crushing the rebellion). And it also led to all kinds of complications with Cuba which in many ways continue to bedevil us today.
