“Is spencer #ourguy?”

“TRUMP IS /ourguy/”

“Since the 2016 election, these far-right communities have entered into a sort of imagined dialogue with the president. They create and disseminate slogans and graphics, and celebrate when they show up in Mr. Trump's Twitter feed days or weeks later. They carefully dissect his statements, looking for hints of their influence. And when they find those clues, they take them as evidence that Mr. Trump is "/ourguy/," a label for people internet extremists believe share their views, but who are unable to say so directly in public.”
