Bloomberg suggests that this as a walk-back from the much-criticized "many sides" statement Trump made on Saturday. But he's still saying "other hate groups" — which could include Antifa, and he also said:
“To anyone who acted criminally in this weekend’s racist violence, you will be held accountable,” Trump said, adding that he had just met with Attorney General Jeff Sessions and FBI Director Chris Wray for an update on a federal civil rights investigation into the incident.Anyone who acted criminally... that too would include all sides.
“We must love each other, show affection for each other and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry and violence,” he added.
Note the triad — hatred, bigotry, and violence. Those are the same 3 words he put together in Saturday's "many sides" statement — "We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides."

So we should leave people who show up to incite violence in an otherwise peaceful, if abhorrent, demonstration out of our condemnations of violence, because reasons.
Does it really matter?
For those on the left, the Democrats, it won't be enough until he is a Democrat.
For the rest of us, well, he satisfied us on Saturday.
I wonder why we didn't see this same sort of drama when a BLM activist killed 5 cops. Did Obama come out and denounce BLM? Did the news media focus on his every word and demand he directly denounce BLM?
Like I said, it doesn't matter. The media are against Trump no matter what he does. And those of us who support him are Nazi's.
F them all.
Too little, too late. The Alt Right/ Nazi's are going to be upset. They were gleefully thrilled with his first tweet about the incident.
He got North Korea to blink. That is an accomplishment for the ages. We might be able to end the Korean War, finally.
ANTIFA FOLKS ON THEIR WAY TO BATTING PRACTICE? THE FLAMETHROWER AEROSOL CAN WAS A NICE TOUCH.

You have always had a finger on the pulse of Americans, Trump will be impeached! Keep hope alive!
As I said below, you adopt the left's language, you concede the argument.
Trump should have included "antifa" and/or other terms for the leftist rioters. Otherwise it is indeed just a craven "walk back."
Read my post.
Less than a week ago, the world seemed to be on the edge of a nuclear confrontation or at least a bloody military conflict in East Asia. What a difference a few days make. After a weekend filled with a series of conciliatory statements from China, some of them downright surprising, the situation with North Korea seems to be less tense right now, which could be construed as a major win for the Trump team. To be specific, the big move came Monday as China agreed to ban imports of North Korean iron, lead, and coal
Remember just. couple days ago Unknown's hair was on fire over the impending nuclear war? Just for the record, Unknown, your personal anxieties do not sum up to good judgement.
What do Antifa and Trump have in common? Apparently they both don't like racists, including KKK, neo-Nazis and white-supremacists.
Takes the focus off Hillary, Comey, DW Schultz and Lynch... almost as if on cue.
If there were not a couple dozen instances of leftist protesters engaging in rage and hate on campuses and in cities in recent times, there might be some reason to object to the "many sides" comment.
I don't know, who holds the low moral ground, the color supremacists as in single-child, or the [class] diversitists as in selective-child? Hopefully, they will both lose.
We should see more of the peaceful flamethrower antifa lad. Nice. Peace. Flamethrower.
He's right, of course. And whatever he says, it won't be enough to some. He's a crypto-Nazi to them unless and until he apologizes for existing, acknowledges his privilege and wholeheartedly embraces the Obama/Clinton political agenda.
There was similar criticism when people proposed that all lives matter, which is a clear affront to the sense and sensibilities of the selective-child factions.
Repeating what I said in the other (exhausted) thread --
As for BLM, Antifa, and other extremist protesters, I think some people are giving them too much credit for principle or particular ideology.
A lot of these folks taking to the streets don't really care about the issues. They are just out for a day or night of mayhem. They are there simply in order to smash things and engage in some thrill violence. They are out there to experience their own real-life Purge. And sometimes, if they are lucky, they can get to loot too.
Many of the folks out there "counter-protesting" the neo-Nazis are also going to be out there setting fires and smashing windows if U.Va. were to win a national championship in basketball.
Much of this has nothing to do with principle, that is, actually caring about this person or that group or that issue. It is all about a chance to be a thug. It is blood sport.
Say the words,"radical white supremacist terror".

