During his speech, followers began raising their arms and stretching out their pointer fingers in what appeared to be a salute. Now, “Heil Trump is going viral, and the one-finger gesture is being compared to Hitler’s “heil Hitler” salute.
People online are also speculating that Trump may have taken to the QAnon, a group that derives from a far-right American community whose beliefs revolve around prominent figures being part of a secret society of child abusers and Satanists.
It didn’t long for people to react to the gesture online.
“Oh my goodness — Trump’s hypnotic rant about how the US is declining is now set to dramatic music. Weird and very cult-like,” said a Twitter user.
“Jesus christ that’s about as close to a crowd of people doing a nazi salute as you’ll probably get outside of an actual nazi meeting where they openly admit they’re nazis,” said another user.
