Charlottesville: Yet Another Trump Failure

[bodecea]

GOP members of Congress criticize Trump's comments: 'We should never hesitate to call out hate'

Tweeting in response to Trump's off-the-cuff remarks, Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan of Wisconsin called white supremacy "repulsive."
"We must be clear. White supremacy is repulsive. This bigotry is counter to all this country stands for. There can be no moral ambiguity," he tweeted.
Ryan was one of a number of Republican leaders who took to the social media platform Tuesday evening to disagree with Trump's argument that those who protested against the neo-Nazi rally-goers shared some of the responsibility for spreading violence.
Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake released a statement Tuesday evening on the President's latest comments regarding the events in Charlottesville.
"We cannot accept excuses for white supremacy and acts of domestic terrorism. We must condemn them. Period," the statement reads.
Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, criticized Trump on Twitter Tuesday night.
"There's no moral equivalency between racists & Americans standing up to defy hate& bigotry. The President of the United States should say so," McCain said in a tweet.
Sen. Todd Young, an Indiana Republican, tweeted, "This is simple: we must condemn and marginalize white supremacist groups, not encourage and embolden them."
Sen. Orrin Hatch, the longest currently serving Republican senator, wrote, "We should never hesitate to call out hate. Whenever and wherever we see it," in a tweet signed with his initials.
Speaking to CNN's Wolf Blitzer on "The Situation Room" Tuesday, GOP Rep. from Texas Will Hurd said that Trump should "apologize."
"Racism, bigotry, anti-Semitism of any form is unacceptable and the leaders of the free world should be unambiguous about that," he said.
Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, a Florida Republican, said of the comments: "Just no."

Time for those that believe in America to stand up to the neo-nazis and all those that support them.

Republilcans in congress are cowards....this is why antifa and black lives matter feel free to murder police, and attack peaceful civilians...no one has called them out before....Trump did.....

When everyone says that trump is wrong accept for David Duke and people like you..............................recognize your fellow travelers.

Bbuutt the Russians!!!!!!

You loons give up on that shit? Lol

Nope. The shit is piling up all around Trump more every day. It's not that he is ineffective. It's the he fucks up everything he touches. I thought him having no experience in anything associated with the presidency was supposed to be an advantage. What happened?

You mean except for the stock market...you mean except for backing down the North Korean nut job...you mean except for the jobs numbers.....

Trump is running circles around you assholes which is why you have to lie about him....

‘It was like watching a human Twitter feed.

A combative and unrestrained President Donald Trump opened his authentic political soul, in possibly the most memorable news conference in presidential history, that is certain to become a defining moment of his administration.

It was supposed to be a routine event at Trump Tower in New York to tout the President's infrastructure plan.

But the session quickly veered off course into one of the most surreal political moments in years as Trump unloaded about the fallout from the weekend's protests by "alt-right" activists, white supremacists and neo-Nazis in Virginia.
[…]
On the substance, it was a performance that quickly emboldened white nationalist groups and appeared certain to heighten racial tensions and fear in the country.

There's no chance that Trump's political team can finesse this one, or walk it back.

But the tone and the spectacle of Trump's unchained performance was equally stunning.
[…]
In the most incredible moment, as he stood at a podium bearing the seal of the President of the United States, Trump tore at the nation's racial fault lines by appearing to offer a pass to a racist and neo-Nazi movement.
[..]
The President's fury was first sparked when he was challenged by reporters on his handling of Charlottesville, evidence of how Trump's extreme sensitivity to personal slights sometimes leads him into politically self-destructive behavior.

It was a display that will renew questions about the suitability of Trump's temperament for the presidency, and at a time of increasing tensions around the world that will exacerbate fears he will be unable to control his emotions at a time of crisis as commander-in-chief.
[…]
In the long and tortured history of a nation still trying to work through its complicated story on race, Trump's meltdown will stand out, as a moment ripped from the darkest pages of history and transposed into the 21st Century.

In the process, he appears to have abdicated any claim to the traditional presidential role as a moral voice for the nation and the world.’

Yet most on the reprehensible right will continue to blindly support the miscreant that is Trump, someone who has again proven himself to be unfit to be president.

As with Trump the alt-right never takes responsibility for their actions. To them admitting they were wrong, even when so obvious, is death. It is a huge red flag of arrested development.

What exactly has trump done to effect jobs? Obama's average jobs numbers were as good or better than trump's and that includes the free fall we were in when Obama took office. If he wouldn't have run his mouth like a petulant 4th grader, we wouldn't have had the Korean scare to start with, and the stock market is ok but not any better than expected.

Good for you. That is one of your more intelligent posts.

‘After a brief round of remarks on his plans to revamp US infrastructure, Trump offered to take questions from reporters. Over the next 15 minutes, he defended racist demonstrators, claimed his initial statement was muted because he doesn't like to speak before having all "the facts," and suggested the movement to take down Confederate monuments around the country was an effort to "change history" and "change culture."’

Trump sounds just as idiotic and wrong as one of our own USMB rightwing nitwits.

Even some republicans in congress are finally finding the balls to criticize the Orange Screwball in Chief. Finally.

It's sad, but trump is becoming more spineless, vile, and hateful by the day.

He's too much of a coward to criticize his boyfriend, Putin. And now he's far too cowardly to call the Nazis and KKK what they are: American Terrorist groups. That's all they have ever been. They have a long disgusting history to prove it.

Remember when trump was calling on President Obama to resign because he wouldn't call muslim terrorists, radical islamic terrorists? Today, trump, has proven himself to be a total hypocrite and coward. He will NEVER be able to live this down. Best of all, every sickening moment of it is on video.

This is the Orange AHs legacy: hatred, racism, and cowardice.