How do you know?
It has been a difficult week for Trump to decide between starting a Nuclear War with North Korea or a Race War in the USA. A tough choice.
My younger daughter said that, even if Trump farts, the left will say it doesn't smell right.
Trump was dragged screaming and shouting to make the short speech by his aides. He used a teleprompter which is a tell-tell sign he doesn't believe what he says.
The only good thing is the non-Trumpers got him to do it. Trump lost. We won.
"Yet despite its failure to stop Hitler in 1933 and veritable dismantling in subsequent years, Germany’s socialist labor movement and its decidedly progressive traditions outlived Hitler in the factories of its industrial cities, and began gathering up the fragments as soon as open political activity became possible. As historian Gareth Dale describes:
Of all sectors of the population, it was industrial workers in the major towns that showed the greatest immunity to Nazism. Many trade unionists and socialists were able to maintain their traditions and beliefs, at least in some form, through the Nazi era. A courageous minority, including some 150,000 Communists, took part in illegal resistance. Wider layers avoided danger but were able to keep labour movement values and memories alive amongst groups of friends, in workplaces and on housing estates.
These groups, oftentimes launched from the aforementioned housing estates, were generally called “Antifaschistische Ausschüsse,” “Antifaschistische Kommittees,” or the now famous “Antifaschistische Aktion” – “Antifa” for short."
From a nice history of the movement at Jacobin: https://www.jacobinmag.com/2017/05/antifascist-movements-hitler-nazis-kpd-spd-germany-cold-war
Trump is failing in the press, because he has not got on-board the media train which believes the Soros funded Antifa violence is justified against the white Christians.
Until Trump declares war on white Christians, AOL-CNN and Microsoft-NBC won't let him turn the page.
It's becoming so clear now why the war of words between SJWs and the new white nationalists is so intense. It isn't because they have huge ideological differences -- it's because they have so much in common. Both are obsessed with race, SJWs demanding white shame, the alt-right responding with white pride. Both view everyday life and culture through a highly racialised filter. SJWs can't even watch a movie without counting how many lines the black actor has in comparison with the white actor so that they can rush home and tumblr about the injustice of it all. Both have a seemingly boundless capacity for self-pity. Both are convinced they're under siege, whether by patriarchy, transphobia and the Daily Mail (SJWs) or by pinkos and blacks (white nationalists). Both have a deep censorious strain. And both crave recognition of their victimhood and flattery of their feelings. This is really what they're fighting over -- not principles or visions but who should get the coveted title of the most hard-done-by identity. They're auditioning for social pity. "My life matters! My pain matters! I matter!" The increasing bitterness and even violence of their feud is not evidence of its substance, but the opposite: it's the narcissism of small differences. -- Brendan O'Neill

@mockturtle says My younger daughter said that, even if Trump farts, the left will say it doesn't smell right.
Your young daughter is prescient. Trump's ass is so yuge it contains a lot of evil smelling shit in there.
How dare he include "Antifa" mask wearing bat wielding leftists as a "hate group".
How dare!
When you've lost Donald Trump you should probably give it a rest.
So....when a president uses a teleprompter it means he doesn't believe what he says?
Keep in mind that, for purposes of law enforcement, the left never acts criminally.
Poor Inga... Scott Walker will be indicted any second now!
Not letting people speak has no place in America.
No president gets to say you can't be a bigot, racist or hater.
That's social sanctions. Just follow the law.
Aside from that, what's a racist. Are geneticists racists. Are IQ tests racist. Are athletic ability tests racist.
The right squirrel to follow is good character, available to all. Not love, good character.
Among the good character things is American rules. The other guy can say whatever he wants.
@tim in vermont says He got North Korea to blink. That is an accomplishment for the ages. We might be able to end the Korean War, finally.
The US have been negotiating with North Korea for weeks. China is going to receive better trade deals in return for helping the US with North Korea.
Go back to watching Fox News and reading Breitbart to stay ignorant.
But he's still saying "other hate groups" — which could include Antifa, and he also said:
“To anyone who acted criminally in this weekend’s racist violence
But isn't it a dominate view that "racist" activity, speech etc can only be perpetrated by White people against non White people?
Why qualify violence with "racist"? It's like "social justice". Why the qualifier?
Note the triad — hatred, bigotry, and violence. Those are the same 3 words he put together in Saturday's "many sides" statement — "We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides."
Why? What's to condemn. People should be free to hate or be bigoted in whatever way they choose.
The only issue is violence and aggression - real aggression not microaggression.
And the violence shouldn't be "condemned". It should be prevented - starting with not standing down the cops. Followed by arresting and prosecuting perpetrators of that violence.
That's it. No moralizing, no searching for sinful thoughts and emotions.
We need more Spocks and Joe Fridays less "empathetic" women and politicians.
But Trump has to walk the line considering the Mean Girls who run America's/the West's media are watching over him/us.
What Trump said on Saturday was perfect. Just not good enough for Chuck Todd(D) and the rest of the MSM hacks.

