Donald Trump, the controversial Republican presidential frontrunner, on Saturday asked his supporters at a Florida rally to raise their right hands in a pledge to vote for him, a gesture some found was evocative of the Nazi salute.<br />"Raise your right hand.<br />I do solemnly swear that I — no matter how I feel, no matter what the conditions, if there's hurricanes or whatever — will vote, on or before the 12th for Donald J. Trump for president," the bellicose tycoon yelled at the crowd.<br />As the rally complied, he said "Thank you.<br />Now I know.<br />Don’t forget you all raised your hands.<br />You swore.<br />Bad things happen if you don’t live up to what you just did."<br />This is poised to become the latest scandal in a campaign plagued with them, especially when the firebrand billionaire is involved.
