Proud boys respond to Trump "Standing down and standing by sir,"

On the Proud Boys’ account on the social media app Telegram, the group appeared to take the statement as marching orders.

“Standing down and standing by sir,” the account wrote. The account then posted two videos of the answer, including one with the caption “God. Family. Brotherhood,” in which a man howled at the TV in response to Trump’s response.

Megan Squire, a computer science professor at Elon University who tracks online extremism, said that Trump giving the Proud Boys orders was their long-sought “fantasy."
