A Legitimately Sinister Figure?
Why has former KKK grand wizard David Duke decided to get back into politics? Because he sees something in Donald Trump that excites him.
It's not a common thing for Sempringham to refer you to a "conservative" web site, but Ben Shapiro, former editor-at-large for the Breitbart web site knows Steve Bannon, Donald Trump's new campaign manager. He thinks we should be concerned about the next couple of months.
Under Bannon's leadership, Shapiro says, Breitbart "has become the alt-right go-to website, with Yiannopoulos pushing white ethno-nationalism as a legitimate response to political correctness, and the comment section turning into a cesspool for white supremacist mememakers."
I don't think Breitbart OR Ben Shapiro are usually worth reading, but this and this are exceptions.
