His response kinda confirms it was exactly what it looked like:

Yeah, I mean, it's obviously trolling to begin with. What he did is undeniably similar to the nazi salute, yet he dismisses that fact without even slightly addressing it. It's intentionally lazy, and trying to conflate less-apt Hitler comparisons with an incredibly applicable one.

Yeah, it's not like the Germans would have any special insight into Hitler and not invoke him lightly.
