The way you wrote it, I am thinking that she was calling you and the protesters Little Hitlers, the way that some people will do a mock salute and Ja Wohl, mein Fuhrer. It was likely a well of feeling from being frustrated from having a rally and perceiving the cause to be the protesters pushing their own view, preventing the Trumpettes from having their own day in Illinois. I do think also, that not everyone attending goes for the most base reasons. So
some just want to see what the carnival show is like, they're curious. Others just don't want to be Democrats. So I think "'Bye Racists" just was inflammatory and threw fuel on the fire.