Bloomberg regularly pushes some slant on Trump and seldom praises him.
Safe to characterize Bloomberg’s spin on this as Trump stepping back. I lack a good and stable personal spectrum for daily press reporting and lack a single-point niche on my messy spectrum for Bloomberg vis Trump. I assume (knowing it’s an assumption) that Bloomberg as a person and as a press practices better habits and discipline publishing careful speech than does Trump, catering to economics and businesses.
Trump has characterized himself as his own strategist, and, he seems strategically primed in a fixed form to fault those who fault Trump, Kenneth C. Frazier of Merck, only the freshest.
The unfinished jigsaw puzzle, imho, looks more like a series walk-backs by others, walking away from Trump, rather than Trump backing off. If Bloomberg spins this recent Trump statement as a walk back, and even if Bloomberg is accurate in doing so (beats me), then Bloomberg ought to be wise enough in careful discipline to render Trump’s steps a rarity.
Things could change, however, though I still hope and pray that Trump cleans the swamp, even now, in what increasingly feels to me more like his dying (political - this is not a personal wish) political days. It’s just that there are so few, maybe no, others who have the mere outward display of guts that Trump has put on, except see below in finishing.
On the bottom line, authority is not something that one talks about. Maybe a little. Not a lot. IMHO.
Authority is far more something that one moves in.
Even silently, to be most effective.
"So sad Russian Collusion story died."

Whitewash much? Communists in Germany worked with Nazis right up until June 1941, about the same time Communists and their fellow travelers in the United States turned on a dime and went from rabidly anti-war to pro-war, working as hard as possible to get the United States involved in another European war.
Trump dug himself a hole during his campaign by missing the opportunity for a "Sistah Souljah" (sp?) moment to denounce the "alt-right", so he was stuck this time. I have no problem with denouncing Nazis and Klansmen (is there any statement easier to make than that?), but the problem is that in the context of Charlottesville it appears to absolve the BLM/antifa side from responsibilty for the violence, whereas I don't think we know, yet, which group(s) were responsible. If the DOJ takes the easy way out, they'll conclude that the kid who drove his car into the crowd was Nazi or KKK, and leave it at that. I would really like to know more about what the BLM/antifa folks did (because I think they are, at least potentially, a bigger threat than the KKK/Nazis), and also what and why the local and state authorities acted as they did. Sessions, for whom I had great respect as a Senator, seems to have become pretty squishy as AG, so the DOJ investigation of these events may be a test for him.
It has been a difficult week for Trump to decide between starting a Nuclear War with North Korea or a Race War in the USA. A tough choice.

Read it and weep traitor.
"There was no hack of the Democratic National Committee’s system on July 5 last year—not by the Russians, not by anyone else. Hard science now demonstrates it was a leak—a download executed locally with a memory key or a similarly portable data-storage device. In short, it was an inside job by someone with access to the DNC’s system. This casts serious doubt on the initial “hack,” as alleged, that led to the very consequential publication of a large store of documents on WikiLeaks last summer."
"You can choose to have whatever opinion you have on the president’s statement today condemning white supremacists, but it’s hard to believe he would have read it out if he’d had his druthers. No, the real Donald Trump was the one we saw on Saturday when he decided to condemn violence “on many sides” in response to the deliberately provocative and intentionally violent neo-Nazi march in Charlottesville, Virginia; when he decided to refer to the events as “sad” in tweets; when he wished “best regards” to those injured by the car that was deliberately smashed into them, killing 1 and injuring 20. When he acted in that way, he was operating according to his instinct. And his instinct said: Do not attack the white supremacists."

