    Yeah… Except I started out thinking he did do a Nazi Salute. I first saw a gif of only the salutes and I thought “no fucking way he just did that”. Then i saw a slightly longer video that had music over it or whatever and I was still very shocked but it really looked like he had just done two Salutes on live TV.

    Then I finally got home and was able to watch the full speech with original audio and most importantly all the context of the whole thing.

    As I learned more information about the situation I changed my stance. It’s ok to make a gut reaction and then reevaluate once you learn more info.

      How did you ever assume it was the nazi salute if you require hearing the “heil Hitler” in conjunction with the motion?
