From what I could gather, he was sayin "Sieg heil" towards someone he was fighting with to make fun of the person. They had gotten into an argument about Jeffrey's column about liberal fascism or something. So it sounds like he was trying to claim the person he was fighting with was a fascist.

Still, stupid thing

Actually I found Kayleigh McEnany even worse.  She fits in well with her new job at Trump tv.  Off course I am glad to see both of them gone.  That being said I don't know how one can intelligently defend Trump.  I can see someone defending Cruz or Bush jr., who neither I agreed with, but at least they were sane and reasonable even if I disagreed with them whereas Trump does so many crazy things even if you like his policies seems tough to defend him.  That being said there are many world leaders elsewhere who I don't understand yet are popular.  One example is the current Philippines president Rodrigo Duterte who has done and said more than his fair share of dumb things yet still has an 80% approval rating.
Yeah Kayleigh wasn't the best either. I just for some reason thought she was better than Lord. Maybe it was how Lord talked with virtually no emotion.

There's a difference between nazi and fascist (though Lord id probably too dim to understand it). Calling someone who isn't a nazi a nazi is not ok.
Yeah you're correct there.

I hate it in politics when "Nazi" is thrown around so frequently.

She wasn't well equipped enough to blindly defend Trump when the goings got really tough. She seemed to cower a bit during big scandals like the access Hollywood tape and didn't fare well on CNN panels where she was the only Trump supporter. Lord on the other hand...
I would've rather had her disagreeing with Trump than Lord blindly following him.  Every time I would watch CNN, Lord would defend the stupidest things.

But that's probably why they kept him on (until this happened).

So many of them should have been fired:

-Jeffrey Lord (reasons: unbearable; way too hackish; Nazi salute that just happened that was directed to someone else)
-Symone Sanders (reason: racist due to defending Chicago people that yelled f*** white people)
-Don Lemon (reason: same reason as Sanders)

You know what, they should just fire everyone for being so hackish and absolutely annoying to listen to.  They should return to fair news.
