Donald Trump on Friday retweeted a message from a Twitter user with the handle @WhiteGenocideTM.
The tweet features a photoshopped picture of Jeb Bush holding a “vote for Trump” sign outside of Trump Tower.
The user's profile has a black banner photo with red lettering that says “Get the f--- out of my country.” The name attached to the profile is Donald Trumpovitz and the location is “Jewmerica," with a link to a page promoting a pro-Adolf Hitler documentary.
The profile picture is the cover of the October 1961 issue “The National Police Gazette," featuring a picture of George Lincoln Rockwell, the founder of the American Nazi Party, thumbing his nose, and the subhead “The Man who wants to be Hitler.”
Trump's campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Trump preceded the retweet with a string of messages criticizing Bush, including his usual "low energy" refrain.
"Trump's latest classy tweet attack on @JebBush," tweeted Kristy Campbell, Bush's national press secretary, in response to another tweet from The Federalist co-founder Sean Davis. "Unreal. Donald Trump just unironically retweeted a vile White Nationalist account," Davis wrote.

Pic is now gone. Link to above remains on Trumps account.
He has Neo-Nazi supporters re the Daily Stormer.
Time for a reset button...
Exactly.
Pathetic! Trump did not endorse the views of a neo-Nazi
Your premise is wrong. I doubt anyone believes Trump is a Nazi. However, this is yet just another example of his poor judgement. Whoever retweeted that on his campaign should be fired.
Endorse? No.
Follow? Yes.
How does he control that?
A mere blip. Trump uses social media better than any candidate ever.
That’s the photo that these people supporting Cruz are getting in a tizzy about?
Judging from Cruz’s lack of an online ground game, who can be shocked that his fanboys have no clue how Twitter works.
He can’t. But what is it about Trump that draws that crowd to him?
They use a lot of humor, memes, trolling, baiting and other tactics. They basically drive the left, neocons, cuckservatives, etc. insane.
Let's not do the work for the left and use terms like "neo-nazi" meant to invoke an emotional reaction.
I will when the birther attacks stop and the Alex Jones CFR types stop their Alinsky attacks on Cruz.
He’s a celebrity whom America thinks they know after having him in their homes for 12 years as a TV personality. They are flocking to him because he has been able to articulate their concerns and their frustration with the political class. Populism and nationalism work if you have a message.
Yep.
I doubt Trump even runs his own twitter. Probably some assistant.
The Cruzers are desperate.
********************************************
I hope that Cruz supporters are NOT commandeering TRUMP’S (LET US ALL PRAISE HIM & GIVE HIM ALL THE GLORY) Twitter account—that would be desperate. If THAT is the case, I hope that when Donald’s staff tells him they also say DONALD, FORGIVE THEM, FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO. And the MAGNANIMOUS TRUMP (BLESSED IS HE) will forgive them and welcome them to his bosom.
Could it be possible that TRUMP or his own staff did the tweet? Only remotely. GLORY BE TO THE FANTASTIC TRUMP & HIS CAMPAIGN.
