Trump Gives White Supremacists an Unequivocal Boost

He's the worst. It makes me physically sick that this is the world we live in.

 

Man it's been a fucked up year already.

 

Did anyone have "Defends Nazi and KKK" in their impeachment pool? For anyone that watched that Vice documentary, here is the star, nearly broken:

The hypocrisy of saying you are trying to do everything right and peaceful when all of the things you say and stand for are the exact opposite. You can't have it both ways.

 

Fucking dumb idiot scum

 

It's kind of absurd how much worse things keep getting. I knew it was going to be bad, but it feels like someone's messing with the universe to see how much lower we can go every couple weeks.

I would literally rather live in Idiocracy.

 

"peaceful nazi" is a contradiction in terms

 

I mean, he could just not be a Nazi. That would probably solve things for him.

 

I mean, he did ask for a solution, and you just gave it to him.

 

No you don't

 

So the lefties are criticizing Trump for speaking the truth while they continue to divide our country even further.

 

Is this satire y/n

 

Nahhhh.

 

this isnt really important at all but i hate that the vid caption says "balls his eyes out"

 

I've voted Republican up until last year. Fuck this guy! He has no clue, no decency, no diplomacy, no morals, and no right to be in the position he's in.

 

I think they're just criticizing that he's defending actual nazis. Pretty crazy people would criticize that, huh?

 

Even if leftists had been equally responsible for the violence in Charlottesville, Trump should have still condemned white supremacy until his face turned blue to give himself proper distance from them since they also happen to be his supporters. He didn't. That's a terrible political move and a terrible person move. Our president has more power to unite or divide the country than anyone else and not standing firm against white supremacy causes nothing but division, except among white supremacists, which is terrifying.

And even if leftists had been equally responsible for the violence in Charlottesville, at least it would be for the purpose of fighting injustice as opposed to a terrifying ideology that the color of your skin somehow makes you superior to all other people. It's the same kind of thinking that killed millions and millions of people less than a century ago. There is no place for it. Trump should be using this as an opportunity to talk about the Holocaust and the dangers of white supremacy, but instead he's whining about the media criticizing him while confirming the very things they're criticizing him for.

And for "fake news" he sure seems to talk about them a lot. I wonder why he keeps addressing something that isn't real? He must be a little crazy.

By the way, I'm a conservative white southern Christian male who runs the same circles as a lot of other conservative white southern Christian males and there are very few people in my circles who can even barely tolerate Trump. So if leftists are dividing the country by criticizing Trump and highlighting deeply troubling issues, I guess we're dividing the country too by doing the same.

Nope nope nope. Blaming the left for everything just isn't going to fly.

 

Wonderful response.

 

I also still have no idea what a "leftist" or a "righty" is, despite the fact it's used so much in lazy namecalling. This is a case of racists vs. non-racists, it really shouldn't have anything to do with the political spectrum.

 

When did I say the news was fake? Did you see what Anderson Cooper said on CNN? All they do is pick apart everything Trump says and try to divide our country even more. They should be focusing on the actual issues. What did Trump say about the protests that wasn't true?

 

The fact that he didn't completely denounce white supremacy on its own is a very huge problem and paints a very sad and real picture of the world we're in right now.

 

The quotation marks around "fake news" were quoting Trump, not you. My bad.

Trump, our president, not immediately condemning white supremacy in light of white supremacists being his supporters IS an issue. It's what he didn't say, not what he said. And even though he did single out white supremacy briefly, he only did so briefly without carefully addressing the concerns of the people in this area. Then he goes on a tear about "fake news" dismissing the issue when, in fact, it's not just the media and the political left who are concerned by his lack of concern.

As for what Trump does say, his language is as divisive as anyone who's ever run for office, much less for someone who's actually in office. He condemns himself with his own words as much as the media does.