Pure bad faith from a stupid fool quoted by a traitorous loser who is watching her world collapse around her.
Racism is a prejudice that claims supremacy or denies individual dignity. First, there were the color supremacists. Finally, there is the [class] diversitists, including the anti-nativists. Both groups are progressive (i.e. monotonic) in a religious/moral sense, but only the latter has enjoyed normalization and mainstream funding to spread their trans-human message.
Trumper/non-Trumper - what the fuck does that mean?
Hillary lost, Trump won - get the fuck over it.
It is embarrassing that Psych Nurse Inga and her fellow travelers demand that Trump read a fairly specific script. When he does, it's not good enough for them.
Is there a lesson to be learned?
"Pure bad faith from a stupid fool quoted by a traitorous loser who is watching her world collapse around her."
Delusional. As the weeks go by and your At Right Nazi world continues to crash down, you are sounding even more unhinged. The tide has turned. Your group is in decline. I hope you enjoyed it while it lasted.
I really want President Trump to order the FBI to conduct early morning no-knock raids on the Mayor, Police Chief and who ever else was involved in the decision to have police stand down. This is a perfect, tailor made situation, to use the lefts tactics against them. I'm sure the appropriate underlings could also be targeted.
Past experience tells us they cannot be trusted to maintain all records of meetings, and all correspondence, and govt officials using anonymous e mail accounts demands the use on no-knock raids using secret warrants, and deny them the ability to tell anyone about the searches. Just like the Walker investigation in Wisconsin.

Apparently Trump can't be bullied into blaming the problem only on the "Alt Right". As anyone with any common sense knows it took two parties to make the conflict in Charlottesville (always excepting the idiot driver who, rightly, faces a long prison term). If the DOJ actually does its job there should be some interesting findings regarding both elements.
The tide has turned? LOL. Dow kissing 22000. Consumer confidence soaring. Progs eating their own in Silicon Valley.

And it later came out they were federal agents like I said. It wasn’t even real. I mean, quite frankly, I've been to these events, a lot of the KKK guys with their hats off look like they’re from the cast of Seinfeld. Literally they’re just Jewish actors. Nothing against Jews in general, but they are leftists Jews that want to create this clash and they go dress up as Nazis. I have footage in Austin -- we're going to find it somewhere here at the office -- where it literally looks like cast of Seinfeld or like Howard Stern in a Nazi outfit. They all look like Howard Stern. They almost got like little curly hair down, and they’re just up there heiling Hitler.

Ergo, many (not all) on the left believe all whites are evil.

(2) In your experience, what is the reaction of demographic groups that have been demonized and denounced based solely on their ethnic identity?

I'm now seeing why nothing gets done in Washington.
Every time some avoidable tradegy goes down, we're reassured over and over by politicians that "their thoughts and prayers" are with us all - especially the victims.
All that thinking and praying - cause I know they're really sitting down and contemplating the events in the perspective of the family then delivering prayers individually written for the victims - takes a long time done right.
Or...
They could just be vomiting out some worthless pablum while doing nothing.

The current misshapen leftie opinion is that provocation results in violence. The antifa, having no agency, once provoked simply has to attack. Impossible to do otherwise because "provoked." Does this work both ways? Can I bust out the windshield of someone with whom I disagree because I am provoked by their existence? That would be cool because if there is one thing I would fucking love to do is bust out the windshield of an antifa asshole pulling up his mask.

"True, and if that is the will of the people of Charlotte, by popular vote or by act of the burghers, the statue should be removed, but it's still the right of the people to protest that decision, and to try to influence the government to change it. The alt-right were exercising their 1A rights to peaceably assemble and speak. The Anti-First-Amendment Blackshirts were there not to demonstrate for the statue's removal (they already won that fight) but, by criminal acts of intimidation, force, and violence, to deny the people the right to protest. They were there for the feeling of moral superiority in their virtue signaling and for the more visceral thrill of street fighting. I'm glad at least one of them was killed."

