This year, however, some attendees and former attendees have expressed frustration with the conference’s stronger association with Trump and his wing of the party.

If I was frustrated that Nazis are co-opting my political party, I'm kicking them out or leaving the party that welcomes them.

Anything less, you're part of a Nazi movement.

Just because it needs to be pointed out every time. If they were frustrated by fascists/Nazis co-opting the party. They're 100 years too late.

The father and grandfather of 2 American presidents was implicated. As well as the head of JP Morgan at the time. No one was punished, or called out even. And the history of the incident has largely been completely scrubbed out of existence.

According to Katz, "Prescott Bush was too involved with the actual Nazis to be involved with something that was so home grown as the business plot."

It's ok, Prescott wasn't plotting to overthrow the US with those fringe Nazis, he was too busy working with the real Nazis!

i mean if you look at history, there wete nazi sympathizers and enemies of the nazis.

A lot of things in this world are grey. this is not one of them.
