The US Army is investigating how a handout distributed on a base in Alabama initially included a description that the phrase"Make America Great Again" was a form of"covert white supremacy" and therefore racist -- which it says was"sent out in error and immediately recalled."
Earlier this week, a graphic was included in a handout disseminated at the US Army's Redstone Arsenal that suggested that President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign slogan was a form of"covert white supremacy."On July 6 at Redstone, officials distributed a handout to personnel that"included two unapproved pages that were sent out in error and immediately recalled," Army spokeswoman Cynthia Smith said in a statement.
