He still hasn't said boo about the mosque attack last week. His statement today asked us Americans to unite with the hate groups. What? You should see how the Daily Stormer took that. They see it as a win. |
Trump's tweet (way later): Condolences to the family of the young woman killed today, and best regards to all of those injured, in Charlottesville, Virginia. So sad! This is not a person who is acknowledging, and condemning the Nazi's demonstrating in his name. This is a dude, who is our President, who writes like a 20-something Lularoe selling mom. He's the POTUS for fuck's sake, and cannot call out people whom he knows gives him support. Cowardly little man. |
Can you please further explain your position? |

Trump:
"Condolences to the family of the young woman killed today, and best regards to all of those injured, in Charlottesville, Virginia. So sad!" What a strong leader actually says: "You are not wanted in this great commonwealth. Shame on you. You pretend that you are patriots, but you are anything but a patriot. You want to talk about patriots, talk about Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, who brought our country together. Think about the patriots today, the young men and women, who with wearing the cloth of our country. Somewhere around the globe they are putting their life in danger. They are patriots. You are not. You came here today to hurt people. And you did hurt people. My message is clear, we are stronger than you. You have made our commonwealth stronger. You will not succeed. There is no place for you here. There is no place for you in America." |
| Bannon and Miller need to go ASAP!! |

I feel like "best regards" need to become a meme.
I'm sorry white supremacists are inciting violence. Best regards, Donald I'm sorry I took away your healthcare, Best regards, Donald I'm sorry I'm not doing anything about climate change and contributing to the demise of our planet and your home. Best regards, Donald |
Please express your inner most thoughts here. |
Are you talking about the counter protestors? They looked pretty angry |
I'm talking about the 20-something angry white males who drove from places like Ohio to shout and march with torches because they were angry about an antiquated statue. I mean... really dudes? |

Hillary gave a speech that talked about the fabric of America and referred to small percentage as the basket of deplorables. These are the people specifically to which she was referring. If you are defending today, then you may as well get a t-shirt that says "proud deplorable."
|
What? Bannon and Miller are alt-right folks. Trump needs to fire them now. |
No one here is defending the violence OR the bigotry. Are you? |

CNN reporting that 2 Charlottesville police officers were also killed late today when their patrol helicopter crashed. Were they in the air specifically because of these White supremacist Nazi protests and the resulting violence? Because the city was on high alert due to violence? Seems reasonable to assume they would be.
One year ago today, who could have imagined such an upsidedown world? Trump has brought out the very worst in America. It was obviously there before, but now this evil has a platform. |
There are violent men and women in any/every party. |
looks like any middle america fb post...guns> dogs> anchor babies |
