HOWELL — As Donald Trump prepared to take the stage in Grand Rapids, his first rally since an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, white supremacists, some of whom voiced support for the former president, were preparing to demonstrate in Howell.
One group chanted "Heil Hitler" during a march Saturday, July 20, that lasted about half an hour, according to city officials. There were about a dozen participants, with faces covered and signs in hand, gathered on the lawn of the Livingston County Historic Courthouse.
In a video, the demonstrators repeatedly chanted: "We love Hitler. We love Trump." The photos include a person dressed in all-black who appears to be giving the Nazi salute.
In a post on X (previously Twitter), U.S. Rep Elissa Slotkin wrote, "I'm sorry to see this in Howell, a place where many have worked hard to change the town's image. Racism and antisemitism were on full display from this group, and Howell community leaders are right to call it out."
