This will be Trump's Waterloo so to speak. He maybe a lame duck this early in his tenure. Republicans and the rest of the western world may not expect very much of him past this point. Being the political novice that he is, he didn't know this was not a battle to try an fight. He should have given a boilerplate response and moved on, now it will haunt him every time there is a nazi rally, and there will many more.

Yes, it sounds like an oxymoron but it's really the best way to describe it.

Or maybe, I loathe hate?
He sounds just like the Democrat leadership.

I can see some hypocrisy from the right too (lot of times it´s ironic and reactionary to the insanity) i mean this is overall a ****show but the cognitive dissonance, hysterism and hypocrisy from the left is absolutely out of charts. People remember the islamic terrorist attacks (which are happening every day in the world), what happened to Steve Scalise, the Dallas shooting etc.. Just compare the reaction from the left from this cases to Charlottesville. It´s astonishing.

Trump supporters are a cult. I always refrained from saying that previously, but it is true. They are mindless followers of a cult of personality that is Trump. Trump has all but admitted that he gets a great deal of support from racists.

David Duke looked into the camera a day or so again and told Trump to remember who put Trump in office. Trump listened and then had that atrocious news conference giving cover to white supremacists.

Trump is tearing this country a part. His supporters are complicit in this.

Hillary was right many of Trump supporters are deplorable. I will go further, and say many of his supporters hate this country and its institutions and want to see it destroyed.

Don't believe it?

Read the numerous pro-Trump posts and threads.

What happened that day in Charlottesville and the reaction to LE is what set the foundation for the 8/11 rally in Charlottesville.

You also said they were chanting "Allah Akbar", which at least gives it an implication of being religiously-motivated. You also say "hate messages" without giving any context. Were the hate-messages aimed at the Church and Christianity?

What I'm saying is, your example is stupid, because it isn't anywhere near the same. The "White-Nationalists" were only near the church, because the statues was near the church.
Actually the other person said changing Allah Akbar, my original post asking the same question didn't say that but that is completely irrelevant because this is about terrorism not religion. The WS were shouting things like "blood and soil" (straight from the original Nazis) and "You will not replace us" (scared of losing their positions of privilege I guess), something meant to terrorise the mostly-black congregation.

Oh would it be ok if other terrorists are only surrounding a church because its near their supposed real target?

Available on standby, but they could not be everywhere. Many were in the park to keep a buffer between the two groups.

Many where found to be living here in the US. It was Jews and Israelis that hunted them down to bring them to justice.

The same could be said of Obama supporters.
