Obama hosted a racist hate group in the Oval Office-and you're concerned about 1 member of "Proud Boys" in the audience at a Trump rally? Do tell.

Interesting. What are the lies about the Proud Boys that you saw in there?

The Proud Boys are a bunch of guys looking for a fight and want to cloak it in the name of God and Country. There is nothing different about them than a lot of groups that came before including the Klan.

The difference being that instead of targeting by race, or religion they are going straight to extremist liberals because those guys are the same type of group. Guys looking for a fight. Except they are anti conservative types. We've had those types of groups before as well.

These guys were made for each other. We should have cage matches and maybe real rumbles in the ring and charge admission. It'd be great fun and it would keep them from tearing stuff up in the streets.

Tell me what "Far Right" actually means. The Proud Boys are loosely organized fraternity that was mostly started as a joke. They don't advocate hatred for any group. They went too far when they advocated for violence, even though they only ever advocated for "punching back" and acting in self defense. They are too willing to engage in violence for my liking. But that makes them neither "Far Right" nor a "Hate Group." Misguided perhaps, but not a far right hate group. Some members have done terrible things and they always tend to get kicked out for it.

The trouble is, the Left swallows their own side's propaganda too easily. Still, after exerting incredible pressure on the founder Gavin McInnes, they got him to quit the Proud Boys, removing the largest factor keeping the Proud Boys from being radicalized and pushed to the farther right and extreme.

I'll clarify - Proud Boys are one of the many faces of the New American Fascist. Don't be afraid of the "F" word.

And since they are not a hate group, they like anyone else is free to attend any rally they want to support or does the Left not allow that freedom to anyone except themselves?
LOL, you don't listen to trump much do you?

This administration needs a good purging of the third rate people Trump has brought in.

Indeed, more than one.
Heck racist and fraud Al Sharpton was in the WH over 100 times, and the leftist media didn't say a peep about it.

C'mon, we all know the Left would never consider a 'minority' to be 'racist.'
