Trump intern flashes 'alt-right' symbol used by notorious extremists during group photo with the president


[img][/img]

A former White House intern is coming under fire after flashing a known 'white power' sign during a photo-op with President Donald Trump.

Jack Breuer, who graduated from Emory University in Atlanta this year, is clearly bucking orders — personally given by the president — to give a thumbs-up in the picture that was taken in the White House in November.

While the other hundred or so interns smile and follow Trump's command, Breuer, a dentist's son who grew up in Chicago's western suburbs, stands stony-faced giving the 'OK' sign that has been linked with far-right groups.

It is the same sign that white nationalist Richard Spencer gave on the steps of the Trump International Hotel on election night and that right-wing provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos posed with in front of the White House.

1. wtf

is wrong with all those relatively normal looking people that they would allow themselves to work with DT...?

[lapfog_1]

2. For those who don't "get it"

The guy in the middle back row showing his right hand palm out is the nazi asshole.

The three non index digits form a "W" and the index/thumb closed as in "OK" also make a "p" (extended to the palm).

"Wp" or "White Power".

[EL34x4]

12. That's not a white power symbol. That's 4chan trolling.

14. That article does not convince me that the symbol he is flashing

has NOT been adopted as a nazi/racist WP symbol.

Maybe it started out as a trolling effort... but maybe they trolled themselves

[ornotna]

27. 4chan is infested with racists

So yeah, it is a white power sign. You think Richard Spencer is a 4chaner?

[ClarendonDem]

3. What's shocking about this

Is that it isn't shocking at all. This is what Trump supporters do.

[Corgigal]

4. Parents must be proud.

I would kick my grown kids ass if any of them did that crap. Genetics is just a lucky or unlucky draw, you didn't do a damn thing to deserve any special treatment.

[samnsara]

30. exactly what i was thinking!

[Sneederbunk]

5. Lucky he wasn't strangling people in the front row.

[gratuitous]

10. An odd grouping, that front row

All those folks just coincidentally clustered together.

[Wellstone ruled]

6. Same gesture used by the 3% Militia.

Trump uses the same gesture every time he speaks.

19. Right asswipe has done it hundreds of times and I don't

think it is just by accident.

[Wellstone ruled]

20. It's called Stage Craft.

Trump has morphed through the years into a self created Reality TV Star. Tom Burrdett's Creation.

[pangaia]

31. To me his looks different, a little dainty thingy...

He doesn't know he does it...
It's a tell.

[Wellstone ruled]

33. Donnie Two Scoops knows

exactly what he is messaging. He has practiced and maintain a certain Stage Image his whole life.

[pangaia]

34. I will happily stand corrected.

[Wellstone ruled]

35. He got elected President by a

fluke in our Constitution. Sad to say,he has zero clue what a President of the USA means. He just continues to be a self created Buffoon that is suffering some serious mental health issues.


Scary thought is,Nuke Codes,when will he go completely off the rails,the next ninety days are going to be one hell of spot in our Nations History.

[pangaia]

36. In my view the REAL problem is republicans and not just in congress.

Every last fucking one of them, from David Koch to the Secretary on my townhouse HOA Board.

[Wellstone ruled]

38. Sorry to here you have to

deal with a Koch. That is a smell that never goes away. And as far as the Rethugs go,hunch says,some of these people will need mega lawyers to keep them out of Prison.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

7. It's as if Washington is saying, "look at this asshole"

[ProudLib72]

13. I noticed that, too

It's like he's saying, "Here ya go, this is what the country has been allowed to come to". If people in paintings could shake their heads...

[Dave Starsky]

16. Ha ha! Yes!

Thank you for that, Father of our Country. We might not have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out!

[tanyev]

23. Or is about to deliver a well-deserved dope slap.

[Eliot Rosewater]

8. Well, because of

certain things that happened recently that I cant mention

NAZI'S occupy our White House and they are ACTIVELY trying to KILL us.

[Achilleaze]

9. This is the KGOP republican 'A-hole' Gang Sign

It's a way of letting other KGOP a-holes know that you are a KGOP a-hole in mewling, hate-drenched, subby service to Comrade Casino, the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief and the Bigliest republican A-hole of all.

[Sanity Claws]

11. Dead eyes and flat effect

go well with the nazi symbol.

[lpbk2713]

15. George Washington is saying ...

"Can you believe these assholes?"

[TeamPooka]

17. Fuck that Nazi asshole

[LuckyCharms]

18. Ha! Look at that shit.

[nolabear]

21. His facial expression is telling too.

In the midst of a bunch of smiling thumb-flashing interns he stares straight into the camera with a tight jaw and slit eyes. I don't know what it means but it sure isn't friendly. If someone was looking at me that way and flashing a sign I'd be pretty sure that sign wasn't "Howdy Neighbor!"

[Siwsan]

22. It is the sign for 'White Power'.

[img][/img]

[nolabear]

24. Yes I saw that.

[LisaM]

28. I know.....he looks empty inside.

And as if he's about to burst into, "Tomorrow Belongs to Me" from Cabaret.

[RandomAccess]

25. Stephen Miller did this too in an early photo from the WH

And I don't know if I agree that this isn't a White Power signal -- though it may be HALF of the WP symbol. Miller's was the OK plus 3 fingers extended (for the W) of his other hand).

[Golden Raisin]

26. He looks like he's going to grow up

into a Stephen Miller. The same dead eyes and general look of a stone-cold killer.

[pangaia]

29. Even more weird.. the rest of them don't even know how to give a thumbs up!

Look at those thumbs..

They look more like they are hitch hiking...

[Takket]

32. Washington gesturing in the background like......

"Can you believe this fuck wit? Look at him!"

[linuxman]

37. It's a trolling attempt to make people look like idiots.

Well done DU...

[Siwsan]

39. I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about

Are you calling ME a troll?

[linuxman]

40. No, I'm calling the originators of the meme trolls. You're just a mark.

41. It's late. I've been up for hours, so I still have no idea what you mean

Just like I have no idea what a "mark" is.
