Can you admit that Trump could cure cancer and the left, along with some Republicans, would bitch that he just put a lot of doctors out of work? STFU

I interpreted it as Trump calling for peaceful protests and that it was an ugly day all around because both sides were instigating violence. The car driver was a murderer or terrorist - whatever you want to call him - but the violent people on both sides need to be condemned.

Way more people than before. Trump has his voice. He has used plenty of times before to get a message across.

Why has he ignored it till now?

Let's use your kid analogy.

This would be like you ignoring one kid beating your other kid for over a year, and then your kid that was being beat, kills your other kid, and in the press conference you say "well his brother was being mean too, so..."

Calling out the "alt left" is long overdue.

So no, it is not the wrong time.

Berkeley? All the other times ANTIFA or other left groups have been violent?



So the past? According to you the proper time to call out ANTIFA's unpermitted counter protest with the expressed intent for violence in this event was in the past before it happened?

Who applied for the permit to protest? If it was the white nationalist group, then if ANTIFA doesn't show up, does anybody get killed?


What a pussy. Nazis marching outside your door chanting kill Jews and "blood and soil" and you're like "bro, they have a permit".

I don't believe he has.

He has spoken about this sort of shite a lot, but he has never called out any specific organization/movement until the media pressured him to do so.

I've been searching for the topic you started after Obama praised BLM after the cop shootings. Dont seem to find it.

Presidents are entitled to opinions.... dont agree? Socialism will be very hard on alot of you... you just dont know it.

I really hope you're not as big of a stupid frick in real life as you play on the internet. It seems like more of an act that you play the constant contrarian and like to be the guy who goes against the grain of popular opinion and common sense. And if it's your way of entertaining yourself to get thru the mononitny of the work day I don't really blame you. I've always liked having a few alters on hand for the same purpose. But if it's not an act I really feel sorry for you and the people who come into contact with you.

Saying "well those others guys were being mean too!" when the other group literally killed someone is lacking all situational awareness.

The right time was after Berkeley. Did Trump call out ANTIFA after Berkeley? I can't remember. Or any other time in which ANTIFA was the main culprits of violence.

Trump handled this weekend awfully. Why couldn't he stop after Monday's statement?



The mother of the victim made a statement appreciating that's Trump called out both sides. Seemed to help her in her troubled time.

So there's your silver lining.

Based on the fact that you are starting threads about it, I'd say it was the perfect time.

Growing up in Mississippi, I've seen Klan marches. You know what we did? Laugh. They looked ridiculous and maybe twelve people showed up. The funny part being they were being protected and escorted by huge black state troopers.

But no. Now the media says being silent or calm means you are complicit in their message. To show you don't agree with them, you must hate them, by words and actions.

That's not how rational adults should act.

Do I hate white supremacists? No. I don't know them. I think they are idiots because of their message. Why resort to violence when their stance can easily be defeated with rational thought?
