Trump's got more dog whistles than Petco.

No. White supremacists were empowered when Democrats branded everyone white supremacists.

Could you perhaps offer your point of view on the subject? I mean, if you think this is an important discussion I would think you must have an opinion about it. Give us something to work with here.

I voted yes. The Charlottesville fiasco, the support he has gotten and apparently welcomed from David Duke, Richard Spencer, and others of that ilk, the general tenor of his campaign and Presidency, which may not have been intended to empower white supremacists but had the effect of doing just that...

Each individual is responsible for his or her own actions.

If you're too much of a coward to own your actions or too much of a coward to hold individuals solely responsible for their actions then I have no use for you.

Though to be fair, I could also say the same about Barack Obama's election and Presidency, but the difference there was that white supremacists didn't exactly support him....
