re: This presser was also a rebuke to republicans in Congress who put him in a tough spot

Republicans in Congress followed Obama's lead and wanted Trump to use the presidency as a bully pulpit towards and for americans who hold hateful beliefs whether they be KKK, SJW, Alt-right, or BLM. You know just like Obama did when he fanned the flames in ferguson and subtly defended/apologized for the black nationalist dallas shooter.

Well, they got their wish and now they're going to have to deal with a shitstorm of lefty hate after the President called them out publicly as the vile shite stains they are.

Hope they're happy with that.

By they way, Trump himself did not refer to BLM, Antifa, or SJWs by name any time at all during the campaign even though he had every incentive to do so. He didn't even refer to republicans and democrats as liberal or conservative.

This past week was the first time in memory where Trumps specifically singled out Americans by an ideological box and you could tell he was pretty uncomfortable doing that.
