Exactly! Lowry is playing dumb (or maybe he really IS that dumb) about the whole point of her request. She challenged the guy to put his gesture where his mouth is, so to speak. "You think it was just an innocent gesture? Then do it yourself, in front if the camera."
A failure of our education system. We don't teach critical thinking anymore. Nothing will get better until we start encouraging curiosity.
They thrive because of stupid people, and are doing all they can to keep them that way.
The Nazi salute is now the defacto sign to all those Republicans willing to support a rapist President where the norms of civilisation are set on fire. If Jennings was incorrect how come he could not look her in the eye and say "No I will not do that" Another TRUMP coward.
Trump whitehouse issuing one of those WW2 “ how to identify an axis plane” posters. But this time for exuberant salutes from Billionaires who support Nazi resurgence parties in Germany
Fucking deranged. She asked him to just do what Elon did. He refused. I would have, too! He wouldn't do it because he knew it was a Nazi salute. I wouldn't do it because I'm not a fucking Nazi.
Rich Lowry is the guy who was delighted back in 2008 when Sarah Palin winked at the camera during the VP debate. He gushed "Wow, did she just wink at me?" and went about how her beauty and charm sent little rainbows dancing all over the room. Yes, he's the type who thinks the stripper likes him.
It was a Nazi salute....they're openly doing the racism plus waving Confederate flags and naming bases after them (Lewellyn Chilson not good enough?) and were doing it when they depicted Barack Obama as a "spearchucker" and since Reagan gave his states rights sermon near Philadelphida, Mississippi.
She asked him to do the salute Musk did, she didn’t ask him to do a Nazi salute. She said if this was such a normal greeting, do it now. There is a distinction here this person seems incapable of making.
I confess, I've wondered from time to time about this particular troll. I see he's still the master of the self-own. Does he ever read what he writes before he posts.
Too many people are conveniently deleting Musk’s South African apartheid DNA from the equation…yup we know he is a kooky genius but he is also a complete Nazi by nature. Listen to his talks about ‘culture’ and birth rates. He is the real deal
Nah tbf he is responsible for great success. Look at #felon47 he was left money but he just kept running businesses to the ground and now does the same to America. Musk is an arsehole agree that did steal all ideas mostly financed and made success stories though.
Again and again, whether it’s a right-wing mob attacking Congress, or a fascist salute, Republicans are telling us we didn’t see what we just saw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN2gU0XU5FU
Perfect! Again, the sad fact is that this works on too many Americans b/c of Fox news and related lying/gaslighting media - keep resisting by challenging their BS narratives!!
You don’t need a salute to know someone is campaigning for an unabashed terrorist Nazi party in Germany & a jailed racist English nativist. We’re not the stupid ones. If you don’t see Musk’s Nazism you’re brainwashed or you’re a determined Nazi. It’s that simple. Either he goes to jail or we all do.
George maybe you could help me here! Watching CNN ! They said they don’t know if republican voters were upset after the freeze? The only reason the WH walked it back is because of push back from Governors!! It wasn’t Dem state Governors!!😂😂😂
My response to this idiot would be, "Oh, so then you agree that Musk WAS doing the Nazi salute." Honest to god, I've never seen a group of people get so entangled in their own god damn lies than these folks.
Same reason he stuttered like Porky Pig, turned red, and said nothing... those names he wanted to call her would've gotten him fired just as quickly as popping off a nazi salute on national television.
I'm really curious how Scott Jennings gets along at home. It prolly takes him an hour after getting home before he can answer truthful questions to his family like, "what time is it?". Wife gets a terrified look as she frantically tries to change all the clocks to whatever time he says...
Nah, tape went out years ago. Broadcast videotape cost a fortune, especially for 4K. And storage was even more expensive. It’s all on servers and high speed networks now
It is our friend. Was at a public tv/radio major station during the transition to digital. When memory cost a fortune and a terabyte server a luxury. Our tech VP was a major digital proponent, years ahead. I now have more storage hanging off my MacBook Pro than the entire station had. Incredible.
I’d prefer Scott do reenactment of the Musk gesture in Germany that’s viewed and recorded in a public place. I want to see how he likes German prisons.
Exactly. They deny that the salute Musk made is a Nazi salute, but when Jennings is challenged to make the same salute Musk did suddenly it's a Nazi salute.
Almost as good as the new press secretary saying that the Constitution is...get ready! UNCONSTITUTIONAL. What the actual hell is going on in their heads....I really think they are setting the stage to just toss the whole damn thing in the garbage, and write their own.👿👎
If it looks like a Nazi salute, the right-wingnuts all have Magagasms over it, it would get you arrested in Germany, and turdstains like Jennings refuse to do it on television, IT'S A FUCKING NAZI SALUTE!
I think I have figured it out. If you have over a billion dollars then it's not a Nazi salute. But if you don't have a billion dollars it is a Nazi salute.
Anyone trying to deny Musk did a Nazi salute has an agenda and looks foolish - the sad and befuddling thing about people like Jennings is that they don't know how foolish they look & really believe they can defend the denial (and defend similar indefensible BS - 2020 election deniers, anyone?!)
Elon needs to shore up his cred with the new-nutzies since he is being shred by Bannon, kept out of the White House West Wing, and was tied to that brown guy name Vivek who trashed American workers (who Elon booted out of DOG-E).
Scott Jennings made a convincing argument that the Republican party is endorsing Nazis. Love how she argued the purpose of Holocaust remembrance is to remember how easily regular people can fall into supporting fa
genocide while SJ demonstrated the argument.

NAZI salutes are somehow bad.

so much so that there is very very little left for the sober and more real science believer Donald J. Trump to Drill baby Drill.
duh.
88 = HH
HH = Heil Hitler
He's always been signaling his support for Nazis.
How fucking dumb is Lowry?
Turn off CNN.
He is terrorizing America.
He is terrorizing Americans.
He is trying to terrorize the rest of the world too.
That world is seeking a non-terrorist ally and that means the world is out of balance and in danger.
Trump is making the world unsafe.
Their failure (of anyone) to immediately and unequivocally condemn this act is inexcusable.
Their making excuses for it is damning.
That goes for @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
Silence is Acceptance.
Mission accomplished for now.
