If extrapolated to the entire US population, thats a larger population than the state of texas and close to the entire population of California that support a radical right wing movement. It looks like the lefts strategy of race conflict, tearing down white monuments , the browning of america massive illegal immigration and demographic displacement is having a great influence. Well done Antifa/BLM and left wingers

1 in 10 say it's acceptable to hold neo-Nazi views (POLL) - ABC News

Poll finds 10 percent of Americans support the ‘alt-right’


And the other 90% have either never heard of them, or realize that there is no such thing. The "alt-right" is something made up by leftists in the Democrat party and the media, desperate to find another excuse to call Republicans names after getting soundly whipped in the Nov. 2016 elections.

So assuming that republicans are roughly 50% of the country, that means 20% of their base think Neo Nazi views are ok...

but don't worry it is someone else's fault.

I think one of them called into a Conservative Talk Radio program today.

A guy who called in said that he didn't want to be around hispanics or blacks, and that he wanted America to be 'White European' and Christian... and the fact that it wasn't, was where our country had gone wrong.

False alt-right was initially adopted as a self descriptor by conservative groups, although I doubt many of them envisioned the crowd it has evolved to represent... sorta like the initial tea party groups were Ron Paul types, then they got co-opted later on.

Too late, OP already blamed the pseudo Nazi's in his party on BLM/Antifa in the opening post.

"In August. Steve Bannon referred to Breitbart News as "the platform for the alt-right"

That's really strange that Trumps main man in the campaign and his closest advisor for the past 7 months describes his own publication as being of this so-called "desperate" bent.

Liberal here. The alt-right has zero impact on my life, so I don't give a ****.

Why are people on both sides so obsessed with the alt-right? Both liberals and conservatives. Besides a bunch of idiots screaming racist and hateful things at their random "freedom marches," the alt-right is a big nothing burger.

Yes, what happened in VA a month ago was horrific. But other than that, the alt-right doesn't do much of anything. A bunch of angry white guys on secret internet forums that like to talk badly about minorities. Big whoop, who cares LOL.

Alt right I thought in the beginning was just an alternative to mainstream republicanism, but it seems to be more what richard spencer means and a racial movement and there is the "alt lite" , what the racialists call the civic nationalists .

There are right wing civic nationalists(multiracial trump supporters,militias,oathkeepers,proud boys,breitbart etc) and right wing ethnic nationalists(white racialist movement, daily stormer,charlottesville etc) and than you just have the deracinated emasculated mainstream republican party establishment(paul ryan,ted crux,Lindsay graham,romney, jeb,etc)

I think future election will be more interesting with nationalist/america first/populist candidates vs maintream globalist republicans than republicans vs democrats.most democrats are just like labour in england, a trainwreck
