Trump: “Sure, I'm willing to do that, but I would say, almost everything I see is from the left-wing, not from the right-wing.”


Can people STFU about him not condemning, or refusing to condemn, white supremacist groups now?!?

He did that long ago, Dems just pretend it didnt happen.

quote:

The day of that incident Trump said, “We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence, on many sides. On many sides.” Trump said he had spoken to Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, and “we agreed that the hate and the division must stop, and must stop right now. We have to come together as Americans with love for our nation and true affection — really — and I say this so strongly — true affection for each other.”
Two days later, on Aug. 14, 2017, Trump issued a statement from the White House, and referred to “KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.”

What pisses me off is militia groups get thrown in with whites supremacists. That’s bullshite. Militias are mentioned in the 2nd amendment.

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

Without hesitation he said ,"Sure." Done. Should be the end of it.

The problem is Joe Biden will not condemn Antifa which is an organized leftist group.

What about the next sentence when he told the Proud Boys to stand down and stand by?

Wallace also implied that white supremacist are equally culpable in the destructive riots going on in major cities.

Where it is 99.9% democratic paid activists.

you accidentally cut the question off where he's asked to say they shouldnt add to the violence and instead said they should stand by and encourages them to.

WALLACE: "Are you willing, tonight, to condemn white supremacists and militia groups, and to say they need to stand down and not add to the violence in a number of these cities, as we saw in Kenosha and as we’ve seen in Portland?"

TRUMP: "Sure, I’m willing to do that. But I would say almost everything I see is from the left-wing, not from the right-wing. I’m willing to do anything, I want to see peace."

WALLACE: "Then do it, say it."

TRUMP: "You wanna call them— what do you wanna call them, give me a name. Who would you like me to condemn?"

WALLACE: "White supremacists."

BIDEN: "Proud Boys."

TRUMP: "Proud Boys? Stand back and stand by. But I’ll tell you what. Somebody’s gotta do something about antifa and the left, because this is not a right-wing problem. This is a left-wing problem."

That's the first thing I thought of. Wallace tried to slide that in as if we've all been watching Klan rallies in Portland and Seattle. I didn't see it live, but I just watched a clip, and that apparently is the big deal from last night.

BLM good...Militias bad. BLM ambushes/murders Cops; but scrubs their Website of the Marxist cheerleading.

Millions of God-fearing people are going to 'join' a 'Militia', when the time arises for them to do so. Trump knows this, and will NEVER condemn these people. He said last night: "Somebody's got to do something".

Get ready for a 'Militia' march on DC...when Nancy tries to assume POTUS power...due to the electoral dysfunction.

September 8th seems a little late in the game does it not?

He's not saying the Proud Boys "should do something," he's pointing out that people are harping on white supremacy when white supremacists aren't causing all of this violence.

thats a valid opinion, sure, just dont act like its never happened

EDIT: to be clear he has condemned any violence and said those people need to be found and held accountable, on multiple occasions.

Well last night he was saying Antifa isnt an organization so it'd be easier for us to keep it straight if he could make up his mind.