"Social media users are banding together to expose attendees at the Charlottesville white nationalist rally to make sure their employers, friends, and neighbors know their names.
"A man identified as Cole White was fired from his job at a Berkeley, California restaurant Top Dog when his participation in the rally was revealed by the Twitter account @YesYoureRacist..."
twitter users outing protesters
The whole point of the left-wing media (but I repeat myself) is to cement the concepts "Trump" and "right wing violence" together in a single thought bubble, without regard to the actual distance between the two.
It's a good statement by Trump. How and why he is getting dragged into this morass is somewhat bewildering, but that's modern-day politics for you.
"We must love each other, show affection for each other and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry and violence,”
I'm not a huge fan of these generalized ambiguities. It reminds me of Bush's "War on Terror." In World War 2, we declared war on Japan and Germany, and fought, surprise, surprise, the Japanese and Germans.
But in the 2000s, we began fighting "terror," but not radical Islam?
And, now, we must condemn "hatred," "bigotry" and "violence?" Is anybody for hatred, bigotry and violence? Who is committing the hatred, bigotry and violence?
The 2 most violent recent politic acts I've seen were:
1. July 2016: Sniper murdered 5 Dallas Police Officers at a BLM rally .
2. June 2017: Left-winger James Hodgkinson shot up a GOP softball game, critically injuring Congressman Steve Scalise.
Currently, Antifa seems to be the most notorious proponent of hatred, bigotry and violence. They show up to quash free speech, cause property damage, and injure people all in the name of fighting 'fascism."
And, Yes, the Nazis are still horrid.

You're surrounded by alt right Nazis in Walker-sha county, Inga. Did they look upset when you saw them at the grocery store? Are they firing AK-47 in the air? Polishing their jackboots in Muskego and looking for liberals to mow down?
After all you think all Trump voters are Nazis. Better find yourself a Secret Annex or something. No?
You're not afraid at all, are you? Because you know you're full of shit.

Does anyone identify himself as "alt right"? It's a term invented by the Democrats/Mainstream Media to make Trump supporters sound like a dangerous cult on the fringe of society. The same way they came up with "climate denier."

"True, and if that is the will of the people of Charlotte, by popular vote or by act of the burghers, the statue should be removed, but it's still the right of the people to protest that decision, and to try to influence the government to change it. The alt-right were exercising their 1A rights to peaceably assemble and speak. The Anti-First-Amendment Blackshirts were there not to demonstrate for the statue's removal (they already won that fight) but, by criminal acts of intimidation, force, and violence, to deny the people the right to protest. They were there for the feeling of moral superiority in their virtue signaling and for the more visceral thrill of street fighting. I'm glad at least one of them was killed."

