A prominent white supremacist has changed his endorsement from Donald Trump to Hillary Clinton, he told The Telegraph on Monday.

Will Quigg, a grand dragon of the California Klan chapter who is responsible for recruitment in the western United States, says Clinton is the proper choice.

"We want Hillary Clinton to win," Quigg told The Telegraph. "She is telling everybody one thing, but she has a hidden agenda. She's telling everybody what they want to hear so she can get elected, because she's Bill Clinton's wife, she's close to the Bushes. (But) once she's in the presidency, she's going to come out and her true colors are going to show."

He continues on to say that she is going to put border policies in place and Second Amendment rights will be honored.

The current statements contradict earlier ones about Trump being "the only hope we have of getting WHITE AMERICA BACK!" he once said in a tweet.

Trump recently came under fire for his response to support from former Klan member David Duke.

Quigg made headlines late last month when he and a group of Klansmen held a "White Lives Matter" protest in the streets of Anaheim, California, which left three people stabbed.

Protesters from the Klan and their counter-protesters were arrested after violence broke out, but they have since been released from jail. However, that may be temporary as police sort through the extensive video footage of the event.
