TPM Muckraker reporter Allegra Kirkland tracked him down and got a 30-min phone interview on Friday and also added some interesting details from research

When TPM first reached Symonette on Wednesday to ask how he snags such prominent seats at Trump rallies, he hung up after a few minutes, saying he was rushing over to an event Vice President Pence was holding with Venezuelan immigrants at a church in Miami’s Doral neighborhood.

Reached again on Friday, Symonette insisted in a meandering 30-minute phone call from the porch of his Miami home that he has no formal relationship with the Trump campaign. He said he uses his own funds to travel to campaign and administration events throughout the southeast.

“I just go on my own, that’s it,” Symonette said, adding that he knows plenty of people to “say hi to” but has no ongoing contact with any Trump staffers.

“I don’t know if they’re on the campaign,” he said of the individuals he greets at campaign events. “’Cause when I go there I make it my business to keep on business, cause what I’m really interested in doing is showing that the white man and the black man are in unity. Because the Bible says if we fight, God is going to kill everybody by fire.”

and

According to Symonette, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Confederate Gen. Albert Pike, president of the Confederacy Jefferson Davis, “almost all of the Confederate army,” the founders of the Ku Klux Klan, and segregationist former Birmingham, Alabama Public Safety Commissioner Bull Connor have one thing in common: they were all “full-blooded Cherokees.”

He views Trump, on the other hand, as a “white gentile” who will impose taxes on the Cherokees and an “emancipator” who will provide economic liberation to blacks and to poor whites.

Symonette has long promoted these same fringey ideas on his radio show, YouTube channel and at tea party events. In 2012, he derailed a Rick Santorum campaign event where he was invited to give an introduction by calling Democrats “Nazis” and “slave masters” in disguise [....]

I think I figured it out. He is The Danger on twitter and at rallies. Then he's done, somebody else has to figure out how to get "us" out of this mess without letting the fans know it's not gonna happen. That should be easy now that he's trained them in chants which are faux sucky liars. And the somebody else knows to leak to the outlets that the fans don't believe ,so that everyone important knows what is really going on. And the buck stops at the somebody else with this, the somebody else takes the fall if the somebody else fucks it up: somebody, you're fired.

Wow, just wow. No I hadn't seen it. She wrote that in May! What an incredible talent she is, if I was a serious writer I would just give up after reading her.

Where's Kelly? At the bar? Did you see this:

.......the judiciary kept suspending his executive orders, and scandals erupted like boils and sores. Instead of the dictator of the little demimondes of beauty pageants, casinos, luxury condominiums, fake universities offering fake educations with real debt, fake reality tv in which he was master of the fake fate of others, an arbiter of all worth and meaning, he became fortune’s fool. He is, as of this writing, the most mocked man in the world. After the women’s march on January 21st, people joked that he had been rejected by more women in one day than any man in history; he was mocked in newspapers, on television, in cartoons, was the butt of a million jokes....

Also a good point, from the CNN Sucks producer himself, does a gotcha

Unspoken aim of Trump's ire: his own aides' advice

By Kevin Liptak, CNN White House Producer, Updated 5:32 PM ET, Wed August 23, 2017

Phoenix (CNN)When President Donald Trump's aides said he wouldn't discuss a pardon of controversial Sheriff Joe Arpaio, he did it anyway. When they warned him against lashing Arizona's Republican senators by name, he made snide allusions to them instead. And when they insisted his statements about white supremacist violence required a re-do, he declared he was right the first time.

For all of Trump's bluster at Tuesday evening's campaign rally -- against the media, Democrats, and some Republicans -- a rebuke of his own staff lay just beneath the surface, the latest indication that efforts to rein him in instead cause him to act out.

His comments Tuesday, which largely veered off script for more than an hour, stood in stark contrast to his measured address to veterans on Wednesday, when he sounded on message and called for unity [....]

Don't miss this part:

on Tuesday, Kelly didn't appear ready to take any credit for the President on stage.

"John, where's John? Where is he? Where's General Kelly?" Trump asked, looking toward the wings. "Get him out here. He's great. He's doing a great job."

Kelly didn't appear.

meanwhile if you check out Jeff Flake's twitter feed, you'll see he's been hanging out with the Arizona Sheriff's Association, accepting awards from them, and discussing jobs jobs jobs and trade at various visits round town. All is well, don't feed the troll.