Permit me to take this one on the merits:
“If you comparing KKK to BLM you’ve already shown what side you’re on.
One wants me dead due to the color of my skin; the other wants equality.”
~ unknown poster
The KKK was much worse than BLM. No doubt. But you have 2 asymmetrical points:
1. The KKK was once very powerful in the Southern states, had members elected to public office and caused a lot of death and destruction against blacks and sympathetic whites. But that was decades ago. Currently they are weak, powerless and socially ostracized.
2. You don't judge groups on what their goal is, you judge them on what they do.
BLM may "want" equality, but some of their worst elements caused mayhem and destruction in Ferguson, despite Attorney General Holder clearing the officer of any charges .
And, of course, 5 Dallas police-officers were murdered by a Sniper at a BLM rally in 2016. .
So, a proper comparison, today, would be something like Antifa v Unite the White - a sober assessment of what they do, not necessarily the views the espouse.
"Sunsong will be the one who smiles and passes out candy to the children before she loads them on the trains to the camps."
Classic projection.
"sunsong celebrates someone losing their job for the "crime" of wrongthink."
Just days ago people here were celebrating Milo exposing Google employees who were against Damore.
Now you are concerned with people being publicly exposed for their beliefs?
Sorry, but that train left the station here a couple days back.
Whitewash much? Communists in Germany worked with Nazis right up until June 1941, about the same time Communists and their fellow travelers in the United States turned on a dime and went from rabidly anti-war to pro-war, working as hard as possible to get the United States involved in another European war.
And why Nazis are always described as the very worst people to have ever existed, despite the greater brutality seen in the Maoist regime, among others. All the 20th century socialists and communists were awful, murderous, godless monsters but the Nazis always get the extra special no-good-nik treatment because they went against the Soviets.
The Soviets killed the kulaks as assiduously as Hitler did the European Jews. And the intelligentsia, don't forget.
Fuck 'em all, feed 'em shit.
I can understand the Jewish people holding them in eternal enmity, but genocide by race is no worse than genocide by class. Just as interracial slavery is no worse than intraracial. They all suck and you're dead or enslaved either way. To believe otherwise is racist by definition.
And even more importantly, the idiots who marched in Charlottesville are no kind of Nazis. They are pretending to be to get attention. They have no state, no power, and their influence only exists because antifa, BLM, and mainstream media have accentuated their position.
The counter protesters marched with Soviet flags, as evil an empire as the Nazis. Their high moral bona fides are suspect.
ah, apparently, that's sunsong's idea of Social Justice and Equality!
Again, how do you know that? You sure seem to like to attack people you don't agree with. What's that about?

So they don't like Antifa either?
Trump faces an interesting problem. The calls to fire Steve Bannon are coming hard and strong from within the Republican/Conservative axis because of Bannon's links to the alt-right. The problem is that Bannon is the only member of Trump's entourage who has any real ties to the people who elected him and Bannon is the only one with any ideas outside the usual Republican 'tax cuts for the rich' groupthink. If Bannon goes then any rationale for Trump's presidency goes with him. It is clear that Trump himself is a complete dummy when it comes to policy. Most of the other surviving members of Trump's entourage are either technocrats or non-ideological/clueless, in the case of his immediate family.

Check out the pics here...blacks were injured in Charlottesville. Talk about group think! Where the hell did you get the idea that there were no blacks there???
"Currently, Antifa seems to be the most notorious proponent of hatred, bigotry and violence. They show up to quash free speech, cause property damage, and injure people all in the name of fighting 'fascism."
Maybe I give them too much credit, but Trump and Sessions being pushed into going after those causing the violence is, to me, likely like the rabbit begging not to be thrown into the briar patch. The real violence is inevitably started by the Antifata fascist thugs. They are the ones who were there to disrupt the other side, that had a permit. They didn't. They just brought their masks, bats, and other weapons, and started beating people up whom they disagreed with. How does the DoJ/FBI look at the violence and try to bring the offenders to justice without going after the Antifa fascist thugs at least as much as they do their targets? And they will likely be there beforehand when the leftists again try to disrupt free speech, now that Trump and Sessions have been pushed into investigating. Should be interesting.
Not love, good character

This is a BLM activist writing about white leftists like you, sunsong:
"Perhaps the reason white allies emerged victorious is that, while many of the competitors played with anger and bigotry in their hearts, white allies played in a perpetual state of oblivion. They have no idea how terrible they are."
I never thought I'd agree with a BLM activist about anything, but I agree that you white liberals have no idea how terrible you are. :)
"There is no reason to fear neo-Nazis or racists screaming at Walmart checkout counters. You can see them coming. In fact, I applaud their passion and transparency. But white allies will stand close enough to smoothly slice open your gut so fast, you won’t even feel it until they’re stomping on your spilled entrails. And they are as slick as they are evil."
"I’ve had neighbors who marched at Black Lives Matter protests and then called the police on a random black kid walking through their neighborhood “looking suspicious” and carrying something under his hoodie. The “suspicious” thing he carried turned out to be a pamphlet showing the different kinds of cookie dough he was trying to sell to raise money for his band camp."
That's what you get for championing BLM, sunsong. The black activists think you are WORSE than the KKK.
To anybody who has read the history of the 1960's, radical black hatred of white liberals is nothing new. But none of the leftists here have read history. PB sez reading is for nerds.
Let's put all the groups made up of haters--nazis, antifa, blm, white supremicists, kkk, sjws, vegans--that want to kill each other in an arena and let them fight to the death. And I mean death. Only one is allowed to exit the arena alive. And he-- probably a he-- gets paid a million dollars if he will agree in writing to go away and never be heard from again-- no social media, no interviews, no running for office... just shut the fuck up forever.
And if a new group rises up and decides that there are other people that are unacceptable to them, but there is no group to hate them back, then they have to fight to the death amongst themselves. Same conditions as above.
People who want violence can have it. And leave the rest of us alone.
(Just kidding about the vegans.)

