We can argue politics and policy all day, I'm fine with that... but everybody no matter what your politics or party should be condemning these guys, they are sick! When you try and change the subject or spread the blame it is a form of watering down their offenses.
Well, you and the group may be interested in a few facts I found out last night . . . .
- Donald Trump has been denouncing the KKK, Duke and all of the Neo-Nazis BY NAME for AT LEAST the past SIXTEEN YEARS!!! How many times do you have to keep repeating the same thing OVER & OVER? It was just LAST YEAR! It was a huge issue for weeks! Has everyone forgotten it? In March of 2016, he was asked at least a DOZEN TIMES by the media after the long defunct and irrelevant Duke must have made the passing comment that he liked Trump over Hillary. For all we know, he liked Trump simply because of Trump's starkly pro-American stance! Even Nazi's must have more to their lives than just hatred of Jews! And over and over again several times a day, Trump told the press: YES! I FIRMLY AND WHOLEHEARTED DENOUNCE DUKE! THE NAZIS! THE KKK! I DENOUNCED THEM! THEY ARE REVOLTING AND DESPICABLE! THEY ARE VILE! To the point to where it was getting ridiculous! Now a year later he has to do that all over again just because he denounced them again, along with the Antifa and any others that were fomenting hatred and violence in Charlottesville and elsewhere???????
- I saw another video interviewing Trump from 2001 where he sat there and in discussing the whole matter of the Nazi movement THEN, clearly and unabashedly denounced all that is connected to them and said they were a blight on our society IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS. And the Media know this; they follow, record and keep track of ALL OF THAT.
It has gotten ridiculous in its Pavlovian stature:
"Do you support the KKK? NO! What about now? NO! Now? NO! Now? NO! Do you support them yet? What? You didn't answer us immediately? You must support them!" I see the very same shit tried here on this board over & over where a certain group tries to play that juvenile game.
- Someone on Fox went back THIRTY YEARS using THREE search engines looking up every clash over that period of time where Neo-Nazis, KKK and the like got into a conflict, fight, violent riot or whatever at one of their rallies and demonstrations with protesters and he could not find ONE INSTANCE WHERE THE STANDING PRESIDENT OF THAT TIME DENOUNCED THE NAZIS BY NAME!!!! Nor were they asked to. Now I dare anyone to prove that wrong.
- Ironically, HILLARY CLINTON as just one case I can think of actually endorsed KNOWN KKK member Senator Byrd, Democrat, and exuded KUDOS for the man as HER MENTOR!!! Meantime, BILL CLINTON did the same thing with SENATOR FULBRIGHT who had similar ties!!! I believe Clinton even dedicated a memorial to him. There was never any consternation let alone national and international outrage over that or any other time.
This entire nit-picking scandal now over HOW Trump condemned the Nazis, WHEN he condemned them, what color tie he was wearing when he condemned them is just another carefully laid out trap for Trump to walk through like hot coals set up in a way that is as absurd as it is in its inability to offer ANY path for him to navigate through without heaping scorn on him, in their never-ending quest to hurt him, and the Media counts on the short memories of the public. There was no "right" answer for Trump and had he done what they say exactly as they claim, he simply would have been criticized for something else just as he was a year ago. The actual record shows that
DONALD TRUMP HAS SPOKEN OUT MORE IN DIRECT REFUTATION OF THE NAZI MOVEMENT THAN ANY OTHER PRESIDENT IN MODERN HISTORY!!! And yet the gullible public still bite at the issue like guppies. It has now gone on ad nauseum to the point that he and many others are plainly sick of it as just more of the overtly Fake News Hostile Media barking at his heels trying to erase his election. I for one won't have anything to do with falling for it; it is just another non-issue the media is twitching like a dead frog's leg for all of the attention they can muster and it is shocking the wide number of people all over that have fallen for it. As always, the Leftist Media and all related try to create this alter-reality just like the failed Russia investigation to where Trump has the least ties and THEY actually have the most; LIKEWISE, now Trump, the man with the most instances of loudly condemning KKK and Nazi types is again under attack by the very people with the
most connections to them.
