NEW YORK — Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.
They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
I’d love to say this surprises me, but it does not in the slightest.
Many of them are Bandwagoners desperate for any attention. They know they will get it if they call themselves MAGA and are willing to do whatever it takes to fit in. Even if it is takes being a Nazi. Even if they are not of Nazi blood or heritage. So many that align themselves with MAGA Nazis now will be the first the put on trains if given the chance.
