Fanatical Trump supporter and Nazi Richard Spencer, who is all about āSeig Heilsā and partying like itās 1933, hilariously misstepped this weekend when he got into a Twitter exchange with TPMSās John Marshall and Jason Kander.
Marshall was in the midst of a heated exchange with Spencer on Twitter when he tweeted this at the Nazi:
Which prompted Spencer to tweet āTomorrow Belongs to Meā from the movie Cabaret, in which a quiet day at an outdoor cafe is interrupted by Nazi ugliness when the thugs stand up and start singing spontaneously about their triumphant future and the fate awaiting all their critics.
A song tailor made, one would think, for the likes of Richard Spencer, who tweeted back at Marshall,
Only to be told by Jason Kander,
Jason Kander appeared this morning on CNNās New Day to talk about the exchange.
Asked about the popularity of his tweet by co-host Alisyn Camerota, Kander explained,
āWell, I didnāt really know what to expect. I just saw it and thought itās not every day you get to tell off a neo-Nazi so it seemed like a fun thing to do over the weekend.ā
Josh Marshall got the last word in, tweeting,
Asked about the rise in white nationalism and hate crimes, Kander said he would like to see Donald Trump āspeak out moreā and that the president āis in addition to being the leader of the governmentā¦is the cultural and moral leader of the country by positionā and weād like to see Trump āspeak out against hatred of all typesā¦in a wayā¦that it is really evident that it bothers the president.ā
Well, as they say, you can wish in one hand and **** in the other and see which one fills up first. As Kander said, āAmericans need to hear the president is bothered by it.ā But Trump is not bothered by it. He has made that clear with his own attacks on Jewish journalists and his response to questions about the rise of anti-Semitism since the election.
Spencer represents one of the few demographics still in Donald Trumpās corner, and Trump is catering to them and their white nationalist xenophobia with his executive orders. He is not about to call them to order and lose that support.

He maintains his own blog, A Heathenās Day, which deals with Heathen and Pagan matters, and Mos Maiorum Foundation www.mosmaiorum.org, dedicated to ethnic religion.
