Sure. But context matters. I doubt everyone would have gotten too riled up if he was hailing a cab instead of showing alignment with neofascist ideals.

Just FYI, this phrase originates with a literal neonazi.

As they say though, even a broken clock can be right twice a day
Use of a phrase doesn’t automatically imply agreement with its originator.
Broken clock as speed isn’t right or offset? Doesn’t seem to work

What about an arm wave? Same rules apply?

Even a stopped Nazi clock is right twice a day.
