Look for the Proud Boys in this official Trump campaign video:
Supporters of the far-right Proud Boys group can be seen in an official President Donald Trump campaign video released earlier this year following a rally in Colorado.
The arms of one person holding a MAGA hat and wearing a black and yellow Proud Boys jacket can be seen towards the end of video, parts of which were filmed at Trump’s rally at the Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs in February.
A similar black and yellow jacket can also be seen briefly earlier in the video, entitled “Stronger.”
The Colorado Times Recorder first identified the people in the clip as belonging to the group of several Proud Boys members who attended the rally in matching jackets.
The group were also photographed flashing the “OK” hand symbol—a gesture that has been simultaneously co-opted by the far-right to show a support for white supremacy as well as a trolling tactic to trick the media and liberals into thinking the fingers spell out WP (white power).
The OK hand gesture was added to the Anti-Defamation League’s database of hateful symbols in September 2019.
“We are aligned with Trump in that we believe in America First,” one of the Proud Boys supporters at the rally, who only wished to be identified as Nate, previously told the Colorado Times Recorder.
