Just two months after the Trump campaign got into trouble for tweeting an image that was widely seen as anti-Semitic, a member of the Republican nominee’s family is at it again. On Sunday, Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of Donald Trump, proudly promoted the above Instagram post, which includes a meme frequently shared by white supremacists. “Apparently I made the cut as one of the Deplorables,” he wrote, referring to a series of controversial comments Hillary Clinton recently made about Trump’s supporters. “All kidding aside I am honored to be grouped with the hard working men and women of this great nation that have supported@realdonaldtrump [sic] and know that he can fix the mess created by politicians in Washington.”

The image, which plays off Sylvester Stallone’s geriatric action movie The Expendables, shows Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and his sons alongside such “hard working men” as prominent conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, Breitbart commentator Milo Yiannopoulos—who was banned from Twitter for inciting hateful rhetoric—and Pepe the Frog, an amphibian meme that has been appropriated by Trump’s “alt-right” followers, some of whom use the image to peddle racism, anti-Semitism, and white nationalism.

Roger Stone, a longtime Trump ally, tweeted the same image on Saturday, while former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, who is running for Senator in Louisiana, tweeted his own version of the meme, boasting the tagline: “Anti-Racist is a code word for anti-white.”

How Pepe the Frog Became a Nazi Trump Supporter and Alt-Right Symbol

4chan’s Pepe the Frog meme was wildly popular among ‘normies’—until white nationalists decorated him with swastikas and gave him a Trump button.

On Jan. 7, Cheri Jacobus, a Republican consultant and pundit who is suing Trump for defamation and has been harassed by Trump supporters, tweeted, “The green frog symbol is what white supremacists use in their propaganda. U don’t want to go there.”

@JaredTSwift said some of the support for Trump was in jest, but for most of his cohorts, it’s sincere. He even claimed to have voted for Trump in the primary himself, wherever it is he lives, and said he’d vote for him in the general, too.

“In a sense, we’ve managed to push white nationalism into a very mainstream position,” he said. “Trump’s online support has been crucial to his success, I believe, and the fact is that his biggest and most devoted online supporters are white nationalists. Now, we’ve pushed the Overton window. People have adopted our rhetoric, sometimes without even realizing it. We’re setting up for a massive cultural shift.”

1. "Anti-Racist is a code word for anti-white.” WTH is that supposed to mean???

unless he left out the last word , supremacy or something

8. the deplorables' zero sum thinking

that civil rights movement (anti-racism) leads to the "genocide" of the white race, i.e. as a result of interracial marriage, non-white immigration, etc.

10. No...that is an alt-right phrase.

The idea is that white people NEED racism in order to survive.

2. That fucking twit at it again or is this the same one?

[pnwmom]

3. He just posted this on Instagram on Sunday. n/t

[lonestarnot]

4. Yeah, that is the one I saw. Deplorables are fucking boring aren't they?

[pnwmom]

6. It's worse than just being stupid. They're hateful, and proud of it. n/t

7. Trump Jr. Is the type who would rush to join Hiltler Youth in '30s Germany.

punk ass, pampered asshole.

9. The weird thing is, Trump The Second doesn't seem to realize he reposted an ANTI-Trump image.

Pepe was placed in that graphic to LINK his dad to the alt-right.

12. How do you know this wasn't a dog whistle to the alt-right?

[Ken Burch]

13. The two reasons I doubt that it is are:

A) A "dog-whistle" would likely never be THIS overt(it would be like airbrushing Klansmen into a George Wallace poster in 1968;

B) To my knowledge, the alt-right aren't that skilled in Photoshop. This is a very professional-looking job.

I am open to being proved wrong on this, though.

And even if it is a dog-whistle, Young Eric should have realized that this wasn't a positive image of his father and what he stands for.
