They marched through Charlottesville shouting "Heil Trump!", and called him God Emperor of the United States (GEOTUS), before one of them decided to drive his car at high speed into a peaceful crowd of anti-Nazis, killing a woman, Heather Heyer.
So how has the far right reacted to Charlottesville?
Yep. Buys the Confederate Battle Flag in large numbers.
The South is risin' again..., eh, Alex?
Bet your family is really excited about this?
And as these flags are made in China, why don't you use your ill-gotten fortune, invest in America, hire American, and manufacture these flags in Texas, so that real actual Confederates can buy real actual Confederate Battle Flags that are really actually made not just in America, but in good 'ol Confederate Texas from a Texas family which is descended from Confederate colonels and generals. Yeeha!
Maybe do a special with Brain Force and 1776?
There's a business opportunity in there somewhere...
Confederate battle flag sales have rocketed in the US since the violence at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville led to the death of a 32-year-old mother.
Retailers have reported a surge in demand for the Confederate flag and although most US major sellers no longer produce the flag because of its controversial history, imports from China and other countries have filled the rising demand.
