Donald Trump retweeted extremist hate group Britain First and this is how people responded
The so-called president excelled even himself today by retweeting three anti-Muslim videos posted by far-right group Britain First.

I know we aren't surprised by anything President Twitler does any more but retweeting obviously biased hate tweets with the intent of spreading hate and fear is fucking nonsense. pic.twitter.com/I2gBvj1vTZ

Disgraceful and tragic that a man whose wife's murder was preceded by repeated shouts of "Britain First" should have to point this out. Solidarity with the Coxes; shame upon shame for Trump https://t.co/pjT80O2EnL

Trump has legitimised the far right in his own country, now he’s trying to do it in ours. Spreading hatred has consequences & the President should be ashamed of himself.

Oh my God, Trump just tweeted a Britain First far-right, ultranationalist account of a “Muslim boy beats up Dutch boy on crutches.” This is insane demonization of religious minorities by the President of the United States. It’s un-American. pic.twitter.com/U1C0ETeh6b

Trump sharing Britain First. Let that sink in. The President of the United States is promoting a fascist, racist, extremist hate group whose leaders have been arrested and convicted. He is no ally or friend of ours. @realDonaldTrump you are not welcome in my country and my city.

Good morning. The president of the United States just RTed 3 anti-Muslim videos and proposed a boycott of a news station he doesn’t like. Everything is fine and not at all Nazi-ish.
