One of the internet’s most notorious neo-Nazis has joined Donald Trump in endorsing Arizona candidate Blake Masters for the U.S. Senate. Andrew Anglin, who publishes the hate site Daily Stormer, announced his endorsement of Masters in a blog post that also expressed support for Trump-endorsed Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance, another GOP candidate bankrolled by billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel, reported Jewish Insider. “I cannot give a more forceful endorsement, and I demand that anyone in Arizona (who is not some kind of known neo-Nazi or whatever) get in contact with his campaign and see what kind of help he needs,” Anglin wrote in the June 9 entry. “This is exactly the kind of man this country needs.” The 37-year-old Anglin, an outspoken admirer of Adolf Hitler and an early Trump supporter, has gone into hiding since helping to orchestrate the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, and he has struggled to keep his operation online while evading lawsuits related to various harassment campaigns he allegedly provoked. (…) Masters refers to himself as a “nationalist” and approvingly quoted Nazi leader Hermann Goering in a 2006 online essay, and he has expressed agreement with the white nationalist “great replacement theory” and blamed gun violence on “Black people, frankly,” so Anglin’s endorsement is somewhat unsurprising.

Blake Masters, a Republican running for the Arizona Senate and who has received the support of former President Donald Trump, has received support from neo-Nazi publisher Andrew Anglin. Given that the Arizona GOP primary is on August 2, Masters has not yet won the party’s nomination. However, recent polls show that the Trump-backed candidate is ahead by a significant margin. Jewish Insider wаs the first to report on Fridаy thаt Anglin hаd endorsed Mаsters in а blog post from June, cаlling it а “forceful endorsement” of the Arizonа senаtoriаl cаndidаte. Anglin wrote on June 9: “I cаnnot endorse with more vehemence, аnd I demаnd thаt аnyone in Arizonа (who is not some kind of known neo-Nаzi or whаtever) get in touch with his cаmpаign аnd see whаt kind of help he needs.
