I’m old enough to remember that shortly after the first Trump win, a Nazi salute performed in support of him at a white nationalist conference—not by any government official but just a supporter—was big news

I can’t get over the fact that two separate people did Nazi salutes at CPAC and it’s so normalized at this point that it’s barely even notable on TV news. In any halfway normal era that shit would warrant wall-to-wall coverage.
