But seriously, I have discounted Trump's "base" and his fan club rally attendees as hopeless rubes for YEARS...they ARE deplorables, each and every one of them. Nut bags, lunatics, racists, hate mongers, conspiracy goons, idiots and bigots.

Seriously, for ANYONE to participate in these modern day Nuremberg rallies they should ALL be documented and shamed for what they are enabling and participating in...the wholesale destruction of America.

The strange story of that ‘Blacks for Trump’ guy standing behind POTUS at his Phoenix rally

Snip

The radical fringe activist from Miami once belonged to a violent black supremacist religious cult, and he runs a handful of amateur, unintelligible conspiracy websites. He has called Barack Obama “The Beast” and Hillary Clinton a Ku Klux Klan member. Oprah Winfrey, he says, is the devil. Most curiously, in the 1990s, he was charged, then acquitted, with conspiracy to commit two murders.

Before he started calling himself Michael the Black Man, the man identified as Maurice Woodside. Around 1980, he joined a cult led by Hulon Mitchell Jr., who went by Yahweh Ben Yahweh and eventually turned violent, reported the New Times. The two men met when Woodside was 21 years old.

Woodside followed Yahweh’s fiery teachings for years, even after the leader allegedly denied his dying, cancer-stricken mother medical treatment and instead prescribed her “vegetables, nuts, and herbs,” prosecutors once said in court, according to the New Times.

In the early 1990s, the New Times reported, Woodside, Yahweh and 14 other members of the cult were arrested by federal agents and charged with racketeering and conspiracy in 14 murders and a firebombing, reported the New Times.
