Not at all, you have the wrong guy when it comes to Trump.

Trump has hung himself with his words so frequently you shouldn't have to cherry-pick phrases out of context to make your point.

You had people in that group. Excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name."

To be more precise, if my memory doesn't fail me, the "neo-Nazis" (in reality a small number of knuckleheads), met annually in that park for decades without any disturbances. It wasn't until the left made an issue of removing the statue AND to have it removed on the day the "neo-Nazis" were to hold their meeting that a deadly conflict ensued. So, was the death of a young lady worth the removal of a statue?

FYI - the "neo-Nazis" still have their annual meet in that Charlottesville park.
So you're blaming "the left" for a neo-Nazi (or excuse me, is "knucklehead" the preferred nomenclature?) murdering a young lady? And yes, said "knucklehead" had his day in court and was convicted of first-degree murder.

Also, it really says something that so-called "conservatives" these days glorify traitors like Robert E. Lee. And from a state that proudly fought for the Union, no less!

Agree, enter stage right, gaslighting American people for over a century with Lost Cause mythologies.

How Trumpism Is Becoming America’s New “Lost Cause”
We really have arrived at, it appears, two irreconcilable Americas with their own information systems, their own facts, their own story, their own narrative,” says David Blight, the legendary Yale historian whose work studying the Civil War and Reconstruction Era won him a Pulitzer Prize.

As Donald Trump’s more extremist followers cling to his bogus claims of a stolen election, wrapping Trump’s complaints into a nationalist counternarrative driven by racial anxiety and anger at the government, they risk creating a legacy that will divide the country long after the man himself leaves the stage. “In search of a story—in search of a history, in search of a leader, in search of anything they can attach to—lost causes tend to become these great mythologies whose great conspiracy theories tend to explain everything,” says Blight.

Still waiting for clarification:

So you can take your little far left guardian article and throw it on the pile of rubbish with the daily beast, mother jones etc

Those were mostly peaceful protests, fire-bombings, lootings, robberies, and murders.

Great response, because of course you have none like any typical leftist. I await your list of terror attacks committed by so called white supremacist terror groups in the last year.
