A former FBI official warned Monday that President Donald Trump has been repeating quotes made by a white supremacist, neo-Nazi mass murderer — and demanded to know who has been "spoon-feeding" the president "white supremacy, white terrorist philosophy."

The real shocker isn’t that Trump’s regurgitating quotes from a genocidal maniac—it’s that anyone’s still pretending this isn’t the logical endpoint of his brand of performative authoritarianism. Breivik’s playbook is now GOP canon, repackaged as late-night Truth Social fanfiction for the terminally aggrieved.

Priebus and his ilk spin this as “entertainment,” a gaslighting routine so thin it’d collapse under a toddler’s scrutiny. Enablers laundering fascist rhetoric as “political discourse” are the real architects here, greasing the wheels for a man who can’t distinguish between Sun Tzu and a mass shooter’s manifesto.

The question isn’t who’s spoon-feeding him this slop. It’s why the entire Republican apparatus still licks the bowl clean. Democracy’s autopsy will list cause of death as complacency—with a footnote about cable news turning white supremacy into a primetime sport.
