White Nationalist Supporters Are Undeterred By Trump's Iowa Caucus Loss
The founder of a white nationalist super PAC that launched a robocall campaign for Donald Trump in Iowa is undeterred by his favored candidate's second-place finish, and plans to move forward with another robocall campaign to get out the vote for Trump in New Hampshire. William Johnson, chairman of the white nationalist American Freedom Party and founder of the American National Super PAC, told TPM in a Tuesday phone interview that he believes Trump is “well-placed to move forward in the other primaries.”
“We don’t need Muslims," Taylor said on the robocall. "We need smart, well-educated white people who will assimilate to our culture. Vote Trump.”
"People are angry, they're angry at what's going on," Trump said. "They're angry at the border. They're angry at the crime. They're angry at people coming in and shooting Kate [Steinle] in the back in California, in San Francisco. They're angry when Jamiel Shaw was shot in the face by an illegal immigrant. They're angry when the woman, the veteran, 65 years old, is raped, sodomized, and killed by an illegal immigrant.”
In a Tuesday phone interview with TPM, Taylor noted that Trump's explanation dovetailed nicely with the white nationalist views espoused by the super PAC.
“He didn’t put it in racial terms when he was asked to disavow the calls,” Taylor said. “He said people are furious about some of the immigrants who come in illegally and commit all sorts of problems. He is expressing sympathy not with the consciousness of race and the wish of whites to remain the majority; what he’s expressing solidarity with is the idea that we shouldn’t be letting in immigrants who are going to kill us and commit crimes. But in many respects it boils down to the same thing as a practical matter.”
