Biography

Suhayda graduated from Bentley High School in Livonia, Michigan, in 1969.^[3] He worked in the shipping and receiving department of the Garden City Osteopathic Hospital.^[3] Suhayda has run unsuccessfully for public office on several occasions, including for the Livonia School District and the Livonia City Council.^[2]^[3]^[14]

Suhayda was a member of the World Union of Free Enterprise National Socialists and the National Association for the Advancement of White People,^[3]^[15] and subsequently founded his own organization under the name of the American Nazi Party. Suhayda's organization claims a connection to the American Nazi Party founded by George Lincoln Rockwell in 1959,^[16] but it is officially a separate entity.^[17] He was a member of the National White People's Party in 1976, but resigned some point before 1979.^[18] As of 1979, he was the Chairman of a 12-member group called The National Front.^[18] Suhayda has stated that he represents a Livonia chapter of the Ku Klux Klan.^[19]

Shortly after the September 11 attacks, Suhayda stated that "if we were one-tenth as serious as the bin Laden terrorists, we just might start getting somewhere."^[20]^[21]^[22] In 2016, Suhayda stated on his radio show that a Donald Trump presidency could give American Nazis the chance to build a 'pro-white' political caucus similar to the Congressional Black Caucus.^[23]^[24] He publicly supported the appointment of Steve Bannon to the position of chief strategist in Donald Trump's White House.^[25]^[26]
