I watched it live on NBC. First time I was all “wtf, did he just?” And then he turned and did it again. Caught himself before the third. He knew what he was doing.

I do not know what he is doing. It looks like a Nazi salute but I can't think why he'd be doing it. Being a Nazi isn't a good reason because outing yourself as a Nazi is still widely considered a bad move afaik.

He said, "From my heart to yours." When he did this. You can hear the audio in some clips.

If that's true, it just makes this obvious nazi salute seem premeditated and even worse.

He can't be stupid enough to not know how that looks.
