White Supremacists Neglect Their Own Presidential Candidate To Back Donald Trump March 5, 2016 2:23 pm RL

But remember kids, it’s not fair to point this out… we are supposed to remain silent and not call a bigot what he is…

WASHINGTON — Robert Whitaker, a lifelong segregationist who says racial diversity will lead to “white genocide,” is frustrated. He’s worked hard to promote his candidacy for president on the white nationalist American Freedom Party ticket. He wrote robocall scripts, sold bumper stickers, and vainly tried to get “White Self-Hatred Is SICK!!!” posted on a billboard in Nevada.

But the leaders of Whitaker’s party have been neglecting his campaign so they can back a rival candidate: Republican front-runner Donald Trump.

Whitaker said he’s not mad that his allies are backing Trump — he offered in December to quit the race if Trump “sticks to his guns.” He’s just upset that they’re doing it without him.
…
Reached at his Los Angeles law firm, Johnson, who once proposed a constitutional amendment to revoke citizenship of non-white Americans, said he never planned to back a candidate from outside the American Freedom Party.

“When Donald Trump first announced he would run for president, my view of Trump was ‘he’s a scoundrel.’ But then he started talking, and I realized that I liked what he was saying. I decided to tailor my approach to promote Donald Trump.”

Early this year, Johnson and Taylor recorded a pro-Trump robocall that was sent to voters in Iowa. “We don’t need Muslim [immigrants], Taylor said on the robocall, “we need smart, well-educated white people.”

After Iowa, Johnson kept at it, paying for calls in New Hampshire, Vermont, Minnesota and North Dakota. A round of calls went out this week to Idaho, which holds a GOP primary on March 8, and to Utah, where voters caucus on March 22.
