Take your head out of your liberal indoctrination and show us FACTS THAT Trump supports and sympathizes with racists.
He has denounced them multiple times.
His closest associate is a Jew.
His daughter has become Jewish.
One of his top executives for decades was a black women who has stated multiple times he never showed an ounce of racism.
He has appointed blacks and hispanics in his administration.

FACTS please, not liberal gobellygoop.

Extreme white supremacists is what we saw in Charlottesville...those idiots draw themselves out into the public and get themselves fired from their jobs. I'm more concerned with the everyday white supremacists that get on juries, become cops, become elected officials, they vote in people that support white supremacists ideologies. These people may never utter a racial slur but they most definitely operate quietly with this mindset. These are the people that get on juries and let a Michael Slager shoot a man in the back and he walks free. These are the people that vote Trump in then get mad when gets the ball rolling on removing their ACA. Literally voting against their best interests.

But, aside from the driver that drove into the crowd at C'ville, and that case has not been adjudicated yet, it so far is only the Left's BLM and AntiFa that are willing and actually committing horrendous damage, inciting violence, and murdering opponents.
Correct.

Nazis and supremacists are very small in number and power.

Its not 1924 with the KKK marching into the Democratic convention, having a Klanbake. Its not even a few decades later, when one of their leaders was US Democratic Senator Byrd.

These groups are nothing consequential anymore.

Citations are necessary for the claim of an ISIS endorsement.

Are you truly that thick or are you pretending to be dumb in order to win an argument?
David Duke endorsing Trump doesn't mean anything. Trump's reaction to the endorsement does. In an effort to curry favor with white supremacists he pretended to not know who David Duke is. He went so far as to feign ignorance (like you just did) about the KKK.

Let's make this about Hillary so that you can follow...

Reporter: "Hey Hillary, ISIS just endorsed you"
Hillary: "what's ISIS"?

But according to the left, it seems we are living in the 1950s, where white supremacist and Nazi groups are rampamt in the US and are attempting to take over



Why who does this hysteria benefit?
Because they are and have been growing since Obama's election. It was fear that minority groups would get/have/do more than their majority counterparts.

More facts:

The UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and the most oppressive Muslim regimes against women and gays sent her 10s of millions; she gladly, happily, eagerly took the money.

How is that acceptable from the left base?


But hey, let's focus on the important stuff, like Melania's shoes.

THAT's patently false as well. When Obama took office there were about 5000 members of white supremacist groups... and now, there are about 5000 members of white supremacist groups.

Consider there are about 12,000 bikers in 1% gangs like Hells Angles, Vagabonds (Vagos), Mongols, Outlaws...etc.

And you know that because their newsletter has been scaled back to monthly? Or their bakes sales are semi-annually?


Seems to me the only ones who know how active they are 1) members or 2) FBI unit on American terrorism.


My guess is you are neither.

Gov't estimates show them in single digit thousands. In 1920s, KKK numbered 3 million, or 1 in 30 adult males. 1924 Democratic convention featured a Klanbake and massive KKK rally.

These are small fringe groups now. I hope we never give them the publicity the pre rally hysteria gave them in Charlottesville.
