And the 2 the days before. What did he say that was wrong or untrue. Everything Trump said was 100% accurate and truthful. I know why the lemmings on the left are mad. Trump Derangement Syndrome, simply put. Everything Trump says is bad. But, to everyone outside of the left and the mainstream media, everything Trump said was well reasoned, thought out, and 100% accurate. Specifically, tell me what Trump said about the event that was not true.

It doesn't matter what he actually said or didn't say. His enemies were prepared to attack, regardless.

There is nothing he could have said to appease the left. In fact, there is nothing he can do or say to appease them. He will be attacked and nitpicked throughout his entire presidency.

The content wasn't incorrect or offensive, but the timing sucked and he sounded totally unprepared as usual

well he was wrong that the counter protesters didn't have permits, they did, so he wasn't 100% accurate...

He said there were "good ones" on both sides, implying good Nazis and White Supremesist.

I'm assuming you agree with that?

In any event, it's not so much what he said but the fact that he can't say anything without becoming a paranoid, defensive manbaby. Sparring with the press. Generally looking like a complete idiot.

Expound on this. This isn't a good enough excuse for the OMG THE 4th Reich shite that is being passed around today.

This is the first time I've seen this. Where did you find this information?

You're assuming he could have said anything and gotten a different reaction.

A nazi killed a liberal. There was no way FNN, WaPo, et al were going to do anything less than tie this around Trumps neck.

Take a look at Obamas comments. The rhetoric was virtually identical to Trumps initial statements. Obama was praised and trump was destroyed.

As a Trump supporter, I found it questionable that he said that he wanted to wait until the facts were in. Not saying it wasn't true, but it seemed to be out of place considering he likes to react quickly. That being said, the rest of what he said seemed accurate. He didn't pull any punches, which was nice.

Which goes to his point of why it's wiser to wait until the facts have come out before making a narrower statement.

I saw nothing wrong yesterday. He condemned the violence on both sides. He said Nazis, KKK, and all bigotry is vile and has no place in this country.

I later saw a headline on CNN saying "Trump defends Neo-Nazis"

This truly is disgusting and upsetting. While Trump has said a lot of stupid shite, the media does their fair share in stroking the fire.

No he didn't. He said there were good people on both sides. Which is factual, not every person there protesting the removal of the statues were neo-nazis. Some were just concerned with white washing history. Just like what happened in New Orleans.
Same goes for the left protestors. I'm sure not all sought out to attack other people, and just to counter protest.

You know what they say about assuming.

So that's why you guys on the left are throwing a temper tantrum? Because he's defensive after being called a nazi sympathizer for no reason whatsoever?

He looked quite presidential. And FWIW, we elected Trump because he spars with the press and holds them accountable.

This isn't the Obama days where the press blows you on public TV daily. The press is the opposition. The Democrats just do what the press tells them.

I read somewhere that the identity of the killer had not been released at the time trump was briefed. Probably the same reason Obamas tweet was equally unspecific.
