'''Andrew Anglin''' (born July 27, 1984) is an American journalist affiliated with the [[Alt-Right]] and the founder and editor of ''[[The Daily Stormer]]''. Anglin is known to be a [[Neo-Nazism|neo-Nazi]] and [[White Power Movement|white supremacist]], although he claims to prefer the term "American Nationalist", and frequently promotes [[Anti-Semitism|anti-Semitic]] conspiracy theories. Naturally, he supported [[Donald Trump]]'s presidential campaign, although he also expressed support for British left-wing politician Jeremy Corbyn for his anti-globalist stance.
