White supremacist slogan at Trump campaign event At a Trump/Vance campaign rally in Saginaw, Michigan, late last week,



Video from the event shows Trump supporters waving placards with the “Reclaim America” slogan behind the speakers.

Patriot Front, which specializes in spreading white supremacist propaganda and holding events where chino-clad masked men march around chanting and waving flags, portrays itself as a protector of “European heritage.” Leaks and infiltration of the group have revealed it is a hardcore racist neo–Nazi organization.
.
This week, the official Patriot Front Telegram channel proudly announced the Trump campaign had “adopted” the reclaim America slogan, posting: “The phrase "Reclaim America" is a well-known slogan of Patriot Front.

It remains unclear whether the Trump campaign is aware of this connection and PF's use of the phrase, especially since a simple Google search of the slogan will return a plethora of results featuring the organization.”

The Trump/Vance campaign did not respond to a request for comment.