Plenty of blacks got bloodied by the Nazis in Charlottesville. One picture shows a black man being bounced of the hood of the NaziBoy's car.

Some truth, RM but Trump is a true believer. He's not being programmed by Bannon.
Also Trump has a couple of Jewish Bad Boys - Stephen Miller and Michael Anton - who are important thinkers on these issues as much as Bannon. They aren't leaving.
Trump doesn't like being bullied. And as a New Yorker he knows bullies.
Nobody on Trump's team promoted, inspired or agrees with what happened. And we all know that.
Opportunists and bullies on the left and among the Republican establishment, open borders crowd know it as well.

If you don't want to be attacked, don't post and repost some dumb shit's comment about how BLM is about "equality" like you approve of the sentiment. Because what you're sayng is that "equality" consists of shooting cops and looting black-owned businesses (not that it's OK when white- owned businesses are looted but the BLM thugs seem truly colorblind regarding what businesses they trash and burn. They trashed and looted a black-owned beauty salon in Ferguson that a woman had poured her heart into. Any compassion for THAT black woman?) That's what BLM does.
You drop these quotes and ditzy tweets like bird poop into threads, just because you kinda like the sound of them. We're supposed to accept them as wisdom? No. Many of them are just plain old stupid.
Again, if you don't want someone inferring what you are trying to say by those quotes, than speak for yourself instead.

But he's still saying "other hate groups" — which could include Antifa -
Yeah! Why should they get left off the hook? I'm sure they MUST have caused as much lost blood and treasure to America as the Nazis and their white supremacist precursor Confederates did!
Leave the white supremacist movements alone! How mean to not equivocate between them and any other group that never did 1/10th the violent mass casualty-inflicting damage to our country as the Nazis and Confederates! Mean!
"Unlike you and your traitorous friend Inga, I actually volunteered to defend this country and the freedom of the people in it"
And I thank you. As for Inga, well, now there's an excellent argument for tight controls on immigration. She has no respect for the Constitution and no grasp of what it is to be an American. Too bad she's not in Austria right now putting on her burka before she ventures into the street.

"In the US, murder is the leading cause of death for African American males aged 15 to 34. Between 1976 and 2008, African Americans were victims of 329,825 homicides.[99][100] In 2006, Federal Bureau of Investigation's Supplementary Homicide Report indicated that nearly half of the 14,990 murder victims were Black (7421).[101] In the year 2007 non-negligent homicides, there were 3,221 black victims and 3,587 white victims. While 2,905 of the black victims were killed by a black offender, 2,918 of the white victims were killed by white offenders. There were 566 white victims of black offenders and 245 black victims of white offenders.[102] The "white" category in the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) includes non-black Hispanics.[103] In London in 2006, 75% of the victims of gun crime and 79% of the suspects were "from the African/Caribbean community."[104] Murder demographics are affected by the improvement of trauma care, which has resulted in reduced lethality of violent assaults – thus the murder rate may not necessarily indicate the overall level of social violence.[105]"
Whatever anyone does, don't ever call these Trump apologists Nazi-simps. Everyone knows there's a difference between a Trump apologist and a Nazi sympathizer.
Just like they would never equivocate between the left or European socialism and Mao or Stalin. They would never, ever do that.
So one must be just as fair with these Trumpian Nazi-simps - oops, I mean Trump apologists.
Hey, if Bannon poll-tested "the race thing" and found his guy's supporters didn't care, then any cover given to white supremacist/nationalist groups is all good, right?

