If you repudiate Trump's horrifying racist rhetoric, but endorse Louise Mensch, you are a hypocrite. Louise propagates the same racist talking points like in this FoxNews interview: Syrian refugees in EU are a "complete disaster, blood, chaos, carnage.”

For years Louise Mensch has perpetuated odious attacks like this one against immigrants/ Muslims/POC and has helped normalize this rhetoric. Louise Mensch is a politician and political operative who has helped pave the way for racists like Trump.

During her Brexit campaign, Louise Mensch RT the same (now banned) Hate Groups as Trump has because Neo Nazis spread the Bexit campaign fear mongering. If you endorseLouise as a hero & a leader & ignore her vile racist ideology, you are no different than a Trump apologist.

During her Brexit campaign Louise Mensch amplified Neo Nazi accounts like this one RedCoat. Louise used White Nationalist accts who were conduits for her #VoteLeave xenophobic populism which was the weapon Brexiteers used to sway voters. Trump did the same.

Here is another White Nationalist account Louise Mensch amplified during her #VoteLeave campaign because they were effective mouthpieces for Brexit's xenophobic populist message.

During the #LeaveEU #VoteLeave campaign MP Jo Cox was brutally murdered by Neo Nazi Thomas Mair. Louise Mensch used her Heat Street platform to defend him as "mentally ill" & repeatedly denied his ties to hate group Britain First & his racial motivated murder. This is Mair...

Mair's defense lawyers put forward no evidence that Neo Nazi Mair was mentally ill. When Mair murdered Cox he shouted "Britain First." Louise Mensch claimed the witnesses were lying and they were Muslims... There is no line in the sand between Louise and Trump's vile ideology.

UK Fascist Nick Griffin, former head of the Hate Group BNP praised Louise Mensch as "brave" for defending Neo Nazi Mair. Griffin is employed by the Russian gov't to oversee elections, & publishes on a website run by Russian fascist & Putin ideologue Dugin, along with Steve Bannon

This is Nick Griffin who praised Louise Mensch for her defense of Nazi Thomas Mair after his racially motivated murder of MP Jo Fox-as a young man & with a White Nationalist flag. If this brand of racist ideology is appalling to you but you endorse Mensch, you are a hypocrite.

Nick Griffin wasn't the only White Nationalist who praised Louise Mensch's Heat Street article defending Neo Nazi Thomas Mair after he murdered MP Jo Cox during the EU referendum. Here is White Nationalist, Stefan Molyneux and...

PEGIDA & English Defense League founder Tommy Robinson has long supported Mensch. (Tweet dated 2014.) EDL is a banned anti Muslim hate group. Louise has amplified this rancid human who reciprocates by endorsing her. If this disgusts you but you endorse Louise you are a hypocrite.

In 2016 Louise defended White Supremacist Lauren Southern who was banned by Patreon for fundraising to launch boats to obstruct the rescue of AFRICAN refugees. The UK banned her for terroristic acts. Giving Louise a pass for her racism is what Trump supporters do with Trump.

If you are find Trump calling immigrants "rapists and criminals" reprehensible, but aren't equally disgusted by Louise Mensch using the same demeaning racist rhetoric calling refugees "rapists and thugs" then you are a hypocrite.

If you are disgusted and repudiate Trump for perpetuating the lie that he "won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally,” but are not equally disgusted by Louise Mensch perpetuating the same lie about Pakistanis in the UK... you are a hypocrite.

If you are upset about Trump's hateful ban on Transgender troops but ignore Louise Mensch when mocks & degrades the LGBT community like in this Fox Interview "that someone is gender fluid... is that even constitutional?" or in her Heat Street post... you are a hypocrite.

If you are offended by bigot Trump tweeting "I love Hispanics" in front of a taco bowl on Cinco de Mayo but have no problem with Louise Mensch posting this deeply offensive tweet "Meesa love Hispanics. Meesa eated a taco"... then you are a hypocrite.

said it best. Decent people denounce bigots like Trump & #TeamPatriot's Louise Mensch. "Otherwise what makes you any different?"
