Trump Press Conference Q&A on Charlottesville

[Dr.3D]

I'll bet he has people looking over the video footage, looking for people who committed violence on either side and those they can identify, will be arrested and charged with the crime.

 

[Madison320]

I don't like the part where he called it murder. That has yet to be determined.

 

[Swordsmyth]

Every time they pushed him about it he said things that made them look worse.

Seems to be underway.


Protesters could be charged for bringing down Durham, N.C., Confederate statue

18 mins ago - Woman arrested for bringing down Durham, N.C., Confederate statue ... renamed from Lee Park — was the site of a similar protest in May.
Takilya Thompson used a ladder to scale the podium, climb the statue, and help pull it down.

Well, that Freudian slip sure was something.

"Okay, what about the alt-left that came charging at us?"

At least he's comfortable admitting that he's a Nazi.

Also, I'm still not sure what the "alt-left" is aside from a made up phrase to make false equivalencies easier. We know "alt-right" is just rebranded white supremacy/neo-Nazism, but I'm not aware of any leftist attempt at rebranding anti-Nazism. They kind of relish in their opposition to Nazism with a name like Antifa.

Um, no, you missed the part where he said that only a contingent were Nazis and white nationalists, many where there to protest taking down a historical statue... some were their protesting for free speech and against political violence.. and Antifa was attacking them all.

Antifa attacks anybody on the right, they call them all Nazis. Have a "Make Bitcoin Great Again" hat? You're a nazi. Support Trump? You're a nazi. Want lower taxes? You're a nazi. Soon it will be, 'White? You're a nazi.'

But go ahead, keep playing into the mainstream media bullshit, see where it gets you.

Is that what he was doing? Are you sure he wasn't admitting to being a Robert E. Lee fan? A lot of people are. After all, he stood up against slavery in a time and place where that was an unpopular stance. Or maybe he was admitting to being a person who gets permits. Lord knows he has gotten enough of them. Or maybe he was intimating that he's the kind of person who doesn't use violence as a first resort.

So you don't think your fellow AntiFa members were wrong to start the violence?

He certainly has trouble denouncing Nazis. He emotionally angry-tweeted about Meryl Streep's Golden Globes speech but had to be forced into denouncing Nazis days later. Makes you think.

I think you're taking my post too seriously. And no, Trump doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. His past (including recent) is enough to show me his true character.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to acptulsa again.

OR maybe he figured that "many sides" clearly included the NAZIs.
Just change your moniker to AntiFa and get it over with, your cover is blown.

"Many sides" didn't commit an act of domestic terrorism by trying to mow down protesters with a vehicle.

I think the overwhelming majority of your posts are a Stalinist calling Fascists names.

I couldn't take such a thing seriously on a double dog dare.

That's great. Don't reply to my posts anymore, then. We'd be doing each other a favor.

 

[phill4paul]

He gave 'em hell. And I say good on him. They are fake news. The do have an agenda. They do only present one side. Fuck 'em.

 

[Swordsmyth]

No the other side committed domestic terrorism by using violence (potentially deadly force) to try to silence the free speech of those they oppose, they just didn't think of using a car.

If I stop laughing at you, you're going to do me a favor?

Like the next Stalinist tinpot dictator, you seem to be implying that doing you a favor is its own reward, because you just failed to offer me a single damned thing in return.

 

[dannno]

He certainly has trouble denouncing Nazis.

Let's see, he denounced David Duke back in 2000 without even being asked, he has denounced David Duke multiple times since he started running for President and he has denounced Nazis twice now since the attack even though the modern "neo-Nazis" or whatever haven't actually done anything to hurt anybody..

I mean, these "nazis" at that event look like a bunch of panzies running around with their stupid tiki torches and their stupid nazi salutes, punching like a t-rex, WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THEM?!?!

And YOU are fake news.

Correct! As best as I could tell that was one person.
