    What exactly is the “context” for doing a full-on nazi salute? Other than to show everyone that you’re a nazi?

      He said the magic words “my heart to you” clearly clarifies that his salute was meant to be that, duh /s

      Heat of the moment, not everyone you don’t like is a Nazi

      At least those are the excuses I’ve seen

      It’s right out of Trump’s playbook. You do something outrageous and evil, with just a smidgen of deniability… it gets them attention. That’s what they crave, to lead the news cycle, to be hated by the left but maintain enough deniability that the center and right will still be on your side. This is Trump 101.
