Seems like I agree with Conservatives more than Clem does these days.Trump Off the Prompter - By Rich Lowry
Trump turned in a truly extraordinary performance at his Trump Tower press conference just now that was probably meant, in part, as a middle finger to his advisers who convinced him to read yesterday’s remarks.
He stood by his specific denunciation of the Nazis and white supremacists but justified his vague statement on Saturday by saying he needed more facts.
That might hold water if he was, say, only addressing the car attack (the identity and the likely motive of the driver weren’t clearly established until later).
But he didn’t need more facts to forthrightly and immediately denounce the Nazis and associated low-lifes.
Then, he went on today to praise the rally on Friday night, which was a torch-lit Nazi march, and to say there were good people just concerned with defending Robert E. Lee on the alt-right side of the protests.
This is, needless to say, outrageous (good people don’t march together with protesters holding Nazi flags).
The press is exercised about two further contentions that I think are correct, namely that there was violence on both sides (even if the Nazis were the instigators and had a murderer in their midst) and that there is potentially a slippery slope from removing Confederate statues to statues of the Founders.
Many of his supporters no doubt loved this characteristically combative performance, but it shows that Trump couldn’t just let his Charlottesville statement from yesterday stand and rather than trying to rise above it, he’s happy to be no-holds-barred participant in the angry national debate in the aftermath of last weekend.

I've yet to see you show any outrage about people parading around openly displaying Nazi symbols like Swastikas in 2017 in America.
No outrage from you about that, huh?

Obama CHOSE to sit in Wright's church and listen to his racist, anti-semitic, anti-American, Marxist/Communist lunacy.
He CHOSE to make Wright his spiritual adviser.
He CHOSE to be married by that wackjob.
And Obama CHOSE to be friends and political allies with leftist wackjob and former terrorist Bill Ayers.
What has Trump done with David Duke?
e called Duke a racist and a bigot. That is a condemnation, Dim. Why are you pretending it's not?Misty » 15 Aug 2017 7:21 pm » wrote:February, 2000.
Matt Lauer: What do you see as the biggest problem with the Reform Party right now?
Trump: Well, you've got David Duke just joined. A bigot, a racist, a problem.
February, 2016.
Jake Tapper: Will you unequivocally condemn David Duke and say that you don’t want his vote or that of other white supremacists in this election?
Trump: Well, just so you understand, I don’t know anything about David Duke. OK?
I don’t know anything about what you’re even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists.
****. He declared his candidacy for first office in Ayer's home, and he had a reasonably close working relationship with him.Misty » 15 Aug 2017 6:57 pm » wrote: And PS, Obama was not 'friends' with Bill Ayers.
They might have crossed paths within the political circles in Chicago, but they were not 'friends.'
As she dodges Obama's truly ugly actual close associations after smearing Trump by mentioning David Duke's name.**** hypocrite.
Oh, so after calling them "racist wackjobs," I'm a "Nazi appeaser" now.I'm done with you.
You disgust me by not being able to say outright that people carrying Swatiskas and shouting racial epithets have no place in our society.
You keep trying to draw some kind of a moral equivalence, where there is none.
Both you and your lying BFF Huey can waste your time posting here if you want, but just know that whatever you post will be moved to the Peanut Gallery.
I will not be associated with racist/Nazi appeasers.
And I don't want that filth in my thread.

I know you're a whole lot smarter than me, so maybe you can answer this.
When the huge angry mob of people marching and carrying torches at the 'Unite The Right' rally in Charlottesville chanted, "Jews will not replace us,' Heebs will not divide us' and 'blood and soil' what did that mean?
Were those the 'good people' that 45 was referring to today?

The filthy racist Tiki torch carrying Nazis are being outed on Twitter, and they're whining like a bunch of babies.
Allsup is now claiming that he is being unfairly maligned as a racist, just because he went to a rally with a bunch of white supremacists, and was actually going to speak at that rally had it not been cut short.

Not any more he doesn't.
He called him a racist in 2000, then in 2016 he pretended not to know anything about him.Termin8tor » 15 Aug 2017 7:41 pm » wrote:He called Duke a racist and a bigot. That is a condemnation, Dim. Why are you pretending it's not?

You conveniently ignored that second part.
Another **** **** answer.
He knew exactly who David Duke was in 2016, but he needed the votes of the white supremacists, so he pretended not to know anything about him or them.
Your pathetic lies are even worse than The Liar-In-Chief's are.
You disgust me.
