Trump says he didn’t know who Fuentes was, which is odd, since Fuentes was one of the Nazis who marched in the murderous “Unite the Right” Charlottesville demonstration five years ago—Nazis who Trump incidentally later defended as Very Fine People.

Many Republicans insist that Trump wasn’t defending Nazis when he said "very fine people," but rather the non-Nazis who marched with the Nazis for apparently non-Nazi reasons.

Anyway I'm told many mostly unnamed and silent Republicans are shocked.

Maybe they're so mostly silent because of how shocked they are, though I must say I'm not sure why they'd be shocked, since Republicans have had so many of these accidents in recent years—promoting Nazi memes and signals and phrases, pursuing their desired policy goals using their historical methods, and so forth—and many of them have even met with Fuentes themselves.

So many Nazi accidents. Man. Republicans are so accident prone. They're on a real unlucky streak.
