NBC Newscontributor Frank Figliuzzi said Monday that decision to fly American flags half-staff until Aug. 8-- in response to the El Paso and Dayton mass shootings-- could be seen by white supremacists as a nod to Adolf Hitler.

We have to understand the adversary and the threat we’re dealing with, and if we don’t understand how they think we’ll never understand how to counter them, so it’s the little things and the language and messaging that matters.“The president says that we will fly our flags at half-mast until August 8, that’s 8/8. Now I’m not going to imply that he did this deliberately, but I am using it as an example of the ignorance of the adversary that’s being demonstrated by the White House,” Figliuzzi continued. “The numbers 8/8 are very significant in the neo-Nazi and the white supremacy movement. Why? Because the letter ‘H’ is the eighth letter of the alphabet, and to them, the numbers 8/8 stand for ‘Heil Hitler."

NBC News contributor raises suspicions over Trump'''s order to fly US flags half-staff until Aug. 8 | Fox News

Typical BS pumped out by the MSM hate machine...

These people are doing nothing to heal the wounds of the nation.

4chan had everyone believing this was a Nazi secret signal. It's the OK sign.
 
What are we going to do next, skip August 8th every year?

Anyone have any evidence whatsoever that backs up any kind of claim that Trump made this choice just to give props to Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists? Anything at all?

I believe that August 8th is also 'National Zucchini Day' or some **** like that, was that another nod to Hitler somehow?

Nobody claimed that Trump intended it. It's another crap right-wing click bait thread.

Right. In fact the Figluzi guy made quite the point out of making that disclaimer...as he was saying it and as Brian Williams was talking about how horrifying that possibility was.


"I'm not saying that Dave is a baby raping, crack smoking, wife beating thief but there are other baby raping, crack smoking, wife beating thieves named Dave so it's at least possible that Dave has some, if not all, of those characteristics....but I'm not saying he does"

FRANK FIGLIUZZI: And I'll give you an example of that. We have to understand the adversary and the threat we’re dealing with. And if we don't understand how they think, we’ll never understand how to counter them. So, it’s little things and language and messaging that matters. The President said that we will fly our flags at half-mast until August 8th. That's 8/8.

Now, I'm not going to imply that he did this deliberately but I am using it as an example of the ignorance of the adversary that’s being demonstrated by the White House. The numbers “88” are very significant in neo-Nazi and white supremacy movement. Why? Because the letter “H” is the eighth letter of the alphabet and, to them, the numbers “88” together stand for “Heil Hitler.” So, we’re going to be raising the flag back up at dusk on 8/8. No one is thinking about this. No one is giving him the advice or he's rejecting the advice. So understand your adversary to counter the adversary.

Is the media running out of things for which to criticize Trump?
Mainstream credibility is in par with National Enquirer.
The media will start reporting on the Alien that came ashore on the west coast. May be they will do a follow-up on the National Enquirer story of the Oprah Love Triangle with Obama?

Now that doesn't fit the narrative. If Trump is a supremacists, a nazi, a klan member, how can Figliuzzi claim this?

“The president says that we will fly our flags at half-mast until August 8, that’s 8/8. Now I’m not going to imply that he did this deliberately, but I am using it as an example of the ignorance of the adversary that’s being demonstrated by the White House,”

Man, Trump makes for a bad Nazi if he doesn't know the signs. Or he is a Nazi, and that makes your post nonsense.

The moron worked at the FBI.

Oh vey... perhaps he was used in some type of chemical experiment. That might explain his brainlessness.

Playing the game of that idiot... did you know... Obama was the 44th President, and had two terms... 44 x 2... 88 ...
HMmmmmmmmmm?!
