This is a somewhat interesting article or commentary. I found it on Marketwatch, kind of a liberal minded outfit. Kind of controversial, I guess.

Thanks for proving my point that the Left is incapable of understanding basic English.

In that video Trump explicitly stated that the neo-Nazi's were "bad". He never said they were "provoked". All he did was ask the reporters there whether the violent Antifa crowd (a form of Nazism if there ever was one) ALSO shared some of the responsibility for the violence based on THEIR actions. And I suspect he asked this because the MSM blamed ONLY the neo-Nazis for the violence in the days following that incident. They regularly failed to mention the fact that violent Antifa Leftists showed up with weapons and attacked people.

Leftists are unbelievably selective in what they choose to remember or report. He was simply calling them out on their own failure to report the whole story.

Incredibly you are incapable of understanding this.

Trump brought them out in the open.

Now we get to take a good look at them.
Who brought them out?

This quote is from George W Bush(43) who just made a speech on the status of the Country - "Bigotry in the US seems emboldened right now." Who and what do you think he was referring to?

He is neither media or a liberal right?

Trump defended the right to free speech for both sides as it should be.

Let those nationlists speak. If no one shows up that's all the more better.

No, it actually is not the 'media hoopla' in this case.

Governor Scott declared a State of Emergency due to the upcoming Hate Speech.

So you can accuse Rick Scott of making a big 'hoopla' out of it.

It is clear to me that the fat man's courting of this evil, but small part of the population, is directly responsible for the reemergence of these creeps and their racist philosophy. Also hate crimes are on the rise and fat man owns this too.

In my opinion, and prior to Trump arriving on the scene, we weren't a perfect country with regard to race relations, but we were on a good glide path to becoming a Country more accepting of both racial and religious differences.

However as a direct result of Trump's acceptance and wet kiss embrace of these hateful white nationalists/neo nazis, it feels like we are on the cusp of of another very ugly period with regard to racial and religious division.

How is this Making America Great Again?
Too funny, the dems complain about 'the rise of the WNs" and blame trump.


The blame belongs directly inthe lap of the hate fear mongering democrats, their ads so convinving, that the white nationalists actually believed what the dems were saying.

Trump said the Nazis were attacked.

So attacking someone isn't provoking them?

You don't seem to understand the definition of provoked.

Apparently you were born on November 8, 2016.

I have news for you, race relations have been going downhill since 2008.