Thought and articulate, essay like expression of it are two different things.
Trump is a blowhard but he knows the difference between constructing a building and making a proposal.
My point is I think Trump is a true believer in results, how he expresses it or gets there will be done in a Trumpish manner not a lawyerly manner.
And the "ball moving forward" issue does involve getting other people on his team helping him win the game.
A sizable percentage of the Republican establishment envy him personally and hate his agenda and they have been fumbling the ball at every opportunity.

No, sadly, pointing out your stupidity does not seem to accomplish anything, because, as Angel Dyne and others have noted you appear to be a bit retarded.
Nyamujal: When you read some histories of Nazi Germany, one of the chief arguments Hitler made was that he was standing up to violent leftists who were traitors.
Well if Hitler said that, we can confidently conclude that there were no violent leftists in Germany at that time.
And it follows from that there are no violent lefties in Germany, or anywhere else in Europe, or in the United States, now.
Lefty logic.

As long as we're quoting around here, I'd like to quote Ace of the Ace of Spades blog:
I think Identity Politics of all kinds are odious and poisonous to the individual -- if your value is your race or gender, well, you have branded yourself as someone of extraordinarily low value, haven't you?
But as John Sexton points out, you can't expect a culture to praise all sorts of Identity Politics -- flat-out racist groups and gender supremacists -- but say that one group doesn't get to play by the same rules.
Either it's all poisonous garbage, or it's all got something of merit to it.
I believe the former. But the media -- and the establishment right political class -- cannot continue with this incoherent claim that Identity Politics are permissible for e everyone except The One Group Which is Truly Odious and Cursed by God.
People will not accept that. No one will accept his subordination without a fight of some kind.
Well, liberal white cucks will. But they have no self-respect.
No, sadly, pointing out your stupidity does not seem to accomplish anything, because, as Angel Dyne and others have noted you appear to be a bit retarded.
Really? And yet, you feel a need to attack "a bit retarded" person? LOL
Do you feel threatened by ideas? Really? Even retarded ideas? lol
Why do feel a need top personally attack? Why not just provide an argument for or against?
"Do you feel threatened by ideas? Really? Even retarded ideas? lol"
I don't know, sunsong. Maybe someday you'll have something resembling "an idea" in your head and you'll share it and we'll see.
"Why do feel a need top personally attack? Why not just provide an argument for or against?"
Because when she's bested in an argument and her back is up against the wall, she lashes out.
These comments have quickly degenerated into the most juvenile, asinine "discussion" I've ever seen on Althouse.

No, he's sitting there saying to himself "How can the KKK help me today?"
Don't you honestly think Trump's answer to that hypothetical question would be - "Go away"? "Cease to exist"?
I understand that Donald Trump has hurt you. The election results and Trump himself have been emotionally traumatizing to many people.
And as a Trump supporter I appreciate legitimate criticisms of Trump - his lack of intellect, shallow, vulgar, crass, excessive age and weight, etc
But we need to be honest and state that in relation to the Big Three determiners of American political morality - blacks, Jews and gays - Donald Trump has been consistently on the opposite side from the KKK, neo nazis etc.
Donald Trump has NEVER been sympathetic to or supported aggression or contempt for any of these people.
And Trump's base would LOVE to have the majorities from these groups find religion and join the make America great team.
Pretending Donald Trump or his team are pro KKK, neo nazi is not a rational belief.
So now you know why I prefer to post quotes...
It is a waste of time to try and talk with you

Meh. I've seen worse.
Inga's idea of "besting" someone in a argument is to call them "delusional."
I take it she didn't make the debate team in high school.
Now, can you argue like an adult or do you just want to repeat yourself the way senile old women tend to do?
"Don't you honestly think Trump's answer to that hypothetical question would be - "Go away"? "Cease to exist"?"
Maybe now, but not back during the campaign. He welcomed the support of the Alt Right and white supremacists during the campaign. Now it's come back to bite him in the ass. Good.
Whatever you said, Mountain John, that was pretty dumb.

I just posted one too.
Do you have any intelligent criticism to make of it?
At 4:47 Unknown quoted and praised a post by Unknown. I think it's clear that Unknown is using at least 2 names here and inadvertently posted under the wrong one.
