THAT person? Yeah, he probably needs to get his emotions in check.
The emotions were flying all over the place. Why do you act as though this one guy means only the Alt Right were emotional in this? BLM has been killing cops and Anti-FA has been assaulting people with bike locks. These are two HIGHLY emotionally unstable groups itching to kill each other.

They attract the worst elements of our society.

Yes. Now can we attend to the matter at hand?

The matter at hand is that two unstable extremist groups duked it out until someone innocent was killed.

... and his cabinet includes people like Bannon and Gorka. Trump's father was KKK and was arrested in New York during a violent anti-Italian immigrant anti-Catholic rally. Trump is consistently slow or reluctant to criticize the white nationalist movements, including back in Feb 2016 when he sparked controversy for not disavowing David Duke. Trump's white supremacy sympathies dovetails into his admiration of Vladimir Putin, who is also an anti-gay, pro-white nationalist/traditionalist.

There is no use arguing with the biased partisan people who will never see it both ways. Those of us who see blame and craziness on both sides are rare. This is P&OC. Some people here are as crazy as the protestors themselves (not naming names or insinuating anyone in particular).

I've made my points here and you have too. You've done a good job IMO. But just like the protestors won't change each other's minds, you and I won't change anyone's here.

It's a beautiful Sunday, at least where I live.

Trump has the least diverse cabinet since Reagan.

Trump's company was sued multiple times for racial discrimination in housing.

Trump refuses to denounce Nazis. Who could imagine that in 2017 we would have a potus who would refuse to speak out against Nazis?

Bannon is not a white nationalist. Stop with this insane banter. He is an economic nationalist and at best you could say a cultural chauvinist. He thinks anyone of any race can be a part of America but he believes in culture and country first. That's about as bad as it gets. This idea that he's racist is a left wing fever dream in search of enemies.

The left mocked the right for always saying Obama was a closet Muslim and secretly sympathized with the Islamic radicals because he never called them Islamic terrorists.

It's the same rhetoric.

Those that disapprove of President Trump are at 65% now. Those idiots! Thanks for setting the example after accusing another poster of being emotional.

There's disapproval, then there's the pure irrational hatred you see on the internet. Been on twitter lately? People are nuts. They're also a minority though. But a strong one.

I am not being emotional. I am rational and easily seeing both sides here. I also refuse to engage with people who are so strongly one sided and refuse to see the other. That's not emotional.

You're right. But these people accuse us of being Alt-Right sympathizers for saying BOTH sides are wrong. It makes me think they're the ones sympathetic to BLM and Anti-FA, and believe in the whole "punch a Nazi" assault narrative.
