Rocky Suhayda said on his radio program last month a Trump victory would help build pro-white coalitions, according to BuzzFeed News.  

“Now, if Trump does win, OK, it’s going to be a real opportunity for people like white nationalists, acting intelligently to build upon that, and to go and start — you know how you have the black political caucus and what not in Congress, and, everything, to start building on something like that, okay,” he said.

 “I think it’s gonna surprise the enemy, because, I think that they feel that the white working class, especially the male portion of the working class, and with him his female counterparts have basically thrown in the towel. Given up hope of any politician again standing up for their interests," Suhayda added, the news outlet reported.

“It doesn’t have to be anti, like the movement’s been for decades, so much as it has to be pro-white. It’s kinda hard to go and call us bigots, if we don’t go around and act like a bigot. That’s what the movement should contemplate. Alright.”

Trump has drawn attention from white nationalists since the start of his campaign — to the ire of people on the right and left. 

David Duke, a former Ku Klux Klan leader, has endorsed Trump and has said he's "100 percent behind" his agenda. 

Duke said last week many of his supporters will also support Trump.
