When has anyone ever got into trouble prematurely blaming Nazis?

Where were you in '77?

God damn it. We had him then we lost him.

Or we never really had him in the first place.

What did Trump do now?

The state of this country and the whole world depresses me, a lot.

Reverted to his original “both sides are to blame” steaming elephant dungpile argument and suggested statues of Washington and Jefferson could be torn down next, as they were slave owners. The usual crazy talk.

There was a lot of wishful thinking that “this time for sure!” Trump would see how awful Nazis were and stop supporting them. But instead he dithered for a bit, released a late and mild statement condemning white supremacists, but continued to employ the ones on his staff. But apparently that was too extremist for Trump, so he walked back the statement part, and echoed some white supremacist talking points while he was at it.

I really want that alleged tape to be real, but Trump would likely just send it out as a Christmas card video at this point.

I don’t know. I don’t know all the details about what exactly happens. Obviously, these neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK are scum, evil racist scum. But, there is this ideal: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it”. While I can’t stand the neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK, they have the right to peacefully protest. If you want to peacefully protest them, that is fine. I encourage peaceful protest of the neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK. I might even be will to join such a protest. But, violent protest crosses the line. Its seems that some of the people protesting the neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK got violent. That is illegal and should be condemned. If the neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK got violent first, that is also illegal and should be condemned. I guess the big question is which side started the violence? Of course, the driver that ran people over should have the book thrown at them. I will agree, Trump was way too slow in condemning the neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK, but I think he may have a point in that both sides are to blame for the violence that occurred. This not to say that both are equally to blame, just that both share some of the blame. I guess for once I sort of agree with Trump. Of course if the neo-nazis/white supremacists/KKK would wake up and smell the sh** they’ve been shoveling for years, things would be a lot better.

As for Washington and Jefferson, it would not surprise me if some wish to tear down their statues. They were slave owners. I’m sure some view them as nothing but slave owning racists.

The white supremacists were the first people to be violent. They were also, mostly, the only people to get violent.

Neither Washington or Jefferson fought or took sides in the Civil War, probably because they were long dead.

The evil racist scum applauding Trumps remarks is all you really need to know.

Some asshole vandalized the Lincoln Memorial last night. Holy crap. I would think there were cameras covering every inch of the place.

If I were the President of the United States, I probably would have found out by now.

He’s not the President, he’s just playing one on TV.

I’m confused, is Trump for violence or against it? During his campaign he kept saying there should be more of it. He really should pay that driver’s legal fees… a promise is a promise.
