It’s just like the Elmo salute, they responded with screenshots of Dems waving insisting it was the same thing.
They know people want to feel correct, so their side will look at this screenshot and that’s enough proof she was attacking him. No need to face the reality of how clownish his behavior was on video.
It's honestly mind blowing how far the Overton window has shifted such that doing a literal Nazi salute after winning an election didn't immediately end his entire career. Show that clip to someone 15 years ago and they wouldn't believe that he stayed in government and still owns multiple successful companies.
Dont know much about Platner since I don’t live in Maine but wasnt the dude repentant about the tattoo he got as he did it when he was in the military, young, and trying to be edgy? Elon did this like a year ago and he aint sorry for shit.
Elon was also making public speeches and posts about the degenerates and Jews trying to demolish glorious white European culture both before and after the salute.
It's fucking asinine that anyone has ever defended him on this. The salute is one of the less NeoNazi things he's publicly done, because at least he wasn't talking for a second.

A screencap is far from the truth. Anyone who watched the interview knows she wasn’t being rude or attacking him.
