"Trump basically said to go fuck them up! this makes me so happy," writes one prominent Proud Boy. pic.twitter.com/hYA7yQVAOn
I am deeply, deeply worried about POTUS referencing the “Proud Boys” unprompted in the debate in the manner that he did. He is clearly waaaaaaaay more involved in the day to day management of relations with/winks toward extremist groups than he has thus far allowed to be exposed.

Mr. @realDonaldTrump, as an American Jew who voted for you in 2016, I demand that you explain to me why you would not condemn white supremacists? #ProudBoys #Debates2020

Proud Boys in social media groups are going wild about the "Stand back and stand by" comment. They are basically seeing it as acknowledgment and a call to arms

There has been an explosion of political disinformation ahead of tonight's debate. This garbage can be traced back to QAnon posts and well-known conspiracy theorists. Yet these lies are spreading like crazy on Facebook right now — and are finding a home with right-wing outlets.
